Here is the GHouston write-up for those asking. This is kinda early for him. So maybe he's got one of his update specials in store?

LMS. . .  I hit it earlier at -250.  About 1 minute later, it went to -260/+215. . .  Then about 5 minutes after, it went to -255 and I hit it again. . .  then it went back to -250 after about another 10.

Poor Tye Fields. The NABF #5??? I DNK they even had that. TIC, a little.

Dude sure throws some army shots. Some short straight hitting guy will Rock'em Sock'em robot his head, and his Manager won't be able to tap his neck back down before the Ref counts 10. Tye trys as hard as his Talent/Technique will allow. Arum should go on protecting him in my book.

Antillon's a beast.  If you recorded the fight, watch the last minute of the first round again.  Antillon's methodical and effective manner of finishing Bobby reminded me of a 130-pound version of Kelly Pavlik.

Yep, great calls last night; excellent stuff.

Funny thing is my grandfather who is still pretty sharp on the sport at 83 called me post fight and made the exact same statement, I kid you not.

I noticed a couple of times in the thread you referred to the 130 lb junior lightweight division being Antillon's home.  I don't think you will ever see him fight at 130, he's never gotten down to that limit and I don't think his body will allow at this point.  IMO, 135 is where he will be in the future

Great performance though.  The body shot is what did the heavy damage; the left hook upstairs caught my eye, but Pac took bigger shots than from Soto and lasted a while.  Antillon sure has come a long way since I watched him struggle to beat Hernandez on that defunct DLH HBO Latino series.  I what has helped his development the most is the world class sparring that he has gotten; Valero, Escobedo, and others.  He's still got a way to go before he could be considered world class, but he's come a long way.

You're totally right, FB, on Antillon's lightweight status.  For some reason, I'd been grouping him with the 130-pounders in my mind, possibly because of those Valero sparring videos. 

If Manny comes up to lightweight after the JMM bout, I wonder if he'll have his eye towards some revenge...Lots of potential bouts out there for Antillon in the division.  In about a year, a matchup with the Baby Bull would be a scorcher.

Only time will tell.

Yeah, I give you a lot of props on sticking to your guns with the big play on Antillon.  It was going to be a no play for me on both guys until I watched the sparring footage Max put up this week and read Dougie's take.  After hearing good things on Bobby coming into this one and seeing Urbano not looking great on video I had to take a small stab.  Very good for you though Urbano did what he had to when it mattered.

Nice work this week men. My only regret on BobPac - Antillon is that I didn't load up more than I did. That line was absurd.

I bought back each play in time except Ali, which lost.

Man, those were dreadful. That's the last time I use boxrec to make renegade plays lol. A 50$ lesson learned.

Congrats to the Antillon backers, the joke going around is BPac is now named SpongeBob, since he's great at absorbing everybody's punches.

I made small plays on both Pac and Marq split decision, +1000 and +1300 respectively. Should be a close fight, and I doubt any judge will want to submit a draw.
