That's not exactly correct.

This date last year fell on a TUESDAY.
Ouma & Candelo fought on a Saturday night.

I know it was in early January. That was crazy, I picked Ouma, but not by KO. I think he might outbox Jantuah, or Jantuah will just blow him out. Either way, I'm excited.

Jantuah is a big time puncher....& Ouma is not hard to catch. But, the S.O.B. seems hard to hurt, & harder to discourage.

I think he'll get through Jantuah's best & just do his thing.....pressure, & lots of shots from all over the place.

Ouma by decision.

Ouma has one loss, by first round KO. We all know Jantuah is a big puncher, and a quicker starter.
