A junior lightweight battle between Javier Fortuna and Bryan Vasquez will now open the Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) on Spike telecast on May 29 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Fortuna vs. Vasquez, which was originally scheduled to take place May 23, replaces the bout between Paulie Malignaggi and Danny O’Connor as Malignaggi suffered a severe cut above his eye in training camp. The Fortuna-Vazquez 12-rounder will lead into the clash between former world champions Amir Khan and Chris Algieri. O’Connor will now fight in his hometown of Boston on Saturday, May 23 on the undercard of the PBC on NBC event from Boston University’s Agganis Arena

Keep talking shyt, Paulie.

How do yall feel about this list?

I think Roy would have beat all of them and the only one I really would have been interested in was the Nigel Benn or Michael Nunn fights.
All them fans of pasty EuroCACs who refused to leave fukking Germany for a world title fight against the #1 fighter in the sport at the time can all suck a dikk though acting like Roy Jones was afraid of Dariusz Michalczewski and Sven Ottke.

Erislandy Lara and Canelo Alvarez haven’t agreed on much over the past year, but the junior middleweights were on the same page regarding Gennady Golovkin’s performance Saturday night.Neither fighter was overly impressed by how Golovkin looked during his mostly one-sided, sixth-round technical knockout victory over Willie Monroe Jr. at The Forum in Inglewood, California.Alvarez intimated in a Tweet following Golovkin’s win that he didn’t see anything that would prevent the Mexican star from eventually moving up to middleweight to challenge Golovkin (33-0, 30 KOs). Lara was much more direct in a Tweet that criticized the WBA/interim WBC champion’s knockout win.

This was what Lara, who wants to fight Golovkin at 154 pounds, Tweeted on Sunday: So after last night @GGGBoxing will never fight me and I don’t blame him I would make him look worse than @Canelo #TeamLara #Truth The Cuban-born southpaw referred to how the left-handed Monroe (19-2, 6 KOs) was able to hit Golovkin consistently, despite that his punches had little effect on the knockout artist from Kazakhstan. Lara (20-2-2, 12 KOs) added another in a long line of insults directed at Alvarez to the end of the Tweet.Lara lost a split decision to Alvarez in a 12-round, 154-pound title fight July 12 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The Houston-based contender campaigned for a rematch following their highly competitive bout, but Alvarez (45-1-1, 32 KOs) has dismissed Lara as a runner who shouldn’t be rewarded for his reluctance to engage with another seven-figure payday.

I am not the biggest GGG fan but with the way Lara reacted to the power of Canelo's body shots in their fights I envision him running for his life against Golovkin.

Lara doesn't have enough power to keep GGG off him. And as much as people rave over his boxing skill, he gets hit a lot. Lara tastes canvas if he squares off against Golovkin.

 

[Jello Biafra]

guy is actually funny....do u agree that ur boi canelo should have fought him/belt instead of going for out of ring kirk?

I get why Canelo did the Kirkland fight after coming off 3 of his last four bouts against dudes who are less than scintillating action fighters, he needed something exciting and spectacular.

Top 10 talent is how I look at it breh. Tim was a top 10 talent the past 300 ish weeks, he's not now?

 

[GREENandYELLOW]

Andrade has the potential to be the best at 154. He just needs to fight more and get more ring time. Seems like it is him holding out for more money. As someone mentioned above, his promoter has had some good fights lined up for him, he just turned them down.

Anyone catch the ratings for the Mayweather-Pacquiao replay on Showtime? I wanted to compare those vs. the HBO numbers.

And does someone want to give me the scoop on this Naoya Inoue cat? Only 8 fights, but Max was talking about him like he was a monster.

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

I've seen everyone fight but Shinsuke Yamanaka, I need to watch some videos on him.

That's not how it works though, it only goes by your recent resume


And if it was the case (that it's about Top 10 talent), Timothy Bradley has never been one of the top 10 most talented boxers in the world, so he'd never had appeared on the list in the first place

Inoue is a monster breh.

He fought on the undercard of Roman Gonzalez when he won his most recent title. Inoue also destroyed Omar Navarez in a couple rounds as well.

That kid is every bit as good as Max says he is.

Me personally, he comes off as a hybrid of SRL/RJJ and GGG. Like he can be technical and stalk/pressure guys and beat them up, but he also has some swag in him and he can be flashy and explosive too.
