    I'm rooting for Muratalla to pull the upset but he's going to need to take risks to win this, the way I see it is Cruz will whitewash him 12-0 maybe even get a late stoppage. Cruz is just to sharp and too skilled

    I have a weird feeling Muratalla is going to pull it of tonight. Sure, Cruz getting badly wobbled against Moran was preceded by a head clash, but Moran was having a lot more success than most of Cruz's previous opponents, and Muratalla all around is a much better boxer than Moran. He cuts the ring off quite well, his left hook is unpredictable and fast, he can punch while moving forward fluidly, he doesn't have to set his feet to punch. He throws punches from awkward unpredictable angles and his punch selection is quite varied. He's also fairly heavy handed. So he's unlike anyone Cruz has fought to date. I think this is going to be a hell of a lot harder fight for Cruz than most are anticipating and if Cruz is packing glass, which I think he is, he might get stopped tonight. The skill gap between Cruz and Muratalla has been overstated by almost everyone.

    That's what makes this fight. Are you picking him in the league?

    Yes! First daredevil pick of the year, which probably shouldn't be considered one.

    I doubt it'll be easy for either guy. Muratalla has a habit of leaving himself open after he jabs to the body, I think Cruz will be able to exploit that. A lot of Muratalla's flaws were highlighted against Farmer, so I hope he's tightened up & fine tuned in the gym for this fight. Cruz ain't untouchable & working with Bozy, I think puts him at a range that Muratalla will prefer. It's a really good match up & I'm looking forward to the fight.

    I miss those days when Hart was an undefeated prospect with a lot of hype and upside. Sucks he never lived up to his natural abilities.

    He did alright. The real shame is that his career basically ended at 30. I wonder what happened? Top Rank took really good care of him up to the Smith fight, which was another big opportunity for Hart.

    He should have beat Zurdo and Smith. He’s more talented than they are but he just didn’t have those intangibles to get the victory at any cost.

    He was too soft to make it. In the Smith presser he admitted he cried for three days after Hopkins was defeated by Joe Smith. For grown man to say something like that is just silly.
