    Thell probably make him against the winner of Leo-Kameda but him against someone like Stephen Fulton or nick ball would be interesting. Both totally different styles

      I think he easily smashes the other 126 champs. I doubt Ball or Leo fights him.

        I think he crushes Leo, Fulton and Ball. Espinoza won't be tested at 126 until Monster moves up. There are more competitive fights at 130 for him.

          I bet these little men got paid subsistance wages. Not millions for sure. For Espinoza to mention the monster lets us know 126 is not a challenge. 130 and Vaquero, Oshaky, Nunez, target rich.

            Espinoza does get hit a lot. Someone like Vasquez but with more power could spell problems for him. Wouldn't mind seeing him against Carlos Castro.

                He will crush Fulton and Ball but Leo might wreck him.

                  He does get hit, but I think in this particular fight he was more willing to take more risks because of Vasquez's lack of punching power, Edward is bit unorthodox, skilled and quite tough but if he had hurt Espinoza at some point, I doubt Rafael would had be willing to stick in the pocket to land uppercuts and hooks. He can utilize his reach and box when he wants to compared to let's say Fundora.
