Not the greatest fight to have but atleast we get to see Walters fight before 2016 so can't complain about that, it will be interesting to see If Walters actually makes weight for this fight this time because I don't want to see him move up quite yet there is a lot of unfinished business at his weight class that LSC decided to skip so only obvious we wouldn't want Walters to do the same, lot of big clashes to be made.

Looks like walters is gonna move up to Super Featherweight.

130lbs, no way does Walters make 126

This is actually a tough opponent for Walters. Sosa has racked up 13 straight wins, all by KO and is the only man ever to knock out Jerry Belmontes, two fights back.

Walters has a great height and reach advantage in this fight. If he's smart, he should win with few issues.

Like I said before and got hooted down. He lost his championship on the scales. Why would he do that and then return at 126 for less money? He couldn't make it any more, no disgrace.

Walters

I actually think the Marriaga fight was a fight of the year candidate already. The dude was far from a slouch and Walter ate some heavy leather that night. It was highly technical, fast paced, and action packed. Just wish he got the ko.
