dan rafael reports that the winner is mandated to face Dzindziruk. luckily Dzindziruk is fading, which means angulo/yorgey have a better chance to take the title from him.
Yorgey seems like a swell guy! But the book makers have angulo as a 14 to 1 favorite, -1400! Angulo is going to destroy yorgey... Angulo by TKO 2
I'm going with that too, Yorgey by UD in a shocker. I've saw both guys fight and it is possible Angulo can stop Yorgey if Yorgey can't take his shots, Yorgey took Hearns's shots ok in their fight, he can box well and throw hard shots when needed.
I have Angulo by KO 7. But the fight that interests me much is Dawson v. Johnson. I had the Road Warrior winning the first time, it's just sad to think the many times such a classy hard-working guy gets robbed out of victory... I think he will vindicate that first loss by a controversial and close SD/UD. Hope.
Yorgey will not win this. My favorite fighter is Thomas Hearns, yet his son Ronald is not a great fighter. It is not his fault, he just started too late. Yorgey is in this fight because he beat Ronald Hearns, but in my mind Ronald lost because he was inexperienced. If Ronald had another 10 fights he would have beaten Yorgey. Fact is Yorgey is overrated. Angulo by decision or late knockout.
People who pick Yorgey are underestimating Angulo. It was obvious to notice that Angulo was not himself against Cintron,and he still made it real close in a rematch Angulo would probably stop Cintron. Also Yorgey is a decent fighter but nothing special hes maybe a top 20 fighter at best. Angulo is a big step up for Yorgey im going with Angulo by 7th round tko.
allot has been made from the ronald hearns fight yogeys is a club fighter he was chosen to pad hearns record he was a club fighter entering the fight and a club fighter leaving it
Yorgey may have to walk through fire, but I think he can get the job done. If he can keep this one from turning into an outright brawl, maybe he will prove to be a more technically sound fighter than El Perro.
