    He was slowing down but I don't think to the extent that he would've gotten stopped in a couple rounds more. Whitmire quite clearly won that imo and it seems a tad generous giving Munoz those last two rounds buy hey-ho.

    Of course he clearly won, I wasn't disputing that. Hence why I said make it an 8 or 10 rounder and Munoz stops him. Sure, he was still competitive and did well, but add another 4 rounds I could see Whitmire hanging on for dear life.

    Rooting for Gonzales here, but I think his chin will let him down here.

    I wouldn't shock me in the least if Hurd lost this, possibly by KO.

    Not sure about that, Hurd doesn't pack the power of a Tellez.

    His record at 160 is dreadful.

    Never really liked Hurd. His style kind of grosses me out in a way that I struggle to really pinpoint why. That said, if he has anything left in the tank he should win here.

    Athleticism over substance. His entire style is build around his physical advantages over his opponents.
    His main line of defense is to lean back as far as possible, which is a very negative stylistic choice.

    Round 1 Gonzalez 10-9

    Hurd rocked him with a jab, but Johan won the rest of the round on activity.

    Tanks fighting on another card, so I don't think he does

    Round 2 Gonzalez 10-9

    Hurd did some nice work to the body, but still got outworked, and Johan's landed a few vicious overhand rights.

    I think that's part of it but also how he employed his athleticism and size so gracelessly. I quite like watching physical, grimy fighters as long as they knew how to work smartly while imposing their size. Guys like Jose Luis Castillo for example. Hurd just kind of walks into his opponents and lets his hands go. There isn't much craftiness or even cohesion in his style. Everything he does seems so forced and manual somehow.
