    I'd like to focus on ths a little more, but since I'm doing the other RBR, I'll just repost my rundown from teh prediction thread the other day.

    Valdez is a far smarter fighter than people give him credit for, and against the one southpaw I've seen him fight, he cut off thering very well and was consistently and correctly moving to his extreme left, almost Loma-esque movement, causing Tamayo to have to repeatedly reset. He was creating openings and landing his orthodox jab over his right, and was connecting his straight right and left hook with regularity. I was actually shocked has easily he was able to negate his southpaw advantages, and this was early in his career. So if he was that adept at it back then, under the tutelage of the Reynoso's, he'll be far more polished with a much better gameplan, I think he's going to pose a ton of problems for Shakur. Who let's be honest, has never really fought a puncher or anyone who can cut off the ring. I think it'll be a chess match for a while and Valdez will take over in the middle rounds, land something that rocks him and polishes him off. Yeah, yeah, Conceicao should've got the W, and guess what, I predicted he would. Because Conceicao is really damn big and really damn good. I think Robson would probably beat Shakur too.

    Troy Isley looked great getting a KO2, currently Cortes and del Bosque are having a tear up.

    That was a sick KO, wish they could put del Bosque's brain in Cortes' body. A lot of stuff he threw got a "that's clever" chuckle out of me but he just didn't have the strength/speed to be in the ring with Cortes.

    They just promoted Beterbiev vs Joe Smith Jr supposedly at Madison Square Garden, but I can't find any major site selling tickets.

    Anyone know what's up? A month and a half out you'd think there would be tickets on sale.

    I would say that's good news, because it won't interfere with the DAZN card, sadly I have a feeling this one will still be going another 3-4 hours.:lol:
