Wow. Up in weight again... Hope he wins but I think he would be better off at super flyweight

Im actually getting excited for this fight,

Vic is one of my all time favourite fighters due to his aggressive style. It would be great if he could grab a title and defend/unify against dibb's conqueror (Evgeny Gradovich).

Looking at Waters record he has never faced anything near the quality of Vic D, so we will find how good the undefeated champ really is.

I contacted main event and they said they weren't showing it.

astounding tbh.

considering how many ordinary ones they show, its very disappointing.

Interesting fight.

Walters is significantly bigger, but he's fought no one of note and doesn't seem that skillful, which is important because Vic's problems tend to stem from him being less skilled than his opponents. I'm leaning a bit towards Walters due to his youth and size, but Vic looked good in his last fight despite losing and I won't be surprised if he wins.

Been a big fan of Vic but I hope he loses in a great fight. Nothing against him but when I was younger (70's/80's) there were a load of decent Jamaican boxers, some based in the UK, some in America & some at home.

Other than Glenn Johnson there's been nowt for a while. Would be nice to have someone to get the island excited about boxing again. All the hardest kids at my school were Jamaican. What happened???

That is disappointing and surprising. Some of the decision making in boxing and about boxing is truly bewildering.
