""emerging junior lightweight prospect Karlos Balderas"". Emerging? The dude just got submerged! They need to showcase the guy who smashed him instead!

Barboza and Moran seriously could they have not done better? Barboza last fought Saucedo and goes to fight Moran who got KO’d by Devin Haney. This is going backwards for Barboza. Age 29 with 25 fights and still no world title. What’s this guys M.O.?

Moran's solid would be a good opponent for someone like Josue Vargas but you right for Barboza it's a bit of a step back . I'd rate Moran C+/B- , Saucedo B-/B

Agreed. Moran is in between of that level of class. Barboza and Pedraza would have been a nice scrap.

Giron is more legit than Balderas who doesn’t fight well when being pressured in the inside which is what Giron did. I don’t expect anything good from Balderas regardless if he changed trainers. Im sure there’s a good reason why no other network signed him. Maybe golden boy would have but the guy doesn’t like oscar as he said so himself.

I think they're ticking him over. After Catteral has his shot belts may become vacant and Barboza probably fights for that vacant WBO title.

I'm a Josh Taylor fan. And as much talk as there is about him fighting Bud or Teo, I'd really also like to see him fight ABjr also.But he needs a bigger name to make that a more attractive proposition and a fight between Barboza and Pedraza would definitely tick some boxes.

Fun little card, 3 fights that should have good action. Think this will be the end of Greer though, he's in with the better Moloney, think he gets beaten down. Barboza/Moran will be fun action, but Barboza is still kinda waiting for that fight to break through, hopefully it comes soon. Main event is good and interesting

That’s a possibility considering Teofimo is expected to move to 140 after Kambosos. Should Taylor vacate after Catteral the runner ups to fight for those belts are likely to be Teofimo and Barboza
