    The bus driver will get his 9th loss, SMH. Khan's gonna be too big, his reach, speed will be too much. Soto is an okay fighter at best but i've never seen him beat other good top fighters. Every time he steps up and gets a chance to get a real big win, he loses. Sure he beat the Antillon's, Juarez's, old Jesus Chavez and past his best David Diaz, but those are not eye-opening opponents either.

        Not a very good fight. Moving Soto up to JWW just makes him target practice for Khan, who is probably going to fight relatively safety first. Cotto-Trout will make up for it.

          I bet Khan is a little pissed about it. He probably thinks he should be the one to headline the event.

              After that KO, I think Khan is going to be gunshy and play it safe. I hope I'm wrong.

                soto and mathysse was a give and take fight until thost last few punches landed. soto is a very good offensive fighter.

                that said, he's been in a lot of wars, and he's coming off of his own stoppage loss. he took a beating over the course of that fight.

                not a horrible fight for an undercard on showtime.


                both are warriors. if soto can handle the speed and the size he might make a nice fight of it. khan's chin is khan's chin.

                    Khan is on a losing streak so I can understand. 2 Fighters looking to make their way back. Khan by KO rd 3.

                    I'm glad Showtime is giving me motivation to keep my subscription.

                      but he did face two great great fighters. He faced guzman who is was a beast and still has the goods. He also faced matthyse. He did pretty good against matthyse in the early rounds.
