Thank God they made weight! Too many fighters have been messing up as of late. Looks like Mendez made weight easy which is good since he seems to gas at times in the later rounds. Sounds to me like he is in excellent shape! WAR MENDEZ!!!

Finally the droughts over ... I can get some boxing back in my system !!! Barthelemy stopped the dude with a body shot in his last fight . I think he'll pull it out.

These guys seem fairly well-matched to me. What I find interesting is that, in a poll over at the Boxrec forum, over 90% of the guys are picking Barthelemy to win. I give Rances the edge as well, but I wouldn't go putting any cash on it. It's surprising to me how lopsided the poll is.
