    Definitely he was cutting just over 40lbs in camp to make weight .. that's a challenge in it self lol

    I would even say soon has to go into 175lbs in a year or 2

    Berlanga is probably the one man in the division who will make him look small.

    Berlanga is also a big weight bully too. Guy looks bigger than Bivol and Benavidez

    I'm actually looking forward to this, fight not really a fan of either but I'm curious to see who will come out on top. I think I'm leaning to Sheeraz, he has looked lacklustre so far but that could be explained by how much weight he was cutting.

    you’re saying he was walking around at 200? I don’t think that’s accurate. He’s on the slim side. Given his height I could see him being 180-185.

    Shocking hype for such a mediocre fighter. Pays to be a favorite of Turkey.

    To tell you the truth, I haven't been overly impressed with Hamzah Sheeraz. Given I've only watched one of his fights live, can't remember who he was fighting, but he look to do to an average at best fighter what a trained fighter is supposed to do to an average best fighter. Berlanga is still that weight bully brute who tries to put you to sleep with ever other punch. I'm not overly enthusiastic about this fight, but I will pay attention if I so happen to be in a room where the fight is on the screen.....lol

    Is he going to put on 20+ pounds after the weigh in? Because that's what Berlanga does.
