Taravious Cloud vs. B-Hop may be in 2013 what do people think of that.

I am almost 100% sure the Ward/Pascal fight is all but a done deal for a March HBO date

BTW Jorge Linares fights this weekend in Sacramento , CA as well

I think Cloud beats the shyt out of Hopkins. I don't even care about this fight really. Hopkins should retire. I mean he used to spoil and fight negatively back in the day, but now it's unbearable. He's had a good career. Cloud is aggressive and can punch, and he has better skills than Pascal and doesn't get gassed after 5 rounds.
Hopkins doesn't need to be fighting any young gun like that. If Hopkins wants another fight he may as well rematch Glen Johnson who actually wants that fight.

Joan “Little Tyson” Guzman (33-0-1, 20 KOs) is preparing to fight for the vacant WBA super lightweight crown against IBO titleholder Khabib Allakhverdiev (17-0, 8 KOs). The belt was formerly held by Marcos Maidana who moved up in weight. A few weeks ago, Guzman’s promoter Henry Rivalta began talks with Allakhverdiev promoter Vladimir Hrunov and the fight is now 100% for November 30 at a WBA “KO Drugs” promoted by Acquinity Sports at the Bank Atlantic Center in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Rivalta stated, “This fight will be the main event of the night we present the first KO Drugs event in the United States. We’re excited to present this world title fight. We’re the most active promoter in Florida and we are committed to presenting the best in our fight cards.”

"There are no excuses for my defeat against Martinez. I had problems with my nose. It was busted from an uppercut. From the eighth round I was swallowing blood as I continued fighting. In this round I knew I had lost the fight."

saw that ringside with Khan and Kell Brook on, Khan was ripping brook to his face its was pretty sad. Khan guarenteed to knock Brook out when they fight. We know what happened last time he promised that

I want to see Andre Ward vs Edwin Rodriguez. I'm sure Ward wins that, but it'd be a good technical fight to watch.

More than likely HBO wouldn't buy the purse bid of that fight hence his "rumored" move up to 175 to fight Pascal.

I like the idea him taking a step up, he is a super middleweight version of Carlos Molina in many ways.

he (edwin) is #3 on WBC list of super mids for what it is worth

 

[AlbertPullhoez]

I guarantee you that he misses weight

He trains with me and other fighters in Queens, NY. He spars bigger fighters all of the time, I sparred with him quite a few times. He trains little kids too. Guzman is a good dude but he is a damn beast, I feel sorry for the dudes he spars thats his size. True story. I have history with dude.

How is his power for his size? KO ratio indicates he can box too

Power? Sheeeeeit! His power is ill but it's his natural street fighting (not boxing) skill and thr fact that he's crazy ( no Lol). This dude has a HARD skull and the harder you hit him the crazier he gets. His weakness is a very skilled boxer who can move and confuse him, ala Floyd and Martinez. When we spar I feel his punches in my body most because he can hardly reach my head because he is like 5'5. Since I'm much taller and heavier than him, I'm used to help him with his inside offense and me just hitting him with 1s and 2s to his head. Bottom line he is a great dude who has a God given talent. He trains those kids hard as hell, no remorse. Little dudes be like and he always has this face barking at them in Spanish
