Official thread: Yonnhy Perez VS Abner Mares, who R U Picking?

[Junito-Rulez]

Who do you think will win this high profile bout between colombian Perez and mexican prospect Mares?

Mares is 2-1 in the amateurs against Perez and they used to be train together. Both undefeated , Mares faster and more skilled; Perez more experienced against top opposition, bigger and stronger.
My personal opinion is that people forget that Perez was a very good amateur fighter and sell short his boxing ability. Mares won't walk through him. It'll be a hard fight.

Who R U picking?

Im going with Perez but it will be a tough exciting fight

You always get good fights with two young undefeated guys....

i'm going with Perez but it really is a 50/50 fight, i think though that Perez will be stronger in the later rounds and that might just win him the fight

I was pretty much stuck on my pick until I read something that Nacho said in an interview about how Mares might not be able to keep up with Yohnny for 12 hard rounds. Now I see Perez winning a close decision.
