Abass Baraou was a legit opponent....Zayas called up everyone

Unified world champion at 23! You can't ignore Zayas anymore.

Boots and Ortiz need a belt ASAP!

I didn't think Zayas would win this fight. Really nice step up for him.

Want makes him legit because he had a belt? Lol

That dude couldn't beat Ortiz, Fundora, boots, Charlo and etc. Zayas needs a bigger showcase fight. If Ortiz doesnt fight boots. Thats the fight to make.

Boots will strip these guys of their trinkets. Ortiz will fight Spence next and then Dulorme after.

Solid performance and here you could see the difference between boxing on the backfort while still being active enough to win rounds and running. What Zayas did was boxing what Kelly did was running without any boxing.

I was rooting for Abass and i believe he could have done it if he turned it up earlier but i will pick him over many top 15 guys including Kelly.

I want Ortiz vs Kelly and Boots vs Zayas. Ortiz will make easy work and Boots will win a UD. Ortiz vs Boots is a true 50/50 both can stop the other guy and both can win on points. Winner fights the winner of Fundora vs Thurman. Bakhram fights Charlo or Madrimov
