Cruz vs. Mishiro: IBF Eliminator

It is expected that the IBF will order Muratalla to defend himself against the winner of the Cruz vs. Mishiro within 9 to 12 months. This leaves a short time for Muratalla (23-0, 17 kos) to put in a couple of easy defenses before facing the talented Olympic gold medalist of 2020 Andy Cruz. Muratalla did not seemed so great to win the temporary title of IBF last month against Zaur Abdullav on May 10.

Raymond Matalla is criticized for being unidimensional, fighting in one team and not having the killer instinct in their fights. Predictably struggles, he often resembles a zombie during his attacks and seems to be lifeless during interviews. This spark is missing.

Cruz is a nightmare for any person in the 135 -pound division and was avoided as the pest for Top Rank’s fighter, Keyshawn Davis. He wanted nothing to do with Cruz after losing it to the fans four times.

Andy repeatedly called Keyshawn, trying to make him fight, but he would not. He had all the excuses in the book to avoid Cruz, and now he has another after choosing to go to 140.

Top rank Muratalla-Cruz problem

It is not ideal for the first range for his fighter, Muratalla, to face a high-level fighter like Andy Cruz who breathed his neck immediately after he was elevated to the new IBF champion after the removal of Vasily Lomachenko last week.

The upper rank would probably prefer this muzzle Get time in milk His IBF belt before facing a risky opponent who has little chance of winning. They chose the wrong belt to place Muratalla to take -and could be hooked with Cruz as a mandatory challenger if he is victorious on Saturday.
