      Mensah looks timid and overwhelmed.

      Machado will knock him out.

        Agree, but never under-estimate a Ghanaian, they're usually warriors.

        Then again, I remember that Machado didn't look that good when he won the title. Corrales was outboxing him at will, then his tank remained empty all of a sudden, probably due to the unsuccessful efforts of making weight.

          Mensah is hot garbage. Terrible mismatch.

            I know how durable Ghanaian boxers are but Mensah should have had about 2 or 3 fights outside Ghana and on a bigger stage before this title fight.
            He would have done better if he had had a better exposer.

            I feel he can do better if he drops down in weight to featherweight because of his size.

              Correct, buddy. And Machado has improved, for good measure.

                  I bet on Mensah winning, plus on Munguia winning inside two.

                  Total failure... At least last week I had won a nice lump by betting on Pacman inside the distance
