I’d be shocked if that fight didn’t end Berchelts career. It was obvious he didn’t cut weight right or just cut far too much weight. I was surprised he made it that long. He stands straight up with his chin in the air it’s amazing he made it this far and had only been KOed once. Hopefully he’s ok. Props to Valdez he’s a classy champion fought a great fight.

The weight cut did seem like an issue but he just ran into a superior boxer who countered beautifully tonight. Valdez literally just as as close to a perfect performance as a fighter can do when evenly matched or not the betting favourite. Valdez is an excellent fighter who takes his trade seriously and I wish that young man the bestI’d be shocked if that fight didn’t end Berchelts career.

I agree. I also connected it to scot quig taking something out of valdez but man what a performance.I and others have been hugely critical of reynoso, Oscar looked like he had regressed under him and was not taking well to the style he was trying to implement.
well, i have to finally give him his props, perfectly executed the new style to a TEE. i will rewatch this fight a thousand times now.
Agree one hundred percentWHAT A KO!

I always thought Valdez was a fun fighter, never thought he was a good fighter.
I stand corrected.Comment

In the blood sweat tears episode valdez said he struggled to make weight and couldn't sleep so i would of thought he had problemsI’d be shocked if that fight didn’t end Berchelts career.
