Why didn't he fight a rematch vs Lara or Trout, or even fight Vanes, Ishe Smith, or someone else for his stay busy?

Genuinely worse than Garcia vs Salka

Good luck to Welborn but i have to say this is the biggest mismatch i have seen in recent times. Welborn recently went up to 160 and won a couple of close encounters with Tommy Langford for the British Title but it was only 18 months ago when he lost a points decision to journeyman William Warburton. He was also well beaten and knocked out when he stepped up against Liam Smith and has even lost title fights for his own area title. He's not even the best Junior Middle in the West Midlands LOL!!!!

First off, he wanted a tune up to test his shoulder. The Trout and Lara fights were hard and competitive until the end. Why the hell would he take on those fights as his "tune up" fight?

As for this fight? Complete and utter mismatch. They better have at least a fight or two on this card that actually goes rounds and we avoid what we got with the Canelo/GGG PPV.

Hurd learned to keep his mouth shut. He is fighting some british wanker, not one of those Charlo's. He isn't that ambitious!!

Totally agree,the only other mismatch in recent times that i can think of that comes close to this actually involved another British domestic level fighter when George Jupp went over to Mexico and fought Berchelt for the interim WBO title!

As ridiculous as this fight is, i'll be heavily rooting for Welborn!
