Promoter Eddie Hearn Is Concerned About The Inexperienced 2016 Olympian Yafai (9-0, 7 kos) Going Up Against The Former Unified Minimum Champion World Champion (39-6-1, 27 Kos).

Yafai’s Soft Matchmaking Concerns

Despite His Olympic Experience, Yafai has been Matched Softly During Three-Year Career and has been Guided Into Capturing His WBC Interim 112-LB Belt WITHOUT Fighting Any Killers. Like His Brother, Kal Yafai, Galal has looked Uncomfortable When a Facing Opposition With Opposition Power.

He hasn’t been Matched Against Any Of The Big Punchers or Tough Fighters Yet. Saturday’s Fight Will Give A Glimpse of How Good Yafai Is. It Still Won’t Say Anything, Francisco Rodriguez Isn’t at the Best Flyweight; Hence That’s Why He was Chosen. If he was a killer, he’d Likely Have Been Passed Over Matchroom’s Eddie Hearn.

Rodriguez’s Tough Opponents And Past Losses

Although The Mexican Rodriguez, 32, has a Pro, His Defeats Have Ha Come Against Solid Fighters, Like Roman Gonzalez (X 2), Junto Nakatani, Kazuto Ioka Donnie Nietes, and Moses fuentes. Most of Those Fighters Would Likely Beat Galal Yafai With Any Problems.

“I Think this is a Very Tough Fight. The Reality Is, Whatever WHO WHEN WHEN WHEN WHEN RING, Whatever Galaal says, Sunny Wasn’t 100% Mentally Going At Fight,” Said Eddie Hearn to Mathroom Boxing About Galal Yafai’s Recent Victory Over Former World Champion Sunny Edwards.

What Do You Expect Sunny to Be Mentally? The Guy had been and stopped by Jesse ‘Bam’ Rodriguez Job in December 2023. Of course, Edwards, 32, isn’t going to be all the Foodt Galal Yafai Last November.

The Real Question is, Why Was Sunny Chosen As Galal’s Opponent In The First Place? If You Know Edwards has been knocked out Badly by ‘Bam’ Rodriguez, Why On Earth Wether to Chosen AS Yafai’s opponent? We Allready Know the Answer. To make Yafai artificially good look. You chose a down-and-out, recently beaten Fighter, and youuse that person as the opponent galle. This is matchmaking 101 on How to Create a Fake Fighter.

“He (Yafai) Still Took Took Him to Pieces, But I Guess His Wants His Flowers For Performance, And He Should Get It, The Mindset Of Rodriguez and The Mindset Edwards Is Very Different Going Into This Fight. I Know These Guys, “Said Hearn.

Eddie Is Right. Francis Rodriguez Isn’t Going To Enter The Ring Looking And Already Beaten Against Yafai. He’s Going To Tow Tooth and Nail For As It Lasts. The only concern is His Age. He’s 32 and Has had a Long 15-year Pro Career.

Although HE’s Age Age Age and Looks Physically Than Him, He Still Has a Lot Of His Odometer From Being Chocolate Like Chocalez, Donnie Nietes, Kazuto Ioka, and Moses Fountain.

Rodriguez’s Determined Fight Mindset

“I work with Mexican Fighters. When A Guy Comes Up To Me And Says, ‘Thank You Opportunity. I Won’t Let You Down On Saturday Night.’ This is Rodriguez. Those Is His Absolute Everything, And These Young Men. I Thought He Beat (in 2021 in Tokyo). I Thought It Very Close, “said Hearn

What Means Is Francisco Rodriguez Will Be Coming to Fight on Saturday. He understands The Significance of This Fight for His Career. If He Beats Yafai and Looks Like A Diamond In The Process, It’s Could Catch The Eye of Turkey Ala!

“He’s A former (Two-time) World Champion, and he’s (Rodriguez) Is Going To Give Yafai All He Can Handle. I Believe Yafai Will come Through,” Said Hearn.
