So far we have seen a lot that the average boxer from the Philippines is always troublesome to his opponent because they are equipped with stamina and good hitting resistance.
I guess Russell will know this and he won't be able to relax now.
although his ability is quite good and he is one of the boxers who is quite complex and his abilities are evenly distributed in speed, strength and IQ in the ring he is also good but the problem of resting too long still still doubts the gamblers.
I think he should now be where he should practice and start honing his skills at this point
Russell is regulary training himself even though he didn't fight with anyone, I think he just make himself is ready whenever the fight declared... so he won't underestimating Magsayo. Yep he's take a break for 2 years now, previously he only one per year, he just want to fight if there's a challenger.

The best PH boxer right now is Donaire, but sadly he's lose from Inoue. There're no PH boxer which is good like Pacquiao, probably we'll see in the next decade(s).
I'm not following his daily life at the moment but even so now he will definitely train his body extra this time because this is really important for him. But maybe as you say he trains his body every time he is announced for a match.
They are professionals and they are certainly doing their job, before this fight will happen, it's expected that both fighters are fit to fight as this is a big fight for them, one is defending his belt while the challenger will try to steal it, and that is Magsayo.

For Donaire himself, I think this is an opportunity to make him rise after he lost to Inoue some time ago.
PH boxer probably until now will not be able to beat Pacquiao in terms of popularity and achievements
If he is given a chance to fight Inoue, then for sure he will  train harder and will try his best to beat the most popular boxer in their division, but if he lost, then he can enjoy retirement as there's nothing to prove anymore.

Filipinos are undeniably strong and tough when it comes to boxing matches so their opponents automatically know how to prepare hard for them. Magsayo just like other Filipino boxers have strong stamina due to their determination to make the country proud just like what Manny Pacquiao did. I'm sure that Gary Russell is doing his best to have the best training to beat Magsayo.

Inoue vs Donaire is a good match if it will happen I think Donaire must focus on training so that he has a chance to win against the king of their division. Inoue must be careful also cause we all know that Donaire is a counter puncher.
Back to the topic about magsayo and Russell yes This is the big fight of Magsayo's career and they must be trained harder. In this fight I will bet magsayo too.

I remember that there is only one filipino Boxer that i come to follow since His non pro time , and that is Manny Pacquiao , i even watch His fights from his first win and i also remember How i marked Him to be one of the most promising boxer and yeah it becomes reality.
now watching Magsayo's former fights? yes i know that it is This boxer that will make His name also in the professional world, and to follow Nonito Donaire and Casimero in the top.

I think each and every Filipino boxers have their own strength and ability and they are all performing their best every time they are inside the ring, well not just Filipino fighters because probably every boxing fighter performs their best inside the ring. Manny Pacquiao is a very known boxer of all time because of his great performance during his career and some boxing fans cannot be avoided speculating who will be the next fighter that will be known like Pacquiao. As I assess Magsayo, I think he is also a great fighter like Donaire, Casimero, and Gaballo. And this upcoming fight between Magsayo vs. Russell I will going to bet in favor of Magsayo.

Donaire is still the best boxer now after he defended his title against Gaballo in a spectacular way but Magsayo's time to shine will be now if he beats Gary Russell, Gary Russell is a dangerous fighter only Loma beat him but with Magsayo's one-punch power he can overcome Russell's rapid punches, this is going to be a very exciting fight to watch at the start of the year.

Magsayo has beaten a lot of good boxers, but winning against Russell will be his biggest accomplished in his young career and could push him into the contention to fight for more belts next year. If Magsayo will have his timing perfect to hit Russell, that one punch power will be a big factor and Russell might think twice to attack and used his volume punching. So it will be a great battle and for sure not only Filipinos are exciting to see this match.

A Bitcoiner chooses. A slave obeys.
I'm really expecting Mark Magsayo will pull this one. PH boxers are now taking spotlights on the world of boxing. It's good to see them as our own Manny Pacquiao is now retired. I hope for more big fights involving a PH boxer will happened next year.

Magsayo is also a rising star the same as Gaballo that's why I like them to always have the spotlight.
I have to agree on this since there’s a good hype when it comes to Filipino boxers

I would have to agree with Magsayo being the favorite here. I am quite the fan of his, especially after finding out he comes from the Phillipines. I have yet to be disappointed by a Phillipine boxer. They are quite professional in the ring. Gaballo might not be an easy opponent but I think there is no doubt that Magsayo is going to win this fight without much trouble. Its a clear win.

And take note that Donaire is ageing mate, so PH boxers needs to step up their game so that they will have a continues stream of world boxing champions. I don't see anyone coming up like Pacquiao though, not even in the next decade.

