Felix Parrilla vs Jose Velasquez

I like the look of young Parrilla. He can look a little bit clunky at times, but he keeps his shape beautifully. His punches are thrown correctly. He’s very rarely out of position. He’s tall for the weight, but he knows how to use it even at this stage of his career. With Velasquez, what you see is what you get. He’s 36. He’s from Chile and is renowned for being a tough guy. Even though he has 12 defeats on his record, he’s never been stopped, and of his 34 wins, 24 of them come by knockout, so he’s a dangerous guy to be stepping up against. We’re gonna go with the 26-year-old Parrilla to win by decision.
