Everybody should be pumped for this one!! If this were the days of HBO, this would likely be a PPV card. This is arguably DAZNs first full "fight card" from top to bottom that would qualify as a PPV card.
Garcia-Vargas is a very even matchup, which has fight of the year written all over it. Garcias performance against Spence was very underwhelming, and IS fighting what I believe is TWO classes above his best weight. Vargas is much bigger, and I DO believe he can match garcia in just about every area in skill, from speed to power. I'm leaning toward vargas by split decision, and i think we see a rematch between the two.
Yafai-Gonzalez is a terrific co feature. I'm not sure why yafai is the favorite, maybe because he is naturally bigger and undefeated. Gonzales should arguably have just that one knockout loss to rungsivai, and I thought he won their first fight. Gonzales is offensively superior to yafai, and I think it shows, especially in the 2nd half of the fight. Gonzales by close but clear decision, in a fight where he scores a late knockdown or two.
Martinez-Harris is another good matchup. I don't know much about Harris, but I do know Martinez is a buzzsaw and one of the most explosive and exciting champions in the sport. Martinez may be able to be outboxed, and Harris should certainly try to box, although Charlie Edward's failed miserably trying to do so. I think harris starts out boxing well, but martinez body punching, sheer strength and power get him a late stoppage.
Top 10 heavyweight Joseph parker returns in a tune up, and prospect Israel madrimov faces Charlie Navarro's in a WBA eliminator.
From top to bottom, this is the best fight card of the year. Enjoy the fights and god bless you all!!!
