Good fight. Good to see bam back

Bam is my fighter of the year! Watching the way he went up 2 weight divisions and dismantled two of the best, and made it look easy. I expected Bivol to win both his fights, especially his second, where as Bam took on Sor Rungvisai in his second and broke him down, beat the fight out of him. It was pure poetry!
Bam’s the man!

Bams work in there is just beautiful to watch. Not taking any credit from Israel but he probably shouldn't have taken that fight as the motivation didn't look to be there and it showed. With the much needed rest,he should bounce back here with another impressive performance.

DAZN/GBP shouldve had this fight as the co-main to Vergil vs Stan but i suspect DAZN/Hearn is just looking to fill dates.

Bam was very active last year. After a 7 month break, I expect him to come out hungry and ferocious.

Hope this and the Vergil fight are ppv. I want to see both.

To come up from junior flyweight and defeat Cuadras on a weeks notice, then come and KO his now rescheduled opponent in Sor and then overextending himself by decisioning the oversized and very dangerous Isreal Gonzalez. Find another fighter that did better than that, if Bam doesn’t get fighter of the year.

This fight is a set up. His opponent is a dud. Not even a boxrec picture.

[indelible]

Gonzalez's last 3 opponents all had consecutive losses and this fight being held in San Antonio tells you all you need to know of this being a showcase for Bam.

[Feroz]

This tune up will help Jesse Rodriguez adjust to 112 and obtain the WBO title to be able to set up bigger fights. He kind of earned a stay busy fight after what he has done last year, which is moving up two weight divisions and dominating 2 out of 3 top contenders.
