    We got:

    Roman Gonzalez vs. Sor Rungvisai II (a rematch of a FotY contender, should be another exciting war while it lasts)

    Nayao Inoue vs. Antonio Nieves (which is basically a showcase and introduction of the Monster to the American public)

    Carlos Cuadras vs. Juan Francisco Estrada (potential FotY)

    Who else is excited for this card? Such a refresher from the circus fight we had and also a damn good appetizer for next week's real PPV fight.

    Yes i am. Been waiting for Inoue to break out in America for a while now, he really does seem to suit the name Monster. Seems like forever since Gonzalez fought and Cuadras and Estrada is just a tasty match up, cant see how that one could be a bad fight. Havnt even checked to see which if any British telly stations is airing this one.

    I agree. It's a pity that it is shadowed and sandwiched by 2 of the biggest events of the year.
    Looking forward for 2 Top operators in Cuadras and Estrada.
    Plus a breakout performance for the Monster and keen to see if Gonzales can even the score with the Thai.
    Probably best lower weight fight anticipation since Carbajal-Chiquita.

    In addition, Gonzalez says that if he wins the rematch he'll fight the Monster next. Great fight!

    I really do hope both make a statement then. Huge props to both of it happens especially for Gonzales if he were to take on in prime bigger Monster.
    P4P Flyweight Showdown, rare indeed.

    War Chocolatito. As for El Gallito and El Principe, may the best man win. Although I'll be rooting for El Gallito.

    Don't sleep on these ones. All 3 fights are genuine world class showdown.
    I hope Gonzales is not damaged. He was struggling in their first fight although i have him winning comfortably on points.
    Bring me Chocolate Monster in 2018!

    2 pound per pounders in action plus 2 top rated fighters. What a card!
    I have Chocolatito won the last fight, but with an aging champion especially with his style, I am not certain he can produce the same intensity performance or if he can alter his style.
    But I will root for his win so we can get the mouth watering match up with Inoue.

    Might be the best card in the 20 years I've been watching boxing. I thought I saw a predictions thread for the card the other day...

    Estrada decision. Smarter boxer, sharper puncher, I think he pulls off an 8-4 maybe 9-3 decision.
    Inoue knockout. Will convince anyone who doesn't yet rate him as one of the very best p4p that he's the best combination of speed and power since RJJ.
    Gonzalez stoppage. Avoids the cuts that kept the first one too close, brings more speed and a bit more lateral movement, wins every round before a late ref mercy stoppage.

    Inoue a G. He's been wanting and calling out Roman for at least 2 years. He's the definition of hungry.
