    Boza is the much better technician, I can see him landing the better shots to take it. Although he is going to ship a lot back.

    In Boza's early career in the UK he showed excellant boxing ability, but when he went to the States he became a fan favouriteby going to war from the off, I think he can take this, but he would be a dont blink ferocious affair, perhaps his pressure denying Diego that little time and space to execute ..a cute execution.

    That's the nuts thing about Chico though... his frame said to use time and space, everything he did said otherwise.

    Chico's power could turn the fight in a hurry, but Boza's constant punches would have Corrales on the defensive. Boza to take the lead & hold it till midrounds. the intetesting question is will Corrales wilt under the onslaught of punches. or would Boza get clipped by a huge punch like against Navarette, which Chico is quite capable of delivering.
    I'll probably have to go with Boza edging it by decision. He did hold up to bangers, Limon, Chacon, Arguello. without being kayoed.
