I think Mares team is pretty confident in this fight, but I honestly think Perez is too big/strong and has improved a lot over the past year or so. Perez UD 8 rounds to 4.

Originally posted by Iceta Lives View PostLike I said. Nacho Beristain. And Mares is familiar with Perez's style because they fought three times as amateurs. Mares won two out of three. A lot of people forget that he beat Juan Ma Lopez too. If you want to talk about a guy that hasn't proven anything, look at Saul Alvarez. And even Angulo up to an extent.

He is 24, his career will hardly be over if he loses tonight to one of the best bantamweights. As already mentioned, he also had a detached retina, which actually threatened his whole boxing career.
Granted, the step up in opposition is huge with the Perez-fight, so fingers crossed...
