Winner vs Crawford in Dec

Troy should get this. Obara looks like a durable guy, sloppy, but well-conditioned. Troy is overall better.

How is he the mando. His last fight was vs someone who was making their pro debut that's rediculous. And the fight before that was a draw. Should make him vs rances be an eliminator. He's not even ranked 1 he's number 3

Hopefully Crawford gets the winner to UNIFY!

Remember when Canelo almost beat Mayweather and only lost by MD?

No, the Obara-Castillo fight was for the IBF mandatory, and seeing how badly Obara got robbed in that fight its only fair, his latest fight was just a stay busy fight, really excited for this matchup

oh ok tbf i didnt see the fight, but still i would assume having a draw (robbery or not) would mean there will be another eliminator

There was to be a purse bid ordered for Obara-Castillo II but Castillo reportedly turned it down . The 1st fight should have been a clear cut victory for Obara but he blamed himself for not knocking Walter out. Obara is surprisingly pretty skilled and has decent power but is up against a real puncher in Troyanovsky and fighting in Moscow so he has to be a pretty big underdog.
