175 was getting good then this boring dude had to ruin it

Used to really like Zurdo, but Arum has protected him like crazy in a middling 168 division, how is he going to hide him from all the killers at 175? Think Zurdo is in trouble when he gets in with some of these big punchers and his size and reach advantage will be less significant at this weight. Start him off with someone like Lenin Castillo, Felix Valera or that Mexican that finished Top Dog Williams and let's see how he looks

He needs to stay at 168 and wait for Canelo and Golovkin. I like Zurdo but I'm pretty sure he gets wrecked up at 175.

Kovalev

How about you pinheads not convicting Kovalev in the media. Let him have his day in court. Ever hear the phrase innocent until proven guilty?

Just when does this clown intend to fight someone his own size?

[Squ□redCircle34]

He’s gonna get thrashed against the likes of Bivol, Alvarez, Gvozdyk and Beterbiev and possibly even a past prime Kovalev!

Plant would box circles around him while talking to the commentary team!

[Raimondo]

LOL, he just 'eyes'

[R_Walken]

I like Zurdo but he Should stay at 168 , I mean he hasn’t even fought anyone of Substance his entire title reign ( Hart doesn’t count because he hasn’t
Fought anyone either ) and 175 right now seems like no joke

Probably not the wisest decision but ESPn has a couple of the top dogs at 175 so there shouldn’t be a problem having him fight a legitimate name not some guy they found in the jungle of Congo like one
Of his previous opponets

Tough choice for Zurdo


Get exposed when Benevidez returns, or move up to 175 and get exposed by Bivol.
