I see PBC matchmaking is still phenomenal, really thinking about putting highly entertaining fights together.

Eeeek, I had high hopes for Quiilin ever since his debut on HBO against Winky. He can be exciting but is no where near the lvl of GGG.Comment

Molina seemed like the worse version of himself on that night, and K9 will have 11 months of inactivity by the time he steps in the ring. All we can hope for is that Charlo KO's him quick so it doesn't turn into a 12-round snoozer.K9 vs Charlo is a good fight. K9 is coming off his career best performance against a guy who was top 3-5 in the division. There's no reason to hate on that fight.
Peter Peter bumpkin beater on the other hand is not relevant to me. I'm not wasting an hour of my time watching him fail in another showcase fight.
Quillin is the biggest name on the card and he's still in the undercard slot

I'm not ******. Simply making the point that NSB trashed Eric Molina as an opponent for Deontay Wilder, only to have him show up, fight his heart out and make a fight out of it in spots. It's been the cool thing to trash PBC on this site, and I'm simply pointing that out
Frederick Kassi, Wale Omotoso, and Curtis Harper were all no-name fighters who got an opportunity with PBC, came to fight, and performed comendably. Why is Zarafa not even given that possibility?
I've seen the one fight with Magomedov (after seeing the guy's record on BoxRec, I wanted to see how he performed at his lowest point as a pro); no idea how good Magomedov is, but Zarafa boxed okay from range and he didn't get hit clean with a ton of massive shots either. He looks like he's decently durable, all you'd expect really from a stay busy guy, so I don't get the hate for the fight.Comment

Going solely off of the Magomedov fight, to be blunt, it doesn't seem like he puts himself into position to get blasted off on with massive shots. He seems to know how to get around the ring a bit, so it'll come down to Quillin figuring out what he's doing, figuring out how to get past that to land his own shots, see how the guy's chin holds up (according to BoxRec, he's never been stopped in a fight), and land your own shots before fatigue starts to set in.
A stay busy fight is supposed to be able to put a guy through their paces, extend them for some rounds, and give a guy good work. No idea how good Magomedov is, but Zerafa not folding in that fight would have me thinking that there might be a fighter there.Comment
