Just looking at this pic...my prediction is shifting a bit. I'm wondering why Lopez seemed to have been trying to make the 154 limit, rather than coming in at around 150. We all know that cuts and muscles dont win fights, but water weight and fat doesn't help either. If Lopez stays in Canelo's chest and keep him unbalanced and uncomfortable, then I'm sure he can pull out the decision. If he gets too Mexican for his own good, then we'll see the obvious prediction of Canelo winning. |

theres also stretch marks on his right shoulder, there usually gained by either losing weight too quickly, or gaining it too quickly

Good opening rd in the Santa Cruz-Morel bout, I gave it to Cruz based on his activity and he landed the cleaner shots. It was close though

Santa Cruz opened up nicely in the 2nd, the right hand seemed to land at will for him

If this keeps up Morel won't last too much longer. I don't know why he's not giving Santa Cruz more movement, it would definitely help him. The right hand is proving to be deadly, the punch output is almost 3-1

Morel's corner has stopped the fight, Santa Cruz by TKO end of Rd 5

The right hand is proving to be deadly, the punch output is almost 3-1 Definitely. Morel didn't give himself the best chance. Santa Cruz would probably still have won, but at least Morel would've given himself a better chance. |

He could've moved his head waaay more then he did or at least took some steps to the side to mount his own offense |

I like and very much appreciate Showtime doing this segment on Pal Williams, he is such a warrior and I'm glad to see that he isn't letting the accident keep him down
