    He wilm be a highlight reel KO for someone at 135 as well.

    Had to be done. I don’t expect he’ll be nearly as successful there, not with the bevy of talented guys there. Particularly after getting waxed like he did vs Valdez, which I suspect is the beginning of the end for Berchelt.

    Heavy hands means big puncher. His power won't be effective at 135. If it is, I will be surprised.

    Fine. If heavy hands means to to you then let me rephrase it: "Berchelt has good power for a world class boxer. Not one punch KO power, or concussive power, but enough to beat down though opponents. And enough to crack some sturdy chins like that of Jason Sosa."

    How many examples of guys can you give who moved up in weight and their opponents showed 0 respect for their power?

    Why do you keep bringing up power?Berchelt has plenty of power to hurt fighters at 135. That should the least of Berchelt's worries especially when he loops his punches with his chin high up in the air.
