Who are you picking? I'm cheering for Palacios. I like his style and I really love Puerto Rican fighters so it is one reason why I am cheering for him. But.. Hometown's fighter Wlodarczyk is a very experienced fighter who has proven his skills against top fighters. I think Wloda who I guess is a favourite might be a too strong and experienced for Palacios..But let's see! Hopefully we'll get a good fight! Go Palacios! :bbb Weight inn: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwdyOGY0fv0[/ame]
Haven't seen much of Palacios quite honestly, but what I did see, I think Diablo will wear him down and win by late KO. Just think Wlodarczyk looks the more solid fighter.
I think Diablo takes this one although I'm not sure if he'll get the stoppage, depends on how durable Palacios is. Wlodarczyk is a good fighter - I was looking forward to seeing him in that Cruiserweight Super 6 that was propsed - I think he could have won it.
I like Palacios chances. He is a very confident guy and I dont think fighting over there will effect his performance. Wlodarczk is a very solid guy and well rounded fighter, but he didnt look very good in his last fight. Maybe he is on the decline and a hungry fighter like Palacios may expoloit that.
Palacios opens up so much while attacking that i can already see a counter hook from diablo wich sends him down for a count. Diablo Ko.
Palacios hasn't fought anybody. Wlod has a win over Steve Cunningham (altho he lost rematch), and has a win and draw with Fraggomeni. Palacios has faced taxi drivers and teddy bears, I say Wlod puts the hammer down.
Diablo on points. Palacios is durable, and Diablo will pick his punches like he always does, instead of looking for the KO like other CW's like Huck always do. Diablo's style is based on precision punching.
