for the record im not with imam fighting somebody like that..i blame his promoter more than anything
Thery excuse works up to a point but there should come a time when a fighter actually demands to fight a real live body especially when that fighter is talking shyt about being ducked.

The problem is that way too many fighters have been able to be babied but still become world champions that everybody wants to do the same thing. Everyone wants to eat a steady diet of tomato cans straight to a legit ABC belt.

Charles Hatley TKOs Anthony Mundine in eleven
By Ray Wheatley — World of Boxing

Dallas super welterweight Charles Hatley (26-1-1, 18 KOs) scored an exciting eleventh round TKO over two-time world champion Anthony Mundine (47-7, 27 KOs) on Wednesday night at the Convention & Exhibition Centre in Melbourne, Australia. Hatley dropped Mundine three times in round two, but “The Man” survived and stayed in the fight although he continued to get the worst of it. After round eight, the WBC’s open scoring showed Mundine behind by five, eleven and nine points. Needing a knockout, the game 40-year-old Mundine dropped Hatley in round ten. However, Hatley responded by flooring Mundine for the fourth time in round eleven and got the stoppage with his fierce follow up barrage prompting Mundine’s corner to throw in the towel. The Texan claimed Mundine’s WBC silver super welterweight title with the win.

Earlier, former light heavyweight world title challenger Blake “Il Capo” Caparello (22-1-1, 6 KOs) outpointed Luke Sharp (13-3-3, 6 KOs) over six rounds.

Aaron Pryor vs. Alexis Arguello


Pryor00003_(1)-530x317.jpg



On November 12, 1982 at the Orange Bowl in Miami, Florida, WBA junior welterweight champion Aaron Pryor, from Cincinnati, Ohio, defended his title against WBC lightweight champion Alexis Arguello, (77-4-0) from Managua, Nicaragua. The always unpredictable Pryor was undefeated at 31-0. Arguello was 77-4. And the fight was a war, a bona fide boxing classic…
