Comments Thread For: Julian Williams Remains Patient Ahead Of Hurd Title Fight

[PBR Streetgang]

Very tough for me because it's my two favorite 154lbers facing off against each other. Both of them are confident yet come across humble and both entertain the fans with good fights. I see this fight going one of two ways, Hurd by mid-rounds stoppage or J-Rock somehow weathers the storm Swift brings and wins a close but clear decision. I'm hoping to get tickets to this one.

bread and jrock going to have the plan to win this one. lets not forget he was lighting charlo up in their fight. will be a ******* of a fight.

This is going to be a good fight for FOX. Hurd is always in entertaining fights and J-Rock will come to fight. Plus I like the start of the undercard with Korobov returning and Barrios

J-Rock dont have enough power to beat any of the top guys in the division

I kinda sadly agree with this.

There seems to have been a "power surge" in the division over the past few years, and I don't know if he can compete

I was probably the most vocal about Charlo and Harrison being a super underrated competitive fight.

I agree with you here as well that JRock is live. Not sure I'm picking him just yet, but he's a sharpshooter who has good enough pop to gain Hurd's respect. What it will come down to is how strong JRock is mentally in the later rounds and if he could clinch on the inside and not let Hurd get his shots off.

The talk is Charlo vs Hurd unification bout later this year, but really we could be seeing JRock vs Harrison and that's perfectly fine.

The division is fire, and has been for a minute! My worry is, how many head shots can Hurd continue to take before we see some effects? A lot of people need to watch Harrison vs. Hurd again, Lara vs. Hurd again! J-Rock will be no pushover! Great Fight! SALUTE to Joey Spencer! I see you Youngin'! Let's Go!

typical hurd fight, loses most of the early rounds comes back to wear on williams and probably stop him

How much power do you need to beat top opponents?

Williams has good power, enough to earn respect.

But he can box his ass off and he needs to utilize that.

JRock seems like good people.
This just seems like a big ask as prepared as i know he is going to be.
Hurd and that SIZE is really a nightmare for anyone.
Its going to take a younger type version of Lara to manage a decision over Hurd.
Not sure JRock has that level of disciplined sleekness in the face of intense pressure over 12 rounds.
I just hope he proves me wrong.

I think you beat Hurd by going to the body early on. He's too big for the weight and I think a body attack could make him susceptible to a late round KO.
