      IT will be on fox deportes thank god. This will be a much better card than that garbage hbo is showing

But no one is sleepy on rojas this is a tought fight that should be on hbo I think jhonny has a slight edge but only slightly bc of his great power and has been looking great with nacho
        Agreed. I like Jhonny in the fight, but can definitely see the upset happening too - a lot of it has to do with the fact that I think Rojas will be able to land and with Jhonny being a bit soft between the ears, it may give Rojas some big confidence.

        I think a lot of people won't give Jhonny the big credit he deserves if he dominates this fight either though. This is a tough one, stylistically. And like I said, Rojas dominated Ao and Ao is a REALLY good fighter. I like featherweight though, great division to watch right now. Wonder if Garcia can measure up.

          Yeah no doubt Ao is a great fighter the best or second best in superfeather weight but that all rojas has done. IF he cathes jhonny he might get the ko but I really doubt any one is outboxing gonzalez. Not high on garcia lets see how he does against cab who people are sleeping on

            I'm sleeping on Cab big time. He just seems too inconsistent. When he shows up, he's a nightmare for any and everyone. But, he's got to show up. He strikes me as a guy who either doesn't like fighting as much anymore, or cant get himself up for any fight other than a big one.

                Caballero has been hittable at 126+, and Garcia is pretty tall himself. I doubt he gets flustered by Caba's volume (if he dares). He's also very dangerous for Jhonny, who's less hittable lately and can definitely outbox (even punish) Mikey, but has no margin for error.

                Caba would be a good candidate to go to Indonesia and relieve John of that belt, if he loses to Mikey and doesn't take too much punishment.

                  He called for this fight which must mean he is confident on beating garcia. That reach and volume will give garcia problems but with garcias power and cabs shtty defense I could see garcia stopping him

                      It has to be someone who's out of favor with US tv execs, Caba fits the bill. De Leon is promoted by GBP and still gets some tv time. Plus the WBA love them some Caballero, tho not sure if they can mandate that fight, with John's super champ status.
