    2 stylish, skilled and tough guys, 15rds, 135lbs, neutral venue.

    Laguna probably the favourite imo, how do you see it?

    Very good fight.
    I lean towards Laguna myself...I think his footwork would keep him out of harms way for the most part against the left hook of DeJesus. Both would have their moments in a fast paced fifteen rounds.

    I think Lagunas height would be the difference.

    i can agree with those opinions, but i do think there is a chance for dejesus's hook to be effective as a counter to laguna's lead right hand, and the reach was similar despite laguna's height advantage.
