  • Whose Zepeda??
    Another handpicked mandatory that Taylor will smash to bits.

    • Zepeda’s better than that. He fought Ramirez in his home town and lost on a majority decision and he has a clear win on Pedraza. I’d still lean towards Taylor, but Zepeda’s a real guy, he’s battle tested and punches hard. Wouldn’t at all be surprised if he took it, especially after Taylor’s last fight.

  • Glad to see Zepeda getting another crack at the title, it wasn’t an easy task but he has been a beast lately. Should be a barn burner and can upset Taylor.
