Oscar Valdez vs Evgeny Gradovich on April 09

Finally the Mexican prospect Oscar Valdez (18-0 16 KOs)is stepping up in competition against former IBF featherweight champion, Evgeny Gradovich (21-1-1). The so-called 'Mexican Russian' Gradovich is almost four inches taller than the undefeated former Olympic medalist from Nogales, Mexico. Looking forward to this bout to see if he is indeed a future champ or just another hype job that looks great against bums. Gradovich lost his title last year on a technical decision after a head clash on the 8th round in his fifth title defense against Lee Selby.

 

"Gradovich lost his title last year on a technical decision after a head clash on the 8th round in his fifth title defense against Lee Selby."


​No. Selby beat the shit out of him.

 

I thought Valdez's last opponent (Avalos) was an ex champion. ( Maybe he was in a championship fight.)

 

avalos is a bum.

valdez has talent and should smash gradovich, but we will see if he has improved any. so far he's been pretty reckless and wild

 

And Valdez is going to beat the living shit out of both Gradovich AND Selby! ::

 

I don't see Valdez having any problems here.

I think he's the goods.

 

Chris Avalos has never been a world champion, but fought and was stopped by IBF Super bantamweight champion Carl Frampton in his sole title fight to date.

 

I didn't say he was a future Hall of Famer. I said I thought he had held a title at one point or maybe he had fought for one. I haven't been arsed to check on either since.

 

Thanks, Panchy. I didn't see this before the last reply.

 

Adames loses to texiera in a war. Now we got the fake jackal frampton taking it to DeMar derozan in a skirt on espn+

 

Neither of the advertised fights materialized. Frampton fought some kid who had never been 10 before. And Valdez is fighting some guy with 14 fights. Nice job Top Rank.

 

valdeds opponent was 11 pounds over the limit. hard to blame the promoter for his unprofessionalism. he gained 8 pounds since the last weighin. anyhow im told the kid replacing him will give valded a harder fight

adames losing to texiera was worth the 4.99 for this month

 

Never heard of these bums

 

Valdez's problem at 126 was punching power. Don't see how movi g to 130 is going to help that.

 

his problem is his terrible defense

 

Valdez is a total hunter

 

Down goes valded

 

Valdez has a glass jaw

 

Valdez is indeed hunting Lopez

 

This is an interesting match

 

Lopez forcing Valdez to be a plodding Hunter

 

Valdez really loading up. He's just trying to get the KO. He needs to make sure he wins.

 

Valdez does not have the explosive power of Rocky Juarez

 

Horrible stoppage. Horrible!

 

What a bailout

 

Early Stoppage.

Berchelt will destroy Valdez

 

Bradley thinks the stoppage was "too premature." .

 

i expected nothing less from russell mora

 

Hate When the Boxing Media Uses "Ring Deaths" to JUSTIFY Shitty Stoppages of Fights...
