    No doubt that the person who voted for Zurdo is Lbok or Hanzcholo

    Poll you say. It will probably be 100 - 0 for Opetaia if 100 people voted. Just better at everything and faster with better power.

    Zurdo gets stopped early, as they say there is levels to this & Opetaia is on a higher level compared to Zurdo & most other CW's

    I just saw that, probably Zurdo himself lurking on the forum to see what people think.

    Look at what Opetaia did to Thompson last weekend, and now keep in mind that Zurdo was getting buzzed pretty good by a guy fighting outside of his natural weight class. Also remember that Opetaia is a much better boxer than Smith, so more of his big heavy shots would land.

    I see Opetaia outboxing him for a few rounds and then stopping him. And I'm kinda being generous to Zurdo in that estimation.

    Opetaia probably too intense and fast. Kid is hungry. I’d say Opetaia by decision, possibly a beatdown, but Ramirez is an excellent boxer. He should only perform better if they can keep him active.

    I don't like Ramirez's chances in this fight, Opetaia is boxing at a higher level and Ramirez is too soft for him, Opetaia can beat him any way he wants, outbox him all night or knock him out early...

    This is the fight that needs to happen next year. I favor Opetaia but I think Zurdo can prove to be a tough opponent for him.

    That will be a shame, I want Beterbiev to be the first person who stops Zurdo.

    I favour Opetaia but has he faced a fellow southpaw before? Could be interesting.

    Opetiaia will stop him but I think Zurdo will make it more competitive than people think; I underestimated Zurdo massively prior to his fight with CBS

    Opetaia gives Zurdo a dose that will make him wish he was born a woman.