Anyhow, Magsayo could be one of the next breed of PH boxers to make a name for himself, so he needs a good win against one of the best in the division. And he is an American, so defeating him will make more recognizable I would say.

Against Gary Russell, Magsayo is the underdog, no doubt about that but I don't think that it would be too heavy as bookies have seen what are the capabilities of the latter, he could knockout Russell with just one punch if there is an opportunity.

Will Russell underestimate his Filipino opponent? I don't think so, judging from his statement that Mark comes from the stable of the legendary Manny Pacquiao and the latter must have something in him that convinces Manny to take MMM under his watch.

So far, 7 people have voted with 5 votes in favor of Magsayo.

I have to agree on this since there’s a good hype when it comes to Filipino boxers and of course, they really have the talent and Magsayo already prove his worth so this will be an exciting match. Gaballo is not an easy opponent to deal with, so better if Magsayo will focus more on his core strength and he might have the chance to win on this.
Gaballo have to defend his belt on this and Magsayo is the underdog here but of course its real potential is there and he really focus on making himself more better, there’s a chance for Magsayo to get a win against with Gaballo though it might not be easy but its possible. Magsayo did a great job on his last match, I hope he can do that against Gaballo as well, and early Knockout is much more exciting to see.

Yes, this is going to be a hard fought fight for Magsayo and it will take him a lot to win and upset Gary Russell because admit it, Russell has all the tools here. But then again, we can't discount the fact that Magsayo has power in both hands and it might make the difference here. If he has a perfect timing, then perhaps he will caught Russell when coming in and score a knock out win.

Looks like this will be the hardest fight for Mark Magsayo and he really needs to give every ounce of his strength in this one. Gary Russell has the best defensive strategy on their weight division, it's really a low percentage for him if he can land a good shot here. He needs to work on his speed because he already has the power. when fighting a strong opponent, reflexes and good defensive strategy when got caught with a hard-punching opponent is the best thing to have as a boxer. Nevertheless, I'm going to cheer for Magsayo to win this one since this will be his road to get to the top list in their weight division.

Magsayo knows this fight is very important to his career once he signs for this fight. So yes, I believed that he will give every one of his energy in the training and the actual fight itself. They really need to strategize and be perfect in executing it. Yes, definitely we will be behind Mark's back 100% in this fight and going to cheer for him and hope that he will win.

Cheering on a boxer that you put your bet with is good. Well, I also like Magsayo especially if he gets good odds here as certainly, he will be the underdog. He has the power to KO Gary Russell so I would bet on him even though I'm not yet impressed with his boxing skills. I hope he will surprise us and he will show to us he has improve his movement and the accury of the punches he will throw.

This is quite interesting because if I'm not mistaken it's been a long time since playing Russell in the international arena and if I'm not mistaken it's been at least one or two years he hasn't played again.
According to https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/479775, his last fight was February 8. 2021, and won via UD, that's over a year already, almost 2 years until his next fight which is scheduled in January next year.
That's a good advantage for Magsayo as he is the more active boxer here, he recently won by KO against Julio Ceja who is a tough opponent. It was a good test for Magsayo, he struggle early in the fight but ended the game with an impressive power punch, if he can continue that momentum in this fight, well, there's a huge chance that he will become the champion.

we can monitor the odds here https://www.proboxingodds.com/, but it seems like the betting odds for this fight are not yet listed.
Without a doubt it could prove to be a massive advantage in Magsayo’s favor, there was a time in which boxers were more active and some of them even got to fight 100 or even more fights, those days are over but even then a long period of inactivity can be more than enough to reduce your skills in a significant manner, after all even if Russell trains himself it is not the same as getting in the ring, so Magsayo could not really ask for a better opportunity than this to become a champion.

If Gary Rusell will underestimate his opponent and will not take the proper training, then probably we might see a new champion in this division. Magsayo has always been so hungry and he was given a chance to be in the MP promotion where it gives him more opportunity to fight abroad, and this is his biggest opportunity, so I think he will give everything here in the training and make sure he'll get the belt.

I think Magsayo has proven himself already as compare to Gaballo who we just heard in 2021.
But yes, PH boxers are now in the limelight, specially with Donaire still fighting and hopefully Casimero can come back in the picture. And Magsayo and Gaballo and the rest of PH boxers will continue to bring glory and carry the torch. And hopefully Mark can overcome a tough fight ahead of him.

Once he wins this one, the name will be hype. We all know that the entire world knows how great PH boxers were.

Magsayo will add his name from the prime boxer that brings glory to our country. Not an easy fight for him, but overcoming his opponent will

Give him more credits. Aside from the title, there are more challengers that will seek for his belt, more fights also means more money to bank.

Looking forward to see him win this one. Wink
