    Say what you will , but Rolls is live cat in this one
    Rolls unfortunately has no power but I’ll give him credit , he can fughin box
    Not saying he’s got this in the bag but he’s a nice pick at 16/1
    Berlanga has not proven much besides the fact that he has that one punch power to turn the fight around
    But he needs to hit the guy , since he’s moved up in caliber he does a lot of missing
    Plus , he’s coming off two lacklustre performances
    $50 to make $800 is not a bad pick in my eyes

      Berlanga and Cotto shouldn't even put in the same sentence. Cotto was fighting name contenders and former/future champions when he was coming up. This guy hasn't fought anybody remotely threatening to him and looked average in his only step-up in class. For the moment, he is far more hype than substance.

        Offensively he is fine, it is his Defense and Head Movement that needs all the work

          You’ve found somewhere offering 16/1?

              They're talking about Berlanga possibly being ready for Benavidez in [maybe] a year. Not even close. Benavidez would knock Berlanga out in three rounds or less. I think we've all seen Berlanga being dropped in sparring by Erickson Lubin (154 pounds) with bigger gloves and head gear. His defensive flaws are MASSIVE. To be honest, I have no idea how he got so big. The early knockouts maybe? Perhaps. But, to a fan like myself, I'm not sold now nor have I been sold on him from the get-go. Not a hater. Just someone who, like most, has seen how they have tried selling us this young man as though he'll be the next PR star. Me personally, I believe much more in Subriel Matías and think he stands more of a chance of becoming the next "Campeón Puertorriqueño". This fight with Rolls will not show us more than we already know. He might not be "garbage" but he's definitely not Championship bound.

                8/1 too! It was 7/1 earlier.

                  Not saying he wins this but if he can keep him at bay , Rolls has a good chance of outboxing him ,imo
                  He’s a very decent fighter just has no power but he can box
