    Only 6 days away from this one. Should be all action.

    @Double L you nervous? The biggest fight of your boy's career.

    Fuck it, I'll actually go with go with Navarette. By decision in a bruising fight.

    Not nervous. Never been that impressed with valdez. He impressed against Berchelt but that's about it. I agree with your pick.

    It’s going to be a slobberknocker….O see a lot of Margarito in Nabarette, he must have dynamite in his fist…cause he’s sloppy asf.

    but I’m going with Valdez by decision boxing skills/technique will see him thru…I’m thinking they will go at it 2-3 more times before it’s over.

    Hard one. I’m gonna say Valdez via close, controversial decision.

    I didn't even know about this fight. Valdez is my favorite active fighter. Navarette, I also like a lot. It's a tough decision but I am going to go with Valdez by a split decision.

    Good fight on paper. Hopefully it translates to some eye catching 2 way action in the ring which hasn't been the case recently

    Should be a nice slugfest but I got Navarrete pulling it out.

    I hope Valdez has been studying up on the art of subtle science.

    If Valdez has the same focus and boxed the way he did against Miguel Berchelt he actually has a good chance to pulling it off against Navarette. Navarrete doesn’t have that great of a defense and he’ll be open to be hit by Valdez’s left hook.

    I think so as well. The reason I don't pick Valdez is because I believe sometimes guys fight at a certain level one time and never recapture that form again. I don't know if Valdez will ever again duplicate his Berchelt form.

    I know what you mean. I didn’t think Valdez looked all that impressive in his last fight, but then again he also arguably lost to Conceicao one fight after the Berchelt win. Navarrete’s come forward style is something that will give Valdez more opportunities to shine, just a matter if he can regain that same intensity.

    I'm dropping $200 on Navarette. I got a shock when I looked at the odds. I was expecting Navarette in the -150 range. I know he got caught by Wilson but Wilson has one good punch which is his left hook. If he doesn't get caught with a left hook, I think Navarette by decision is the most likely outcome.

    Wow. Valdez is favored - surprising. Navarette has a 6 inch reach advantage.

    REED's Got Valdez by Close, yet CLEAR UD or a Very Late Stoppage (10th Round or Later)...

    Valdez's Superior ATHLETICISM, TECHNIQUE and PEDIGREE Will Be the Difference...Navarette's WIDE Ass Open and a BIG Ass Target for an Accurate Counterpuncher Like Valdez...

    Emiliano Vargas has a lot of offensive talent. if he solidifies his defense he should be able to win a title at the very least.
