    Andy Cruz v Raymond Muratalla who you picking if it happens?

    After watching Cruz the other night i would favour him although Mishiro's style suited him. Do you guys think this fight will happen or will Muratalla duck him? I dont think he will duck him but we see. I pick Cruz on points.

    I haven’t seen Muratalla in action, but I’ve seen plenty of Cruz. The Cuban is high quality. I’d say he’s about an 8, on a scale of 1-10. About the only thing he’s missing — if it can be called “missing” — is a touch more power. Andy is a boxer-puncher with an engaging style. He can really benefit from some more power at his level. But at this stage of the game, Cruz isn’t about to develop more pop. I think he can be a champ, but he won’t be dominant.

      I see Andy Cruz a bit like Justis Huni (weird comparison) in the sense he has a lot of skills, he's quality but I just feel his lack of pop, willingness to trade and durability will be an issue. For that style you either need power or world class reflexes and a chin.
      Sometimes the better boxer doesn't win it simply comes down to who can take the others power better. We'll see that eventually with Cruz.

      It works to a certain level, he'll grab a belt or two, he'll probably take apart world class pure-boxer types but I think guys with durability, timing, power will undo all the great work he does. His style relies on giving too many chances away and he gets hit with some pretty silly stuff regularly.
      Even in his last fight against a seriously untalented guy he was getting caught with some daft stuff.
