On February 1st, 2025, Isaac Pitbull Cruz will finally return to the ring. He is looking to redeem himself after his last fight, where he lost to José Valenzuela in a match that fell short, exposing his weaknesses and lack of adaptability.
Pitbull Cruz has been very salty since then, making multiple excuses in every interview. He even asked for a rematch with El Rayo Valenzuela, but unfortunately, that didn't happen. Instead, we are going to see Isaac Cruz facing Angel ¨Tashiro¨Fierro.
Angel Fierro has a record of 23 wins and 2 losses and is coming off a victory against Eleazar Valenzuela by knockout in the 5th round.
He is a forward boxer who consistently pressures his opponents with his combination of punches. Regarding his durability, we have seen him absorb significant shots in his past fights and still perform well. He employs a high guard and prefers to pursue a knockout as his favored method for concluding his fights.
Isaac Cruz, as we all know, is an aggressive fighter who consistently moves forward with his high guard in a peek-a-boo style, blocking punches until he ultimately knocks out his opponents with his hook. This strategy has always worked for him until his last fight, where Jose Valenzuela employed a defensive boxing style with a Philly shell guard, patiently and intelligently maneuvering throughout the rounds.
So, what’s the prediction for this fight? Well, the betting odds are as follows: Isaac Cruz has odds of -667, while Angel Fierro is the underdog with odds of +500. These odds exist for a reason. It is more likely that Isaac Cruz needed a fight where he could easily win to gain some confidence and momentum. That’s why he chose Angel Fierro; he lacks effective footwork, his guard tends to open up every time he tries to throw a hook, and overall, he is a one-dimensional boxer, very similar to Cruz.
My final prediction for this match is that Pitbull Cruz will win by knockout—clean and simple.
