  • As do I. I’m not sure which way this will go. As long as they come out swinging should be good. Also I’m curious to see Dajuan calloway cuz I don’t think I’ve ever seen a near 400lber in the ring outside of wwe. Or was that another typo off by 100lb

  • Never a good sign, in my opinion, when someone has a hard time making weight after recently moving up (and Navarrete didn’t look in great shape in his first fight at 130 either). I think it’s a great fight and could go either way, but I think Valdez, with his better technique, takes it late; but we’ll see.

  • This has potential fight of the year written all over it!! Fighters trading knock downs with a brutal ending!!

    • Borimex, I concur. I say navarette takes it by knockout and as I said before I’m not calling out what round. A knockout is a knockout. I see leather being traded once the bell rings. I think navarette will outlast Valdez and get the knockout. I think the knockout will be late not early. May the best man win.

  • Really not sure who to pick here, but I expect a great fight and a few fireworks for sure!

  • Terrific match up! Valdez close to form he showed for the Berchelt fight takes it by late TKO. He looks to be in better shape at this weight and technique is much better.
