So who wins this batttles of the Superfly’s? I am much more familiar with Tapia than Watanabe but I am trying to get more acclimated.
Could go either way. Watanabe would not struggle to find Tapia, but Tapia would force Jiro to fight at a pace he usually avoided. Watanabe a real sharp shooter, but Tapia was nails. Who knows. Between Tapia and Saldivar all I see on the front page is hypothetical matchups.
Bump. This is a bout I legitimately struggle to choose a winner. Both exceptionally skilled and talented. If I had to choose, I'd have to go watanabe. Some of the struggles Tapia had with Ayala, and some questionable tactics, always made me doubt. Watanabe was also a hell of an offensive talent, with both boxers having exceptional movement, which I think is key for Watanabe in a bout that starts cagey and becomes quite exciting. Very close.
