    Kal is certainly a tough fight for anybody and those other guys clearly have some sort of bias. Kal v Roman is the best though, as that is a true cross roads battle.
    Yea I agree except Choc fight I really believe he is totally shot.It goes really fast like that sometimes but it looks as if we might be able to find out.

      Maybe we're all being fooled by the rung rematch. I think I read that romans father passed away and his mental state clearly was not right.

      lets see how he does in his next fight..if he fights again.

        Chocolatito is done as far as I'm concerned but Hearn won't let that get in the way for a money spinner on another mismatched card by Mismatchroom full of late call ups.

        I'm pretty sure he'll have to meet Inoue down the road too. Inoue will do to Yafai what Spence did to Brook. Body snatcher of the division.
        He beat a tough undefeated fighter. Hardly hyped at all. Remember he fought before Katie Taylor, so he's not really being hyped or anything. Gonzalez is a good fight, see what he has left against an up n comer.

          Yafai is a solid world level guy, but he has very little chance against some of the killers at 115 i.e SSR and Inoue. It kinda feels like him and Ancajas are on the outside looking in at 115 atm. Hopefully this changes next year and he has a chance to prove whether he belongs or not.

            Yea we will see he don't sound like he is gonna retire.But I would not bet on him with any top 5-6 115pders.Really could see him losing to even lesser fighters.And I'm not a choc hater he is EASY HOF.But he looked bad before fight.And koes like that on a fighter already slipping a little will almost always finish them.But ive seen some stuff last 10-15 years that ive never seen before.Kinda like baseball during Mc and Sosa era.
