Mike Perez vs Magomed Abdusalamov
Saw this was added to the Golovkin-Stevens card! We could use more undefeated heavyweight hopefuls going at it and these two are not getting any younger.
Can this be a quality scrap or will Perez be way too sharp and a notch above? Mago is not hard to miss but if he gets you stationary shame on you.
Re: Mike Perez vs Magomed Abdusalamov
Perez has been asleep at the wheel. I'm pulling for him and am confident he will get the ud but who knows how motivated he is. And I agree its nice to see two undefeated up and comers square off.
Re: Mike Perez vs Magomed Abdusalamov
Looking forward to this match up, its definately gonna help the winners career. I think Perez could win it though, although I can't see Mago getting knocked out.

I got the funny feeling they were co featuring Tarver with him to feed him to Diaz at a later date, but I much prefer your idea!

Saw Perez one time, never saw the other guy. So, whatever. :p
Re: Mike Perez vs Magomed Abdusalamov
It's an interesting heavyweight matchup. Both are undefeated but neither has been in with a top 25 opponent.
I wouldn't be surprised if either wins. I'm leaning toward Perez by decision or late TKO.
Re: Mike Perez vs Magomed Abdusalamov
Should be a UD win for Perez. Hopefully he can get his career back on track.
Re: Mike Perez vs Magomed Abdusalamov
Every person ive seen talk about this fight has picked Perez, yet the bookies have Magomed the favourite, what gives? Ive had some of the 13/10 on Perez myself. Seems strange

Bookies are blinded by the 100% ko ratio. They dont really consider the quantity/quality equation in a fight such as this. Half of them probably think Perez is Irish.

He has Irish citizenship ;D
Re: Mike Perez vs Magomed Abdusalamov
If Perez has trained then he's a talented, explosive fighter. But has he trained?
Re: Mike Perez vs Magomed Abdusalamov
Interesting fight, hard to pick a winner though. I think Perez can take the decision but can he take Magomed's power?
I'll side with Perez by UD for now just because I think Magomed is one dimensional, stiff, and easy to hit. He's not a bad fighter, but he has some flaws that Perez should be able to take advantage of

He's been a real let down for me so far. A lazy chronic underachiever and I don't use that term as a rule. The sad irony for me as a fan is that he could have easily been in the top 5 by now and he's not even in the top 15. He's got about as much raw ambition as a communist factory worker. I'm taking him to win the ud just to be safe but he should blitz Magomed out and try to make a statement. He's fighting the Russian Wilder. And he's supposed to be the pro Felix Savon. Time to show us.
