    Damnit. There are too many intriguing matchups this weekend, this probably gets forgotten in the mix

      This should be a hell of a fight. Shame he never made weight but still looking forward to this one. Yafai by points or late stoppage.

        It sucks that Concepcion missed weight.
        Yafai is a big Super-Flyweight so I doubt he'll be at a weight disadvantage, but still very unprofessional from Concepcion.
        I think Yafai can end up being the big surprise at 115 pounds. He may be the biggest fighter in the weight class and he's definitely skilled. He has the deepest amateur background out all the top guys at 115.
        Well, Arroyo and Cuadras also had good amateur backgrounds. Only Arroyo has a case for having a better background though.

        Concepcion is his first real step up as a pro for Yafai, so I want to see how he looks before making any further comments. A lot of questions will be answered.
