    This is a pretty good fight and at $25 won't break the bank.

    Both of these guys are on a roll lately and while this is only for the IBO featherweight title, good things are sure to be in store for the winner.

    The undercard features an attractive match-up between the always battle-ready Tyrone Harris moving down from lightweight and FOTY participant Miguel Roman (who is a quality late substitution for the injured Juan Carlos Salgado).

    Rounding out the action is a super featherweight clash between Sergio "Bam Bam" Torres and Gamalier Rodriguez, in another installment of the Mexican and Puerto Rican rivalry - and a few 4-rounders.

    I like Gonzalez to win this on points, and man do I hope Tyrone Harris gets a win. I think he will

    This is $25 and people wont pay £15 for the Mag 7 because Barker pulled out?

    i've been impressed by asiku, i've been upset that he's never had the opportunity, so i'm intrigued to see if he can deliver, in america, vs the biggest name opponent of his career.

    reckon gonzalez outboxes him early, adds some nasty power shots, but feels asiku's strength in the middle rounds and folds, getting taken out savagely.

    asiku stoppage, but it might take a long time as asiku isn't the smoothest or most efficient of operators. i would be surprised if gonzalez completely outclassed or stopped him.

    both have a lot to fight for, so hopefully it's a great fight.

    I am covering this fight tonight for a website...I'm pumped to see Gonzalez in person, one of my favs for a while. I am surprised nobody has picked Gonzalez by KO yet. I think Askiku will be aggressive, making for an exciting fight, but I think Gonzalez gets him out late.

    The Roman-Harris fight is a toss-up to me, I think Roman will get the win, as Harris has had some tough losses lately.

    I am also excited to see heavyweight prospect and former U of M football player Quadtrine Hill...I had a chance to speak with him for a while and think he would be a great personality for the division. May be a bit undersized in the long run, but apparently his power is legit. He just recently moved to the WildCard Gym, as he told me Freddie Roach wanted to keep an eye on him.

    btw: Why is the poll closed?

    One helluva fight, wouldn't be surprised if it produced a FOTY candidate, but a short fight is also possible, they can both punch and can be hit.

    Who does everyone like in the co-feature?

    I think Harris will bravely hold the fort for several rounds, as usual - but Roman will grind him down with consistent body work.

    Saying that, just a hunch, its a 50-50 fight, maybe more in Gonzalez' favour if I'm honest. Just a feeling though.

    Jhonny Gonzalez!!! I expect to see a stunning KO by him..

    JI Hoon Kim's ***** Tyrone Harris?? He's a hot and cold fighter but at least he beat QUintero so he's so slouch.. I would have loved to see him test Salgado who might be a one hit wonder.
