    That's an excellent question, the top 10 last year was separated by about 4 wins for 10 months, because we were all playing so goddamn strategically instead of going with who we really thought was going to win, I'd have won in a landslide had I stuck with my gut, but noooooo like an idiot I had to play it safe.

    Thanks to @CST80 for bringing him to attention. I haven't seen him fight before, after reading CST's break down on him here, I watched 4 of his fights on YT and came to the judgement that he had the talent to beat any version of Vargas, even before his 2 back to back brutal wars.

    Vasquez UD, Ugas SD, Green KO7.

    I'm not familliar with Karl and Ramirez, and don't know who Al wants to win, so I'm leaving that knowing there's about a 90% chance I'd guess wrong nowadays.

    Al wants the white hope redhead kid to win, he has plenty of come forward block punches with their face Mexican fighters.

    Ok, I'm going with Ryan 'readheaded stephchild' Karl by UD then...
    If I get another L because of that, I'll come after you though! ;)

    Same, I favour Ugas as the better boxer in terms of flashiness but Levan whilst being quite basic in his approach is actual very effective. He has a very tight guard, great counter jab, this fight actually reminds me abit of Jack vs Degale.

    Ugas has the better speed and footwork but he will have to be higher output for this fight because both men are counter punchers by nature.
