Zaveck IMO hasn't gotten the respect he deserves. Not a top 5 guy, but definitely one of the toughest in his division. If not for the bad cut he'd have beaten Berto, and it would be great to see a rematch between them.

He's tough as nails

I'd like to see him test some up and coming prospects this year, a fight against Spence would be good

yeah, i agree. He was beating Berto but the cuts ruined his work, not a surprise Berto get caught on steroids when he was preparing for Ortiz 's rematch. I believe he was on something vs Zaveck too,anyway he is tough and a very good boxer.
