There’s been a lot of back-and-forth trash-talking between Pacheco and Nelson during the build-up to tonight’s fight. You can tell from Nelson’s side that he and his team are desperate to win. He’s not young at 36, and he may not get another opportunity if he loses to the 23-year-old Pacheco. Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn believes Pacheco is the heir apparent to take over the 168-lb division once Canelo Alvarez retires.
