I'm surprise that no one has votted for Romero here to win despite he is the defending. It seems people are not convince that he is deserving to be a champion. Isaac Cruz here the pitbull is very hungry for a win, his Legit loss (recent) came from Tank Davis which is a superstar, and it was easy and easy win for Davis, so Cruz had proven he can go toe to toe againts a champion.

If we compare Rolly and Tank Davis, it's pretty obvious that Davis is more quality as a champion, so I understand now why everyone was rooting for Isaac Cruz to win the fight. And even in the betting odds are quite surprising, Cruz is the heavy favorite.

@freedomgo. However, we should also remember that Tank Davis also injured his left hand during the fight against Isaac Cruz. The fight was certainly more impressive for Tank than for Pitbull, I reckon.

In any case, I also agree that it is very head scratching on why Rolly Romero chose a tougher opponent and a lower purse. It might because Oscar dela Hoya was making it very difficult to negotiate.

I don't get why Rolly choose to fight  Pitball Cruz, this guy is the real definiton of his name, he doesn't know how to back down, he keeps attacking until his opponent gets tired and will be KO.  Pitball Cruz was maybe the only one that gives Tank Davis a little problem in the fight, although Davis won the fight but he wasn't too convincing as he could not hurt  Pitball Cruz with some solid shots.

Rolly better enjoy his current status as it will not last for long, have he chosen to keep the negotiation effective with Ryan Garcia, it could be 50/50 or he'll be a on a slight disadvantage, but his opponent now, he needs to be prepared for a big war, it's a brawl baby.

Rolly is in trouble again, Pitball Cruz is so hard to tame he will have to work double time to tame the Pitbull considering that his last fight against Barroso was not that good he almost lost this fight and Barosso is an aging fighter, Rolly Romero should upgrade his defense, Cruz is the kind of fighter that will throw everything but the kitchen sink.
Romero should have accepted the Garcia fight, he could have made a lot of money from that fight I'm not saying that Isaac Cruz is better than Ryan Garcia but Romero's style is very much suited for the Pitbull, Pitbull loves opponents that keep moving forward, and Romero will be in trouble if he is not careful on how he deal with Pitbull he is one merciless Pitbull.

Agreed. It might also have been very good for the fans if Ryan Garcia would fight Isaac Cruz. Pitbull likes to move forward and King Ry has a powerful counter left hook which is a very perfect weapon for the style of his opponent.

However, on Romero vs. Cruz, it appears those who voted certainly know that Pitbull will be a more favored fighter by the oddsmakers hehe. I also disagree with you. Isaac Cruz does not throw everything but the kitchen sink. He will throw everything and the kitchen sink hehehehee.

So far on the poll I created, Isaac Cruz got all the votes it is still zero for Romero, I think this is going to be the trend if we base it on the two fighter's last two fights Isaac Cruz had the best performance although he drew against Cabrera, Cabrera was undefeated and a boxer with very good potential, compared to Romero's last fight he was almost beaten by Barosso, he was a big disappointment, he will have to stick to his hit and run tactic as he did against Barosso because Isaac knows he has a glass chin and Romero has since changed his style after getting knocked out by Gervonta but when you have a glass chin you have a liability when you are fighting in the ring.

Anyone will be a perfect style for Ryan, both Romero and Cruz are aggressive and Ryan can counter all day with his left hook when they go inside on him. But as others have said, in-house fight, and so Ryan can move to fight Ramirez as well, same idea, all in-house fight for Oscar. And maybe the winner can then go fight the winner of this fight.

However, on Romero vs. Cruz, it appears those who voted certainly know that Pitbull will be a more favored fighter by the oddsmakers hehe. I also disagree with you. Isaac Cruz does not throw everything but the kitchen sink. He will throw everything and the kitchen sink hehehehee.

He just throw with bad intention, and so if he caught you, might be a knockout. But remember when Davis fought Isaac, he broke his right hand and he says that Isaac is very difficult to knockout because of his stature and movement.

A PPV main event against Ryan Garcia would have been much more significant for either fighter instead of being on washed up Thurman’s undercard. I don’t get the logic of turning down better opportunities. Al Haymon is determined to keep everything in-house and make the most money possible for himself. Remaining loyal to PBC can be financially rewarding if you have the appeal of Spence, Wilder, and Davis who have had a lot of marketing behind their careers — for lower profile fighters it is often counterproductive and leads to inactivity and stagnation.

I think that's one reason, all in house money for PBC and Al, easy fight to make Rolly Romero vs PitBull Cruz. But reports says that winner will get Ryan Garcia. But who knows how tough it will be for the negotiation to happen. If they can't make Romero vs Garcia in the first place, then how will they negotiate it again if by chance Romero win the match against Cruz.

So pretty lame undercard, and in the first place the main card itself is questionable, Thurman being out of the action for 23 months has suddenly become the mandatory or at lest have the first crack against the champion in Tsyzu.

@Hirose UK - I'm sorry but you seems haven't seen the fight on how Romero got his belt. I suggest you search for his fight against Barroso before you can say that he is one of the best boxers in his class. He might be the champion for now, but he is the weakest, in my opinion, and that belt is just gifted to him as he was in trouble in that fight and the stoppage on Barroso was premature.

It looks like this fight is aimed at Rolly Romero being able to defend the WBA belt he previously won, Pitbull Cruz himself is also fighting to win the title and if there is no title at stake then I sure an agreement in this fight will not be reached.
Previously, Rolly Romero also met Ismael Barosso and in this meeting it was quite an enjoyable fight, Rolly Romero managed to get what he should have, namely the championship belt.

In this fight, I still have prediction that Rolly Romero will be able to win, even though Pitbull Cruz is not fighter who can be easily beaten, but with the strong punches that Romero has, he can definitely make Cruz fall.
At least if it not knockout victory then an absolute victory by the referee decision, he is very great boxer and he has been educated as fighter since he was child.
Now Romero is proving his worth and he has become one of the best boxers in his class.

After the Ryan Garcia - Rolly Romero deal breakdown Rolly Romero just secured a bout against Pitbull Cruz as the co - main event of the Thurman - Tzsyu title
match It is not yet announced if Romero's title will be on the line but I'll update if there's a confirmation that this is a title fight, but I honestly think it should be as Cruz is a worthy contender, but Romero is contractually obligated to fight Barosso so the reason why this is not a title fight.
