    Oscar Rivas was ordered to fight Jennings next. Assuming he beats Jennings again. Romanov will fight the winner of that fight for the wbc Bridgerweight title


    Can Romanov beat Rivas? What are your thoughts vs his recent performance vs Kudryashov?

    Romanov has decent technique and an iron chin. Of course he can beat Rivas.

    If Romanov could ko Wilder, which he did in the amateurs, he can beat Rivas.

    It was meh, he's basic, don't think he beats Kaboom. (assuming that eye is healthy)

    He was poor.Had a gunshy Kudryashov in front of him and couldnt do anything.
    A basic plodder who faded late in not a Barrera-Morales pace.

    His last outing nothing special. Threw mostly arm punches against an opponent afraid to engage. Sure he can beat Rivas, but also lose to him.
