Romanov #5 Rivas #1 for Bridgerweight fight I like this fight. Assuming Romanov gets past his next opponent who would you say wins this fight for the Bridgerweight championship
I'm far more interested in the match he's actually having this month..... Evgeny Romanov vs. Dmitry Kudryashov Guaranteed to last all of about 1 to 2 round tops.
Most likely Romanov by KO. However, this is Kudryashov's first match at Bridgerweight (I hate that word) so there's a possibility that his chin will improve with the extra weight, also... will he have more power? Also, crazy things happen, like Romanov went the full 10 rounds against Bracamonte, who was subsequently KO1'd by the bummish Onoriode Ehwarieme. Dave Allen even took Bracamonte out 3 rounds quicker. So if he has an off night, and Kudryashov lans one of his bombs.Who knows... anything can happen.
Unortunately since he is one of mu favorite active fighters Kudryashov as looked dreadful recently. He is getting starched.
Rivas seems quite to be the man for the Bridgerweight division. He troubled Whyte in their fight, despite being less poweful. I think his explosiveness will trouble many fighters actually. He just needs to work on precision, he missed Whyte many times in that fight and lost energy in doing so. I'd go for a Rivas KO here...
