Its going to be an uphill battle for Reiya Abe to beat Venado but you gotta respect the guy. He's not even a full time boxer but works a regular job as a commercial welder. To come this far & fight for the belt is an achievement.

Let’s gooooo Reiyaaaaa!!!!!💪🏼🔥🥊

Ford vs Kholmatov is such an underrated fight. Two young and undefeated talents matching up for a world-title. Good luck to both fighters!

[@josephdale69]

I agree

[@natsudai1218]

Abe is a full time salary man. Huge respect he made it to the world championship title match.

Ray Savage Ford by TKO

[@evandeer]

Zero chance that happens. Ford is another propped up amerobum who’s already gotten 2 gift decisions in his career. Otabek will carry that bum and stop him late.

[@gustavofontalba]

Tko with his 50% ko rate? Come on try to do a viable prediction

[@dannyle2298]

Best odd for everyone to choose is the fight doesn't go the distance. Payout = +115 which is free $$$. 11 out of 12 of Otabek fight ended by knockout 0.0. But Ford fans can pick up some payday if yall choose the fight doesn't go the distance :)

He is but wonder how exciting the fight will be with someone like ford. Doesn’t like to stand there. Hopefully we get a good fight. Ford moves a lot and can out point him while fight but if he gets caught sheesh he going to feel it

[@cookiebot3369]

@@noeltrevino8258it’s gonna be a tough fight to call. Ford has the speed advantage but if he stays on the ropes like he did against Vazquez, then it might be a short night for him.
