Lol, Escandon lost his last fight and got a gift decision in one of the worst robberies I've seen against Tyson Cave before that. So 2 losses in a row gets a fighter a title shot? What a joke.

He won't need his whole arsenal. Bring his chin and about 80% of everything else and he should do just fine. Escandon hasn't been impressive as of late.

Already trying to sell this bum fight the same way Wilder tried selling Dahaupas I see...:hmm:
