Ayala may have been a piece of crap human being.
But he was a beast.

This is a fascinating fight which is not easy to call. But my guess is that Ayala had enough going for him to beat Hope. I say he breaks down and KO's Hope by the tenth or eleventh.

Ayala might get floored once and rocked a few times before its over, as Hope was a highly mobile, skilled tactical boxer who could pack power in his best shots.

Ayala at his best is too strong for Hope. KO around 7-10
