do you really think so? I guess you dont even know who he is.

This should be a close fight, Concepcion has great movement and great handspeed. But Luevano is the best counter puncher in the division.

I went with Concepcion in the poll, but if anyone can catch Concepcion it's Luevano.

This is good news... I've been following Abe's career a little bit. He's got the tools to be a winner.

Maybe a little wanting in power, and a nasty habit of losing focus during fights (forgetful of the great value of delivering punches in bunches, and in combinations). Stamina is a bit of an issue.

Concepcion works on this, he will drop Luevano. He comes in without enhancement to those previously stated, he will fall on the short end of the stick.

He does not have the luxury of size to outbox an excellent one in Luevano. He might even suffer a KO.

One thing is tho', the kid has a lot of heart. No quit in the guy even when bleeding profusely. Another real ring warrior, go Abe!

Luevano got a real good movement but he cant fight the whole day backing and throwing punches. His chin is still untested.

All Conception can hope is to land one big combo and it's all lights out on Luevano.


Conception wins TKO in 10th round.

Key to succes for Bernabe is "composed pressure".

If Bernabe can apply his style which is "pressure/come forward" but in a controlled manner I think he beats Steven all the way.

Thing is, I don't Bernabe is experienced enough to do so.
I've seen Bernabe shoot it out and he get's hit a lot.

Steven has vastly improved over the years but he showed a somewhat lackluster performance vs. Santiago. Then again Santiago and Bernabe don't have the same style.

In the end I'm taking Steven by comfortable margin.

[Violent Demise]

Luevano. Concepcion don't really impress me at all. At 5'4 he's shorter than Luevano but I don't see him as being stronger. Luevano will control him pretty easily. Luevano 11 rounds to 1.

you have a point, even with 30 fights bernabe is still only 20 years old. I also have doubts because his inexperience but we will see how he does in his first world title bout. I hope he does well.
