salvador sanchez death date was just yesterday correct?
do we get a sanchez vs gomez type of war
abner should be the educated warrior showing more boxing skill yet letting his hands go
and of course leo is volume as gomez except for the times he was hurt and tired in that bout

potential fight of the year and should pull pbc's highest ratings to date

One division at a time, boss mang, one division at a time.

You're just noe fighting your first legit world class opponent of your career at 126... and your power has waned with increase in weight.

Donaire was talking about going ad high as 135 140 and he had actually blasted through some serious competition at numerous weights... but we saw wot happened to him just at 126 and now he's back at 122.


Although LSC is a bit taller and ranger than Donaire, and appears to have better genetics and body frame regarding muscle to body fat per pound ratio.
