- Believes that Lomachenko vs. Walters will get done and be on HBO. Will it be done for an April 30th date...wait and see.
- Arum and Peter Nielson are going to be at the fight together tomorrow and Arum said they are going to talk further about a Lomachenko and Postol double header.
please make it happen

- Joe Mesi was good for boxing because he had a great fan base, was good with the media and fairly interesting. Didn't believe he was a top tier fighter.
i can get with this about joe mesi

- If J Rock wins he becomes the mandatory for Jermall Charlo's title.
154 needs this fight

- Vargas vs. Salido a done deal for June 4th at StubHub.
time to look into planning on seeing if i can be in the house for this

ODH best win? Vargas or Quartey.
Vargas was his best win, but quartey was his best fight

- Mohegan Sun still gets first shot to try and resecure Thurman-Porter when it is back on, per DiBella.
as it should..i want to see this still even though the ring rust is going to be crazy on both of them

- Does not like rehydration clauses.
neither do i

- Was Pavlik's drinking problem known before the Hopkins fight? It was an open secret for years.
its amazing he only has 2 losses on his record

- The GRJ fight and Pedraza-Smith will be April 16th at Foxwoods.
:ehhh: will try to be in the house for that...i wonder if its a showtime type card or PBC

Great weekend of fights...

Browne with the come from behind KO, :obama: He'll definitely be a good bout for Martin/Joshua winner or Wilder/Fury down the road. For a big dude he can move around the ring a bit.

Ali getting stopped basically for not pumping out a consistent jab. nikka allowed himself to get walked down to much and couldn't establish any real distance. Vargas finally put it all together though. Dude was getting into Ottke territory with all those close decisions he be getting. Glad to seem him decisively beat a decent boxer.. Ali is like Paulie with power, but no jab. Dude is too quick and talented to get hit so much.

Ortiz ain't look all that special against a past it ass Thompson that was just going through the motions. At least he got him out of there so I'll give him that.

Margarito/Paez Jr was the fight of the weekend though. Them nikkas went at it hard. Margarito fought with more life/spunk than I seen in the Cotto rematch, but during the 2nd half of the fight, he was reduced to throwing arm punches. Good work on the inside though. Just ain't seem like his shots had much on them, but at least he was throwing. That knockdown had him looking :flabbynsick: as fukk though.

Margarito ain't look as finished as Angulo, but I don't see him doing much against better opponents.
Paez is a career C level dude that is past it and he was giving just as good as he was taking in that fight.

Damn Ortiz/Berto 2 on the UC of Badou/Jack same night as PBL/Butterknife man

Hopefully, both of them just go around attempting avenge their losses:banderas:


Boxing can use Berto vs Ortiz 2, Berto vs Jesus Soto-Karass 2, Berto vs Robert Guerrero 2, Ortiz vs Lopez 2, Ortiz vs Maidana 2, Ortiz vs Rios:whew:
