:why: Danny Garcia fighting in Puerto Rico on 3/15? Thought he was above that kinda thing at this point.

Juan Manuel Lopez & Dan Ponce De Leon in a rematch, and Deontay Wilder also on the card.

:ehh:

i just saw that erik morales is fighting again in march:stopitslime:
He beat the shyt out of Maidana, and we seen what Maidana did to boxing's future, why not, the skill in the game is declining immensely, not to mention a potential big money ppv match vs his rival JMM n Mexico to close out both of their careers hang in the balance



Morales just needs to stay far the fukk away from Swift, that's all:demonic:

naaaa...i'm just saying i thought he was a Vegas fighter now because of the big win on the Mayweather card. Maybe i overreacted, but whatever. :manny:
They are trying to further his brand for a potential Mayweather match in September, he stole the show from Mayweather/Canelo in Vegas, Brooklyn has adopted him, and now they are trying expand on that with him being PR and all

Out of your mind breh, he boxed the shyt out of Maidana with one eye, he was supposed to be faded and done, muthafukker looked like a corpse, Maidana could barely answer questions post match because he was so embarrassed, the look on his face would tell you he felt he loss....The fight had no business of being close

:snoop: Even if you feel Morales won thats not the same as beating the shyt outta someone, Floyd beat the shyt outta Gatti ,Mosley beat the shyt outta Chetto, Manny beat the shyt outta Hatton! Maybe he could barely answer questions because he was in a 12 round battle and was exhausted, hell maybe he was embarrassed because he was in a war with a guy who for almost all the fight had 1 eye and he couldnt get him out of there and factor in him being the favorite, or maybe he was just being humble.

Swift trying to build that PR support up like Cotto has and Trinidad had. Your marketability increases exponentially when you can boast as being an entire culture's hero.

You must have forgotten that Paulie has an all time great jab that was able to keep guys like Broner and Cano from walking him down and snapping his head back repeatedly.

If he can dominate those guys, I'm sure he can beat a headcase like Ortiz. :mjlol:

Ortiz will beat the ever loving shyt out of Paulie this aint no fukking Broner...............And please stop with Cano, Cano beat the shyt out of Paulie and I was rooting for my fellow brooklyn fighter there


Paulie simply doesn't have anything for Ortiz to fear or anything to make his mentally weak ass second guess himself

Victor Ortiz hand speed and power in both hands will destroy Paulie breh......PLUS, Ortiz is a come forward fighter. He will walk right through Malignaggi.


I'd expect Malignaggi to be very bloody and cut all over by the end of the fight if he survives the full 12. There is no way possible I can see Ortiz losing to Paulie.


A couple jabs and slap boxing is not gonna stop Victor Ortiz who will not only be the bigger and stronger man, but also, has more hand speed and alot of power in his punches.


*edit*

Wait a minute. That was a @LauderdaleBoss post that I quoted....I sense sarcasm in that post now, especially with the "if he can dominate those guys" when we both know AB was smacking that nikka Pauletta clean in that fight:ohlawd:
