              For real every fight I watch of his I wonder if it will be the one where he shows his age overnight but he keeps winning I don't think Edwards is the one to beat him I don't rate him very high. Lol Michael Conlan looks like the reincarnation of Lloyd Christmas.

                  Not convinced Edwards is all that, but I think he might be catching Moruti at the right time. Think he boxes and moves to a big lead early, then hangs on to survive for dear life later on and escape with a decision

                      Yea I agree with your take, but I'm leaning the other way more. If Sunny builds up too much of a lead early through his own skills &/or cuz Mthalane is feeling his age he could build a lead that only fails him if he gets stopped. If Sunny doesn't get anything much going early its likely to be a bad night for him.

                              Definitely agree with the 2nd part, despite the age, I trust Mthalane's durability, workrate and engine to sustain him late and Edwards certainly doesn't have the power to take him out. Edwards HAS to bank the early rounds, or he's in deep trouble
