I wonder what Vera has left. From 2008 to 2013 the guy was upsetting top MW's on the regular. Even Chavez Jr at 170lbs but got robbed. He doesn't look the same anymore though. Korobov catching him at the right time but I hope Vera has one upset left.

Feels like it's been a while since I've seen Korobov in the ring. This should be easy work for him if he's still in good form.

Brian is turning in an opponent/trial horse type...If he had got the deserved decision vs jr, I think that would have changed things 2 allow him 2b more selective...

Doubt it, most guys cant go up in weight than drop back down, its like they lose punch resistance after getting hit by bigger men. Not saying Vera was on RJJ level but Roy was an athletic beast and look how it affected him.

Vera is getting murked.

Vera's been sounding punchy the last few times I've seen him, then again so has Alvarado. Not the best card to put together.

Oh that's not a bad fight. War Vera

It'll be competitive for a bit, but Korobov should take over by mid rounds. Vera just seems to run out of ideas by mid-fight. Doesn't adjust very well.
