  • Usually when a big fight falls through, they find a mediocre replacement to be knocked out or reschedule. This time we get an equally exciting fight that has fan favourite non stop action written all over it. Hoping Chocolatito get’s the win but massive opportunity Martinez

  • How much I miss my 90s and 2ks boxing. Today it’s a joke I can’t even watch anymore… what were your favorites at that time,

  • Really like Martinez but I feel he is overmatched here. His defense is suspect at best and he will likely be picked apart. Moving up in weight I doubt his punches will will do much damage. If Chocolatito is 80% of his old self he will dominate.

  • I think Gonzalez wins. His technique is better and I can see him picking Martinez apart at times. But I’m not surprised at all if Martinez draws him into a war and gets the win. I don’t care who wins though and I’m expecting an excellent fight.
