Good fight. Good step up. I’d assume Zayas wins, but we should get a very good idea about what his level will be based on how much trouble he has with Texeira.

I’ve been impressed with Zayas and happy to see the step-up in competition and willingness to fight 3+ times a year which IMO should be what all young fighters should be targeting at this stage of their career.

Vergil vs Zayas at 154

Virgil is a sick man. Zander should aim higher. At least until Ortiz shows up at 154. I wouldn't want to see any asterisks, or hear any starvation fairy tails

Xander Zayas is on a wicked roll as of late, Teixeira is a good step opponent who should go down by knockout as well.
Zayas should be fighting for a title, and winning it in late 2024, or early in the first quarter of 2025.

It's a typo, Xander is a undefeated fighter with a record of 18-0 (12 KO's), and counting!
