    Would Kenty have a chance?

    Yes, but for some reason, I think Cervantes edges him over 15.

    Both tall, rangy fighters, but that is where the similarity ends. Cervantes' pin-point punching ends this in 7.

    Sean O'Grady beat Kenty up pretty bad, and Sean was not Cervantes.

    Cervantes probably beats Kenty good, floors him in the middle rounds, and takes a 15 round UD.

    It depend on how Hilmer fights him. If he attacks like he atypically did during his title run, then Pambele's countering will make Kenty pay for his aggression. If Hilmer sticks and moves with the blinding speed he used on John Montes, then he has a better chance at stealing a decision. I still wouldn't put money on it.

    Ralph Racine dropped Hilmer twice.
    He was lucky to finish the fight.

    Kenty wouldn't have made it past round 8.
