Really looking forward to it. I reckon it'll go the distance - be close - with Johanneson's meatier work winning it for him.
Fewkes-Watson undercard looks good too.
People think that Burns will have to be the matador, just like Corrales needed to be against Castillo, but I think he'll stay in the pocket and try to use angles. He stood there with Arthur at times and thrown as much back. Ok he may not have as much of a punch but I don't think Burns will be running anywhere or fighting on the back foot.
Remember the good old days, we miss you Marco!
