    He’ll get stopped in 6

    Rosales by brutal body shot. Rosales has had an outstanding year.

    Rosales, Round 7.

    Charlie Edwards is another one who is more bothered about fame than boxing in my opinion...

    Anyone know why he left Booth?

    Probably edge towards Rosales.

    Don't really get all the Casimero fight came to early business. With a limited pool of fighters it's unlikely that Casimero would even have a version of the world title had it been in a weight class with more active professional fighters (only 747 on Boxrec. Even Super Batamweight has 1,255).

    Can remember seeing Rosales fighting Kal Yafai in a tune up on a Brook undercard, which didn't even make TV - great career turn round.

    Yeah, I agree with these predictions.
    Rosales is in really good form lately, I doubt Edwards is going the distance, and would be genuinely surprised if he wins.

    i think he will do much better than Paddy Barnes -- may go the distance but winning is a big ask. Looks big at the weigh in compared to how Barnes looked beside him and he can box/move

    Rosales looked quite gaunt at the weigh in, and I saw him weighing in about an hour earlier too, checking, so he's definitely tight at that weight.
    That's part of life for flyweights though.

    I think Edwards has a good chance tonight. Rosales has had an amazing streak, but I'm still not greatly convinced. Barnes was catching him clean but had no power to keep him honest. Edwards does. Charlie Edwards points.

    Didn’t realise Edwards had left Booth. Does that mean Danny Vaughn will be running his corner?

    Impressive performance.
    Really wasn't expecting him to win or go the distance.
    I won't be surprised if Rosales moves up a weight class now.
