Ice Tea and Jackyle. In a tweet to Title Bout Boxing I suggested they run a fight between Canadian heavyweight champ Neven Pajkic and Montreal-resident Oscar Rivas who is recognized by the NCC as the leading contender. They tell me Rivas is not in the game, so I took a stab just so you'd have a base to work from. Rivas is heavier than when he beat Kubrat Pulev in the amateurs. He stands 6'1" and weighs around 235 now. He's a bit of a plodder. Forgets to jab. Not great defensively but has a sturdy chin and some power with overhand rights and short lefthooks. Early on he tired by the 4th. Best fight was a split decision over local boy Sylvera Louis, a fairly slick boxer. Rivas, alias Kaboom, has being feeding off Europeans with numerous kayo losses on their records. Presently 12-0 with 7 knockouts (6 in 3 rounds or less). Hard to say how good he will get.

P.S. Just ran fight between Pajkic (rated by the game at Pre-Prime) and my version of Rivas. Rivas won a majority decision. I lean towards the more experienced Pajkic in RL right now.
