PLACE YOUR BETS!

Quintana is next after beating Tera Patrick and Ray De Los Santos.

Guzman was able to switch it up to another level in fights 2 and 3 with De los Santos so I'm not convinced Reilly has much of a chance in this one. Reilly is one of those fighters who is good at what he does but hasn't got the tools to variate his style much.

That'll be his downfall.

Everytime Maxy goes against his own fighter in a big fight he wins.....

I'll go with Guzman. Patrick beat Reilly. And she wasn't in her prime when she did it. I think Guzman stops him late

Guzman and Reilly fought to another draw. Guzman has given Reilly another rematch to determine a winner.

Reilly has given his best in the previous two fights but still been unable to upset Guzman. He's my fighter but I can't pick him to win unless I write a new fight plan and I haven't done that since November last year!

Reilly wins a deserved decision in yet another close fight. He immediately signed for another bout with Guzman declaring, "He's a great great fighter and he never ducked out of giving me another shot so I had to give him the honour of a rematch in my first defense."

What the fuck...you guys have the championship frozen for like the past 5 weeks. There should be an interim title fight.

Yeah, that seems to be the new style of Maxys fighter. A draw or at least a close fight

Palomino and Simms are even worse than Guzman and Reilly for having close fights. What is it now? 4 draws in 4 fights?



BJH, Reilly had to grant Guzman a rematch because Guzman granted him 2 in a row after their draws. Who knows, if Guzman wins this week they might have to fight each other again!

If it takes 6 months straight to figure out who is the better fighter between the 2, then that is how long it will take....

Reilly loses a split decision but he was fuming afterwards claiming that he was robbed.

What do we do with the lightweight title since I am moving? Postpone Guzman's defense? Or strip him of the title and let Reilly and Quintana duke it out?
