    Four title fights in a really solid headliner in Saudi Arabia on November 22nd. They are:

    David Benavidez vs Anthony Yarde.
    Brian Norman vs Devin Haney.
    Jesse Rodriguez vs Fernando Martinez.
    Abdullah Mason vs Sam Noakes.

    Which fight are you most looking forward to? :chuck:

    Brian Norman vs Devin Haney. How will Haney the weight bully do against a good fighter his own size?

    David Benavidez vs Anthony Yarde, Brian Norman vs Devin Haney and Jesse Rodriguez vs Fernando Martinez, and Abdullah Mason vs Sam Noakes are all good matchups.

    Mason vs Noakes is somewhat interesting because Mason in the past has generally fought smaller men, blown-up featherweights, but Noakes is about Mason's size.

    Fair to say that Rodriguez vs. Martinez is the highest calibre.

    I am most excited to see Bam Rodriguez go up against a not over the hill live body. Martinez has beaten both Kazuto Ioka and Jerwin Ancajas twice. The man is no joke. This is a great test for both fighters.

    Needless to say, (so why am I saying it?) the other bouts are top notch as well.

    I have a hard time getting excited for fights in SA. All of the venues are always just terrible and lifeless.

    I am looking forward to Benavidez Yarde as I think it will be the most entertaining fight.
    I am looking forward to Haney Norman purely for the chance to see that gronk Haney get KO'd but he will likely run and try to stink the joint out.

    The odds for the fight are just off. Momentum is very important, and Bam is on a great run. However Martinez is a former Olympian and unfied world champion. This will be the hardest fight of both's pro careers. This will be the fight of the night, IMO. :chuck:

    One of the best things about finding this website is coming across quite a few fans who appreciate the lower weight classes. I live in the United States and, in general, that is not the case here. Cheers :beer-toast1:

    Bam vs Martinez might steal the show, but the whole card is stacked from top to bottom.

    Could probably make a case for all of them. It's a fantastic card. I picked Benavidez and Yarde, but it could be any of them that end up taking the crown by the end of the night.

    Norman Haney forsure. Haney looked scared in his last fight against Ramirez. How is he gonna look against Norman who’s not slow like Prograis which is the comparison he keeps getting.

    Watching Bam wreck Puma is going to make my weekend. I've seen quite a bit of **** talking by Puma fans and.... lol. Look, he's fun to watch and I like him, but this is going to be like a Mack truck going 75mph vs a deer.
