co-feature Tony Grano vs. Eric Molina


I'm looking forward to the Arreola vs. Bermane Stiverne... I hope its a throwback HW bout

sometimes it beez like that breh...and I love it.

I am predicting Zab to pull the upset. Garcia will prove a lot to me by beating Zab. Zab has only lost to quality fighters.

I also predict Quillen to win. I dont think Diaz has enough to take out Khan. Wilder should dispose of Harrison easy. Harrison freezes up once the bell rings. I like Stiverne...if he can take Arreola's power I like him in the upset.

Havent seen Grano yet so wont comment on that fight. Likewise with Murray.

 

[yoyoyo1]

After finding out they've given away thousands of free tickets, on principle I'm not trying to pay more than 10 bucks for Garcia/Judah.

Plus how can I miss all the other boxing.

I don't know ow about the upset with zab. I seen a sparring session a few months ago and it wasn't good. The kid was Technically sound so there might be the difference. Either way I could see a upset but my money is on Danny. Like I said before. That kid doesn't do anythinggreat but solid at everything. Plus he doesn't give up.

As for stevern I really don't know. I seen a fight of his and I didn't know what to think of him. Chris just be on some bullshyt fukking around during camp. I don't know if he is serious.

I got a funny feeling about this seriously fight. I don't know what it is. He is getting old and that lay off was kinda long.

As for Kahn. I'm pulling for him to get knocked out

you guys think a lot of Garcia. IDK. I have only seen him against Morales and Khan. if he puts a beating on Zab, he will get my respect. I think its more about where Zab's focus is mentally....and his technical preparation...which is something he was never known for. Zab just shows up to fight and out-athleticize people. He moved the wrong way against Cotto all night....horrible strategy.

Jorge Arce Targets Juanma Lopez For Comeback Clash - Boxing News

By Jhonny Gonzalez

Former world champion Jorge "El Travieso 'Arce, who retired last December after getting knocked out by Nonito Donaire, is willing to return for a comeback fight with Juan Manuel "Juanma" Lopez at a catch-weight fight of 128-pounds.

"I would like to fight Juanma because it is a good fight. Another rivalry between Mexico and Puerto Rico. I think it's good. It's true what they say. I would like to fight again in my life and we could do it at 128 pounds. It can be a great fight and if they tell me to sign a contract now, I'll sign," Arce said to ESPN Deportes.

Arce has a record of 61-7-2 and 46 knockouts. He held titles at flyweight, super flyweight, super bantamweight and bantamweight.

Juanma is a former super bantamweight and featherweight champion. He has a record of 33-2 with 30 knockouts. His last two fights have taken place near the super featherweight limit.

The Puerto Rican boxer is willing to discuss the possibility of doing the fight, if the money is right and his promoters agree that Arce is the best option out there.

Zab will be his usual front-running confidence losing self. Has TKO or submit written all over it. But I love Zab though.

 

[StatUS]

Alvarado vs. rumored for September

He should take the Rios rubber match though.

Has anyone else noticed Canelo and Floyd are sharing the same title

Canelo Alvarez, Floyd Mayweather Both Hold Same Title from WBA & 40 Thieves

Can you imagine the NFL, NBA, or major league baseball claiming at the end of the year that two teams won the same championship? Of course not. The fans wouldn’t stand for it. But although this particular situation is new even to boxing, fight fans learned long ago that when it comes to titles, almost anything is possible.
Alphabet gangs love to bestow titles on boxers because it allows them to extract “sanctioning” fees from fighters. Over the years they have learned to award geographical titles, “interim” titles, and even “youth” titles. These days they also charge sanctioning fees in “elimination” bouts that offer no titles at all. As each gang comes up with a new fee-producing gimmick, the others immediately copy it. In the future, maybe they’ll start extracting fees from the fighters’ mothers or award titles for tattooed and non-tattooed fighters. Maybe I better stop giving them ideas.
Anyway, in Canelo’s case the WBA chiselers exceeded all previous scams. They gave him a title for beating Trout, but Mayweather holds that belt for beating Miguel Cotto a year ago. Apparently they were loath to strip Floyd, everybody’s Number One pound-for-pound fighter, but they were also loath to let the title lie unused on Mayweather because he fights only occasionally and favors the welterweight division. He will defend his WBC welterweight belt against Robert Guerrero, the WBC “interim” champ.
Last month the WBA listed Mayweather as its “super” champion in the 154-pound division and Trout as its “world” champion. But it also awarded a “super” belt to Canelo after the victory over Trout and didn’t strip Mayweather. Gilbert Mendoza, who oversees the WBA gang, says he will figure all this out later. Honest. That’s his story. He will ask Floyd pretty please to tell him whether he expects to defend his 154-pound belt any time in the future. Mendoza could try “ordering” a title fight between its two “supers,” but clearly he’s afraid to demand anything from either of them. It would be terribly embarrassing if one or both disobey. Then everyone might figure out this WBA emperor has no clothes. The truth is, you could hear loons babbling in subways whose pronouncements make more sense. It’s important to Mendoza that no one figures this out.
You might expect that the WBA will just bump Mayweather out of the picture, but in the past these title factories have awarded belts and claimed later that they were just kidding or something. Graciano Rocchigiani once captured the vacant WBC light heavyweight title by defeating Michael Nunn by split decision, but the WBC claimed later it was only the interim title. Rocchigiani eventually won a $31 million lawsuit over that one. The WBC settled later for an undisclosed sum that came in installments. This should be a lesson to the WBA, but these guys don’t always learn the obvious lesson.
Canelo, who already held an undisputed WBC 154-pound belt, wants to fight Mayweather, and of course Mayweather says he would like to fight Canelo, but unfortunately Mayweather’s pronouncements sometimes have a way of turning out to be a long way from what actually transpires. He said for years that he would like to fight Manny Pacquiao, that he hoped the match would “happen,” apparently believing that multi-million-dollar fights “happen” all by themselves without anything as mundane as, say, a contract signing.
Right now Mendoza and the Forty Thieves of the WBA have egg on their faces and dollars in their pockets, but if they don’t make a move soon somebody might notice their ridiculous greedy double-dealing has exceeded even their previously ridiculous greedy double-dealing. Their entire phony structure could be in danger. They’re behaving like the two con-men producers in Mel Brooks’s “The Producers” who parceled out several thousand percent ownership in their Broadway production.
At some point Showtime and Golden Boy Promotions, which are stuck with each other and also tied to both fighters, might have to intercede to iron out those identical titles. But they, like the WBA, don’t want to anger either Canelo or Floyd, who, because of their ability to pull in fans, hold plenty of power. So far the promoter and the network have gone along with the WBA without talking about the problem, apparently hoping that maybe no one will notice.

Did you read the part where Mendoza said "He'll figure it out later"?
