Was hoping that he would face someone like Fernando Martinez but at least he'll finally be getting even more exposure, especially as a co-main event for a big fight like Canelo vs GGG 3.
Wow, Gonzalez is only 25 years old and this will be his 4th shot at a world title. That's ridiculous.
Not the best opponent available but at least Bam is staying active. Hearn just cause you found a new star in those lower weights dont forget about guys like Chocolatito who should be active too. Its about time he fights again cause hes not getting any younger he needs to stay active too cause unlike Bam time isnt on his side. Hes the little drama show he should be on that Canelo vs GGG card aswel.
What's with those mexicans in the lower divisions ? They look extremely alike. Like this Gonzalez guy looks like 4 or 5 other guy in the near 4 divisions. WTF ? Not to mention that he lost every single good fight and after 12 rounds, he fights 8 rounds,(last two) which is weird.
Israel has great handspeed, a solid engine, a chin of steel and a lot of top level experience at a young age. Seeing as he's likely to have improved a lot in his time boxing, I reckon he has a decent chance here.
