This is the second come back fight for Angel Acosta since losing his world title controversially to Elwin Soto. Gilberto Mendoza is a decent journeyman who doesn’t get stopped very often but also rarely causes upsets at this stage of his career.

Angel Acosta is a huge puncher and is also better technically than Mendoza so I can’t see him losing unless he gets hit by a big punch he doesn’t see coming. I think Angel Acosta will win by knockout in the sixth round due to being levels above Mendoza who isn’t competitive with people who are world class.
