In the latest installment of Hey Harold! the longtime HBO commentator, Harold Lederman, gives his thoughts on tomorrow night’s main event between Miguel Berchelt and Takashi Miura. Here’s what he had to say...
“Takashi Miura and Miguel Berchelt, I mean this should be an absolutely great fight. Let’s talk about Miguel Berchelt for a moment: the guy is an amazing puncher. We saw him one time on HBO when he beat Francisco Vargas and he stopped him, and Francisco Vargas was a heck of a fighter.
“Takashi Miura once fought for the WBA 130-pound championship. He won the WBC 130-pound championship, he defended it four times, and then he lost it to Francisco Vargas in a fabulous fight that was Fight of the Year for the year 2015.
“Now we got Miura going in with Berchelt who knocks out everybody, so there’s no question that we’re gonna have a great fight. This fight is not gonna go the distance — really one of the best fights we’ve ever had, there’s no doubt about it.”
The Berchelt-Miura card begins tomorrow night, live on HBO, starting at 9:50pm ET.
