Xander Zayas’ Homecoming Puerto Rico: Celebrating a wbo Title Win Amidst Questions of Elite Competition

Xander Zayas is back in Puerto Rico, Celebrating Capturing The Vacant WBO Junior Saturday Night His Decision Victory Victory at Madison Garcia at Madison Square Garden Theater in New York City.

Zayas’ Next Fight Options

It’s Zayas’ 15 minutes of Fame Before He And His Promoters At Top Rank Whether To Take On The Talented Champions 154, OR Milk Wo Belt with a Soft Opponent, People Josh Kelly, to Make Money.

1. Sebastian Fund
2. Bakhram Murtev
3. Vergil Ortiz Jr.
4. Jaron Ennis
5. Yoenis Tellz
6. Josh kelly

Xander Is Not Going To Be The Next Miguel Cotto or Felix Trinidad for Puerto Rico. He Lacks The Talent to Be Like Those Fighters. He’s not like Hector Camacho either. His Style Is Like Shakur Stevenson’s, But Not Skilled, But With The Same Risk-Averse, hit-and-not-get-hit Approach.

The performance by Xander, 22, Wasn’t Sparkingly to Say It Would Have A Chance At Beating Fighters Like Sebastian Fund, Bakhram Murteriev, Vergil Ortiz Jr, Jaron ‘Boots’, or Yoenis Tellez. Top Rank Promoter Bob Arum has got to be a little bit of the aware of a Shot Zayas Would Have Have Of Any Of Them.

That could be why he was asking About Xander’s Next Fight, He Wasn’t Naming Anyone. He Merely Said He Would Defend The Wo Belt in Puerto Rico for His Next Fight Later this year.

Zayas Did Beating Good Job By Jorge Garcia A 12-round Unanimous Decision. He used Movement, A Ton of Holding, and A Strong Jab To Win By The Scores 116-112, 118-110, and 119-109.

Zayas’ Defensive Style

The Constant Clinching and Moving Worked Well on The Pressure Fighter, Garcia, But Wouldn’t Be Effective Against Any Of The Talented Fighters in the Division. They Would Walk Xander Down, Fight Through His Tie-Ups, And Battery Him to Pieces.

IF Turki Aleshikh Takes An Interest One of the His Events, It Would Be Worthhile to Fight One of the Champions 154. Turki Would Have To Be Open Another Open to Be Jerry-esque Type Fighter Into His Fold.

If Not, Xander Would Be Better Taking Off Easy Fights Like The Ones His His Unbeaten Record. Top Rank’s Formula has worked well, turning a finesse-level fighter No power in World Champion Wittle Fighting Any Of The Dangerous Guys in The Division.
