That'd be an interesting match-up.

You weren't "all bad." You have some decent posts. At first I thought you were 100% troll. You are an instigator though, that's for sure! :OhYes:

Very true. Only reason Jennings got past Mike Perez was because Perez's horrible shape and stamina. Could be the same here if Rivas' stamina is truly bad.
Rivas has a sneaky left hook that he throws behind his looping overhand right. It's a quick combo that is his primary KO punch. He has more than a punchers' chance but certainly doesn't have the same skill set as Jennings. I pick Rivas, but barely.

Watch Rivas' last fight vs Maldonado... You'll probbaly pick Jennings after that.

IMO the fight would have to be in Qc for Rivas to be favored by Decision. Otherwise i give a puncher's chance to Rivas in the first tier, first half at best and then he is done.

I've seen all of RIvas fights... I appreciate his skills... but they are based on early pop and great hand skills... If the fighter survives early, he often makes it to the end when he is reasonably good. The Abell KO imo led people to expect too much here... If you got the distance with Hubeaux or Maldonado, Jennings in shape should be too much imo for a fighter like Rivas.

I will be rooting for Rivas btw and hope he gets this one.

Wouldn't that indicate it is available via another means?

I actually just got it for frampton/Warrington and the UFC. Got fights on there and dazn tonight. Strangely this is the best time ever to be a boxing fan in America as the sports popularity dwindles.

ESPN+ probably works only in the USA. at least it doesn't work in Spain and Poland so i assume that it doesn't works in other countries as well. Unfortunately this event is not shown on Polish or Spanish tv so i need a stream and that's the only possibility for me.
