Hurd vs Williams is on!

[FinitoxDinamita]

This matchup is perfect contrast of styles, I love it. Brawler-Stalker vs the classic boxer-Puncher.

When i first saw Williams I saw shades of a young hopkins and if he can fight the perfect fight ala hops-Tito , Hops-Pavlik, he can win.

I might bet on him depending on how he looks in training.

I haven't seen that reported anywhere. And his fight night weight has been less than other guys in his own weight class (Mungia)

Everyone screams about Hurd being this huge weight bully, yet seem to disregard hes been the IBF champ for the last two years (where he is mandated to show up on fight night below 164lbs)

Not more than 10 pounds next day morning, not fight night. He still has the whole day to keep rehydrating.

Imagine if Hurd loses.
We'll never see Charlo-Hurd, lol.

Charlo vs Hurd to see who gets to fight Tony Harrison.

I'm a fan of both, but Hurd is too big for Williams.

I talked with Hurd a couple months ago and for him to tell me how much weight he put on after the Lara fight would make anyone think how in the world does he get down to 154, but he is able to do it.

After this fight Hurd wanted to fight Jermell Charlo and then one more fight at 154 before moving up, but since Harrison threw a wrench in those plans, we'll see what happens after this fight.

[BLASTER1]

It's crazy that Hurd was using this J-Rock fight as a tune-up for Charlo.
I hope he doesn't get too complacent or Hurd will be the next to lose.
Hoping that Jarred knocks him out though and looks great doing it.

Hurd weighs 168 on fight night as reported in his fight with Lara. Do you really believe the UK boxer weighed 128 on fight night?

regardless of the estimations. It looked like a heavweight fighting a welterweight.

Hurd is trash

[Curt Henning]

I love how no one talks about Hurd getting completely outboxed and put up against the ropes by a club level fighter from the UK who probably weighed 40lbs less than Hurd.

WAAR HURRD MAN

how did that turn out for the club level fighter from the UK?

Hurd is trash

Anybody who beats Lara and is a unified champ isn't trash. Stop hating.

This is all bad for J Rock.
