Terence Crawford vs. Yuriorkis Gamboa & Matvey Korobov vs. José Uzcátegui RBR

I am picking the Cuban.......next week doe

Foot movement too good for Canelo

 

Signing in & reporting for duty atriot

Give me Korobov and Crawford, both by stoppage

 

I hear the korobov is gonna be a war

 

Good fight tonight.

My pick is Crawford by decision, but a stoppage win has decent possibility too.

Close to a 50/50 fight here...

 

Gamboa is too laid back in there sometimes in recent fights

Bring the beast out from the get go

 

It wouldn't surprise me at all. I'm expecting Korobov's skill to carry the day, but if he's got any kind of chin issue, Uz has the power to crack it.

 

Id like to sse the Gamboa of old. Might be wishful thinking

 

Korobov vs Utzegui is gonna be a telling bout.....

Korobov's been on the fringe of contention for 4 yrs now, having beaten Findley waaaaaaay back in 2010.
Finally he's getting an eliminator, sadly, vs a relatively unknown Mexican who's making his first trip outside his home country.

at 23 y/o, and with a better overall record, Utzegai seems to have a greater upside, though Korobov is not your typical Eastern Block banger....he's a smooth boxer with a great body attack.

BUT.....he's 31, and if he doesnt make it tonight, his future as a MW contender is likely over before it started. :think

 

Gamboa since Ponce de Leon has been highly inactive and not that impressive against modest opponents in those fights. He is 32 years old while Crawford is 26 and coming off that great showcase win over Burns overseas. Crawford has big dimension advantages over him as well... And during the layoff, let us not forget Gamboa being caught up in that Miami PED lab controversy.

Everything points to Crawford on paper.

 

UtZ can crack and korobov does have tendency to stand in front
Of
Opponents

 

Yea nonito the PED Miami thing ....gamboa be looking different lately

 

50 cent probably will rap gamboa into the ring

 

Hopefully:good

 

victor pasillas is fight on the undercard awesome. I think his style is the closest thing to edwin valero, but without power.
