    Jai called Gilberto to set up the fight but he answered “Zurdo? No no Mi llamo diestro” and hung up.

    I pick jai to win but zurdo don’t seem like the type to duck anyone and he has fought way more world champions than opetia.

    Gilberto (he doesn't deserve a nickname) is ducking as he doesn't want to get ****ed up by a soon to be top 5 heavyweight who is vastly better than him in every department.

    He's waiting for Opetaia to move up to the heavyweight division to avoid fighting him...
