This is a great fight. As was Zepeda vs Ramirez. Any combination of those three is fireworks. I see a lot of people favouring Zepeda in the power department though. And yet Prograis clearly has the best power stats. Not to mention, i think that Prograis seems to have the better chin. So I personally think, if there's a stoppage it'll come from Prograis. I can't help but think that, people are reading too much into his wins over, a chinny Baranchyk, and a mouthy Vargas, who totally overestimated his level. It reminds me of Taylor, Ramirez. Lots of people were saying Ramirez was the bigger puncher. But that wasn't the case. As Taylor had stopped or dropped everyone except Prograis. Not to mention Taylors better chin. He'd never been dropped but Ramirez had. And Taylors power proved to the greater. I see that happening for Prograis in this fight. That said, it's a close one and I'd give Prograis the edge. But I like both these guys and may the best man win. It should be a barnburner.

I hope Chon wins but if Baranchyk could put him down that many times, he might not get up from Prograis. Zepeda will need to be on his best Defensive game against Prograis to win.

That would be my concern for Chon. He has good power also, but Regis has a granite chin. If Chon wins, it's on points. If Regis wins, it could be points or stoppage. That in my opinion, gives Regis a slight edge. But I like both and will be delighted for whoever wins, and gutted for the loser.

Prograis versus Zepeda should turn out to be one hell of a fight, I've said it before, but it bares repeating.
These two fighters are top notch warriors in their perspective 140 pound weight division, this will be WAR!

I think Regis wins this zepeda seems overated a bit. His fight with baranchyuk hasn’t aged well prograis has power in both hands it should be fun while it lasts

Its about damn time! Love Regis but was beginning to worry about him slipping into a demetrius andrade like oblivion, with his best years being wasted away. Still think he is the best at 140 besides Taylor though. Love Zepeda too. Listen, iron sharpens iron. These two will go at it. My money on Regis but he will have to earn it no doubt. Just hope poliTRICKS of boxing dont get in the way.
