Interesting matchup, who do you think will win?

Korobov should use better skills to make this an easy nights work. Korobov beat Kovalev 2 out of 3 times as an amateur and has said should he win this wants GGG next. I saw him on an Andy Lee card years ago and thought he was something special but hasnt progressed as I would have liked.

Not familiar with Uzcategui. So I can't comment on who'll win.

The bookies have Korobov a pretty big favorite - Matt Korobov v Jose Uzcategui Winner Betting Odds | Boxing Betting | Oddschecker

This is Korobov's time to shine. Can't remember a guy who has stayed a "prospect" as long as him.

Small bet on Jose who I've liked, albeit against limited opponents.

Promising scrap. Korobov did the opposite of what many young guns do today and just went into obscurity. Could just be a wise maturing process, or something else. Def the more polished. Both coming off decent wins and even though David Lopez was long in the tooth, no one has beat him up and flattened him like that in over a decade. I think Uzcategui has a shot here. Dude is raw and somewhat awkward but hits like a mule. Should shape up to be a shoot out for as long as it lasts.

Korobov should win I think easily if he can stay active and settle on a trainer I think he can be a major player

[ruthless rocco]

He sucks. Did you see that performance? Terrible, humiliating, pathetic!!!
