    I think it could happen, it's a rare occurance these days of course, but if they want to sell Floyds next opponent it's a great shop window

    If this is true, then rest assured that Floyd's next opponent will be the winner.

    And that's really the most important thing for this card, I'm sure we all agree.

    Looks like Erislandy Lara-Austin Trout is on this undercard. Hopefully Garcia-Matthyssssssse is confirmed.

    According the Kim, Mathysssssse/Garcia isn't finalized. Announcement coming this week either way.

    Lara/Trout is fairly interesting, but probably very stinky.

    Just read that. I hope it's confirmed. I think Matthysssssse wins, but I won't write off Garcia completely.

    Matthysssse-Garcia could be confirmed tomorrow. Golden Boy/Schaefer is holding a conference call tomorrow to announce a major fight. Fingers crossed.

    Could be really fascinating from a boxing snob/purist POV

    Tough rounds to score. Lara's better but I don't think he's as consistent.

    agree

    Two southpaws is almost always a recipe for disaster unless they are brawlers (which is pretty rare) ... You factor in the styles of these guys to go along with that fact and it adds up to a lot of looking at each other, a lot of missed shots

    as long as two fighters don't spend 12 rounds hugging and looking at the ref, I'm happy enough
