    It seems that Andrew Moloney is legally trying to force a title shot in Yafai. This may stop a potential fight with Gonzales

    So there it is. Truth is if there's one he'll excel with at 115 it's Yafai. Hard to erase the memory of Chocolatito being walked through like a shallow rain puddle but that's not what Yafai appears to be capable of. It's a winnable fight even though Gonzalez is slower older and getting hit more and maybe he'll get sliced to threads. Or Yafai runs out of ring space and sits down with him in close one too many times . But a perfect tee up for a 7 year off Estrada rematch I guess.

    Good fight to see how much Chocolatito has left. Yafai is a solid fighter. If chocolatito can’t win, then I think it’s time to hang them up. He is getting old especially for lower weight classes and has proven a lot.

    If he wins though, I really hope it sets up a rematch with Estrada. It would be a nice little comeback story if Estrada could get revenge.

    Err, Estrada gave him a very close fight eight years ago two weights below, and they've been going in opposite directions over the last few. Hardly a comeback story or "revenge", surely?
    I'd also like to see Gonzales win this and look good mind you.

    gonzalez wanting that comeback fighter of the year award
    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    I think gonzalez has been written off a bit too quick, although in the big Wang sor rungvisai rematch he just looked weird... He also probably should have one the first fight too... In his comeback fight v the uber entrepreneur he looked very rusty early on but worked himself back into pretty good form later in that fight... Quite inactive since then which might be bad, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him look very good.
