:martin: At HBO not going for Lomachenko-Walters. That is a great fight and one of the best they can make in the lower weight classes.
Either they aren't willing to pay the money to make it, or they are trying to protect both guys to keep they hype going for their roster (but Dan said HBO hasn't offered Loma a fight vs. anyone at all).

Arum keeps his media people well. He gets Fat Dan a nice fat dinner every time they meet and he's always giVing him access to info. No way you cannot bend over for a guy that makes you somebody.

As for B Hop he's full of shyt. He was never gonna fight Stevenson and he wanted Co promoter money while he was not dropping a dime. Then took less to fight Kovalev. He also wanted Stevenson in his backyard. @Newzz he wanted to hold a big position in PBC but Haymon already had his team and Hopkins wouldn't add anything new.


So my dude also added Thurman fukked up. He said some people are raising eyebrows and people are pressing Haymon to release more info about his health. Porter is in a bad spot now. He should rematch Broner when he has the chance.


The thurman info:ohhh:

It was a lose/lose situation.

If he loses to Porter, fights like Khan/Brook/Garcia are never gonna happen. They are damn near hard to get for a guy like Keith anyway. Imagine if he lost.

If he beats Porter, everyone will just say he beat a bum. Porter is a good fighter, but his herky/jerky style is not aesthetically pleasing to a lot of fans out there. Keith probably wouldn't get a big welterweight fight for beating him anyway.

If your just looking at this purely from a business perspective, pulling out was the right way to go.

I think Khan landing that Canelo fight should open a lot of Welterweights' eyes.

Canelo is a realistic fight for Welterweights with a decent name looking for a big money fight. He needs opponents, so if nyggas are looking to get paid they need to put their name in the hat.

Just last week he was arrested and charged with an Assault and Battery in Miami-Dade County, Florida. In this it is well documented that he got into an altercation with a few men to where he allegedly “bit” a man on the arm during the fight.


His most recent mugshot that he posted on Instagram

Him being in the limelight has brought attention to this, but this is far from his first arrest during his short adult life (he is 23 years old). He has had multiple run ins with the law that garnered little attention being that this was before his fame in boxing had risen. His juvenile record is not available since most states expunge (hide) these from public record.

His documented troubles began shortly before his 18th birthday in 2007 where he was arrested and charged on 4/3/07 with an Aggravated Robbery, and 2 counts of Felonious Assault and Battery (despite being a minor, due to the severity of the crime he was charged as an adult). All 3 of those charges were Felonies. He was able to be free’d after making a bail of $100,000 cash, but during this period he violated his bond when he was once again charged with Assault and Battery (a misdemeanor version) on 8/17/07. This charge was dropped nearly 3 weeks after.

Broner was acquitted of the 3 major charges as well that October, but this was only the beginning. In September of 2008 he was charged with Carrying a Concealed Weapon (another Felony), but once again was acquitted jury a jury trial 12 months later. During this time while awaiting trial he was unable to stay away from trouble again, being charged with an Intimidation of a Witness and an Aggravated Menacing in December of 2008. But this was dismissed 3 months later due to a lack of feasible evidence. That also counted as a violation of his bond.

He was able to stay out of the courtroom after this for nearly 3 years while he rose thru the ranks as an A-list prospect. But he was arrested once more just a few months ago on 12/21/12, for yet another Assault and Battery. This charge is still pending, and his next court date will be held in the upcoming future on an unspecified date.

During this time once again he failed to live by the guidelines involved with his bond, with his recent Miami arrest.

Adrien Broner’s Arrest Record : A Courthouse Regular

But he also -- after hesitating, after considering whether he should go there -- admitted that a year-plus stint in lockup, for a transgression he chose not to reveal, helped form his character. He was heading to the 2008 Olympics, he said, but got off track. "I got into trouble," Broner said, "and I told myself that if God lets me out of this hole I'm in, I'm really gonna do this boxing thing."

"I come from Cincinnati," he said -- in a way that indicated to me that I really don't know what his conception of Cincinnati really means, and that it can be a scary place -- and "I got into some trouble. Some big trouble, they tried to give me football numbers [a jail sentence for many, many years], receiver, like 85-years stuff."

Broner was asked how long he was locked up for. "A year and some months," he said.

And for what, exactly? "I don't want to get into that," he said, "but I've been through a lot. But I'm back on track. Every day I go in and train like I have nothing, 'cause I ain't never had nothing."

Cesar Juarez lost a grueling, close decision in December, falling short in a bid to win the WBO super bantamweight title against Nonito Donaire, raising his profile in defeat. Now, he's got his next fight set.

The 24-year-old Juarez (17-4, 13 KO) will return on March 5 in Mexico City, part of the card headlined by Antonio Margarito's comeback fight against Jorge Paez Jr. Juarez will be facing Alvin Bais (15-6-1, 4 KO), a 27-year-old Filipino who is 2-6-1 in his last nine fights.


"I learned a lot from the fight with Nonito Donaire and I feel I am just getting better," Juarez said. "This is the first step back to me becoming a world champion one day soon."

Juarez, who had won back-to-back fights over Cesar Seda and Juan Carlos Sanchez Jr before the tight loss to Donaire, could easily find himself back in a bigger fight later this year, as he has an exciting style and proved he can hang on the bigger stage.

The Margarito-Paez card will be televised in the United States by beIN Sports Español.
