There arent trally any weak champs at 140 so he is better off going to 147 and maybe finesse the IBF there

The beginning of the end for Figueroa...still one of the damndest fights ever
I would like to see this fight get made. Hitchins want the big pay days and notoriety he going to have to get in there with guys like Subriel.
All the 140 unifications are tough so dudes just need to get it over with lol ain't no where to hide
You want to be considered the best you gotta beat the best. Getting the belt and looking cute with it not gonna move the needle.

Espinoza beats his ass

P said the same yesterday lol
He has a lot of holes in his defense bro. If he's taking clean shots consistently, things could get very interesting
The midget he fought his last fight touched him up something nice. He had tons of heart but no power

Honestly, I'm kind of confused how Espinoza is this overwhelming favorite against Shu Shu
A come forward fighter with leaky defense is always susceptible to a counter puncher with some pop. And we've seen now multiple fights of Espinoza fighting shorter fighters hitting him with shots he does not see
Saying all that, Shu Shu does need to start using his jab way more. He used to use his jab alot but stopped his last couple of fights. That is a weapon needed for Espinoza, you can't go from round 1 to 12 being in a fire fight and think you can make it out alive. I just see Espinoza over extending himself getting hit with counters all night by Shu Shu. I think it's a 50/50 fight

I definitely agree
Counter punchers with pop a lot of times slow down heavy workrate guys. Espinoza's tall & lanky but he's a pressure fighter that gives fighters opening & chances to counter. To me barring anyone gets clipped early it's gonna come down to a few things. Who can take who's power better that night, who will impose their will & fight their fight, & who'll be better a little better defensively than their opponent that night
Someone's getting stopped
