Lee Selby vs Jonathan Victor Barros

[handsofstone]

Cant claim to know much about Barros, the name sounds familiar but I was checking through his record and he's been world champ recently so I thought I would remember him clearer but I don't

He beat Roman to win the world featherweight title about 6 years ago and he also retained then lost to Caballero who was a capable fighter,has points defeats to Gamboa and a world title fight against Salgado up at SFW and he got KO'd by Mikey Garcia so he's got a better CV than Selby on paper and he's only 32 so he's not ancient but is he maybe one of they guys who losses more at the top level than wins?

Selby hasn't been the most active champ and his defences haven't been stellar, Montiel was pretty poor and last time against Hunter he was put down for the 1st time although he got up to win fairly comfortable in the end, I think Lee is a fighter who gets the best out of himself when challenged and I don't know if Barros is the man to bring the best out of him, as I said I cant remember much about Barros but Argentine so I imagine he'll be tough,strong rugged and basic in his approach?

Selby will win a pretty forgettable fight on points no doubt,hopefully setting up a unification fight with Frampton in the process
