Israil came here 163 pounds when he's fighting 154. He came here in shape, well-trained. He wasn't doing boxing over there, but he was doing wrestling, judo and conditioning training."

    I will watch the replay but one of the guys did say he was 20 lbs overweight in the interview...

      Agree, except that he is definitely going to be punchy from now on.

        Looks like he'll get some more fights on that platform. I was impressed with him when he fought Pearson. Didn't catch the Contender.

          Thats when I first saw him too. When he handed Pearson his first loss. The Contender gave him a following and some exposure that should net him some more fights. Hearn should put him on a card this year.

            I wouldn't mind seeing him against Rosado or something
