    Gavilan by UD, too savvy and is one of the few who may be able to take Cuevas' shots for the entire fight. Skill gap too wide.

    Gavilan by wide UD. Pipino would be embarrassed at times, but his shots wouldn't faze Kid.

    Great fight. I’d favor Gavilan, though. He didn’t really have any such thing as a bad style matchup, aside from Ray freakin’ Robinson. This one seems like it would be a barn burner, though.
