By Scott Gilfoid: British bantamweight Jaime McDonnell (20-2-1, 9 KO’s) thinks he’s got an easy mark tonight in unbeaten Mexican warrior Julio Ceja (24-0, 22 KO’s) just because the 5’5 ½” Ceja is 2 ½” inches shorter than him. The 5’8” McDonnell says he’s now more than ever certain that he’ll beat the 20-year-old Ceja tonight after standing next to him and looking at the height difference between himself and him.
Ceja and McDonnell will be fighting for the vacant IBF bantamweight title tonight at the Keepmoat Stadium, in Doncaster, UK.
McDonnell said to Sky “I knew I was going to beat Ceja before, but now that I’ve seen how short he is, I know I’m going to win now.”
