The battamweight fight has all the ingredients for fight of the year in that division. Mares, the winner of the Tour and the top battamweight faces the best boxer in his division. Most see the fight as a toss up, but I think Moreno will upset because He works behind his jab and is a great counterpuncher.
My prediction is that the fight will be very close, but Moreno will win in points.
I'm not sure if He will get the D, but I'm sure He will outpoint Mares.
mares wins this on pts. mares activity and combination punching will cause moreno to run more than he usually does. moreno will stink up this fight and will lose on pts.
I have Mares in this fight because of his intelligence and combinations. There is a chance he could get outworked but Mares can win if he outboxes him, picks his spots and uses combo's.
Style wise, Moreno is a tough fight no matter what.
I see a very close fight, one in which I think Moreno should win on points. Mares is the Showtime favorite though so I see Mares getting a controversial decision for some reason.
