Since we're handing out participation awards and all.. Pedraza deserves some credit for making Lomachenko look average. The supposed "best fighter in the world" once again failed to live up to expectations against subar competition.

I enjoyed the Thurman vs Lopez fight.
Was always on the edge of my seat waiting for Lopez's moment.
It made my day.
Told you guys.
You don't have to wait for best fighting the best to enjoy boxing..
Next stop is Davis vs Mares.
I've written off Mares in this fight,
but I'm changing my prediction.
Mares will surprise everybody.

if you have Danny Garcia and Porter as 2 of the leaders in the division,
and have close fights with the top guy,
then it's pretty much a weak division.
Spence and Crawford have yet to be tested.Last edited by rickJen; 01-27-2019, 09:07 AM.
