    Hasim Rahman is garbage and Zuri already pulled off an upset a year ago when he beat McCline. Can Zuri do it again? Rahman usually comes in fat for these tune up fights and very rarely looks impressive, not to mention he's older (35)? Can Zuri do it?? I hope he can Rahman sucks!

    i thought rahman was fighting sherman the tank.

    rahman can be beaten by a guy like zuri if he was having an off night. i'm surprised zuri is still fighting. i've seen the guy take some hellacious beatings.

    McCline sucks, Rahman sucks. If Zuri is even average he should have a great shot at beating Rahman who I consider below average. Plus Rahman is old and shot and he's never looked comfortable throwing punches to me.

    No way in hell that this version of Zuri beats Rahman, hell he is so shot that Rob Calloway would beat him within 2-3 rounds.
    I cant believe that they are letting him fight after his last 2 REAL outings, he is very shot since that brutal KO loss to Brock and then to Guinn, this fight is humilating, Vs and Top Rank should be ashamed of this.

    Have you seen Zuri's last few fights?

    When both Calvin Brock and Dominick Guinn knock you out, it's time to re-think your decision to continue boxing. When they both do so in VIOLENT fashion, it's game over.

    That said, have to agree with joony, sly and pug. Garbage show, one to which we've already paid more attention than it deserves.

    The card is starting right now.
    Zuri has won his last three fights.
    The guy is supposed to be in condition tonight.

    The kid got off of the floor and is winging with him, fun streetfight to watch.

    it seems that after the Brock brutal ko, Lawrence once reliable chin is now made of china, Guinn koed him with some grazing punches, doubt he takes Rahman but who knows with Hassim inconsistency

    That was a good action fight, more hooks thrown than I can remember for quite some time, but Soto appears to have won big.

    I´m sorry, but this is not boxing. Lawrence held for like 2.45 of the round. What is the point?

    rahman almost lost to the rubberman. i wonder if zuri would've beaten had he come more prepared.

    I just read that they combined to land over 850 punches in the fight! Clubfight or not, that's fuckin' insane! And for a 10 round fight, no less.

    That said, what the hell happened to Buendia? Two years ago this guy was being groomed as a major welterweight player.
