BoxingScene.com has been advised that Oscar “Kaboom” Rivas (18-0, 13 KOs) failed an eye exam with the California State Athletic Commission, and as a result his scheduled fight with Gerald “El Gallo Negro” Washington (16-0-1, 11 KOs) is canceled.

The ten round heavyweight bout was set to take place on Saturday, February 27, as the Showtime televised opener from the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif.

The telecast will still feature two world title fights. In the main event, undefeated three-division world champion Leo “El Terremoto” Santa Cruz will make the first defense of his Featherweight World Championship against former world champion Kiko Martinez. Televised coverage begins live at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT with the exciting super bantamweight world title rematch between Mexican power-punchers Julio Ceja and Hugo Ruiz.

Rivas, who represented Columbia at the 2008 Olympics, fought exclusively as a pro in his adopted hometown of Montreal before making his U.S. debut with a first-round knockout of Jason Pettaway in June 2015. The 28-year-old is riding a seven-fight knockout streak and most recently took down Joey Abell in the second round of a November 2015 fight. He will be looking to impress against the toughest opponent of his career on February 27.

Boxers are so lucky they have so many outlets to subsidize their fights when most of these guys deserve UFC money, in reality

How do you fail an eye test though? He couldnt see a letter on the chart? Its not like youre gonna pass the test next time either. Is it over for this guy's career?

 

[Figaro]

I'm putting big money on Frampton tomorrow, think he's levels above about autistic Quigg.

RigonGOAT would give both of them the work on the same night though

A fight between two shook overhyped bums who need to hurry up and get this over with so the winner can catch the fade and hand over rigos belts to him


Sky Sports and the pundits are gonna be fuccin unbearable these coming weeks

Rigo fighting in the UK a few weeks later and he is the mandatory to the winner

If I'm Rigo, I'm at the fight ringside in tv range and watching them fight like

Not to be that guy, but Northern Ireland is part of the UK, it's the republic that isnt. So it's more like N.Ireland Vs England.

Either way, looking forward to this fight, didn't realise it was this close.

Iont know nothing bout which republic is apart of what but
I'm getting the same feeling I had for Bute v Degale

Both camps hate the other and whoever fukks up is gonna get hurt

I just don't know who it'll be
