    lol I don't know about sport bars in Tokyo. I will be busy during the fight anyway. My wife wants to go shopping in the Ginza district. If your schedule opens up, let me know. If my schedule permits, we can meet somewhere. If not then maybe next time.

    He's underrated. Besides me bigging him up where do you see him get rated highly in general?

    Leon is probably already in a car headed to Michigan. He will end up evading arrest.

    Make sure you go to GU and Uniqlo in Ginza. They're next to each other. Super cheap qualty clothes. There's an H&M around there too close by. I'll let you know though.

    Round 1 Russell 10-9
    Round 2 Russell 10-9
    Round 3 Russell 10-8
    Round 4 Escandon 10-9
    Round 5 Russell 10-9 Very Close

    Russell landed the cleaner shots, but Escandon overwhelmed him with volume, Russell barely wins it.

    Selby is very underrated and so is his resume.

    Wins over Montiel, Viorel Simon, Ryan Walsh and Stephen Smith is solid.

    He just needs to get momentum up and fight more regularly.

    When he beat Gradovich he was getting high praise but then he went on a bum tour and fought seldom, so the hype died out.

    Round 2 Russell 10-9
    Round 3 Russell 10-8
    Round 4 Escandon 10-9
    Round 5 Russell 10-9 Very Close
    Round 6 Escandon 10-9 Very Close

    Ridiculous workrate from Oscar, although Russell landed the more hurtful shots, including a series of uppercuts, he didn't throw enough.
