    According to Ricardo Lois, Boxing Confidential.

    It had been rumored by the website that it was going to take place on the Pacquiao-Marquez II card.

    Arthur looked terrible in his last fight....he does have problem making the weight and perhaps overlooked Stephen Foster

    perhaps he's just not very good?

    nah, he's looked impressive against some good European opposition.....everyone thought the Foster fight was a mismatch, and as it has done before in his career...caplency could have krept in.....his weight making trouble is genuine, and without the motivation that a big fight brings, he probably struggled more so than usual

    Don't get me wrong....Arthur at his best or worst loses to Guzman...and loses comfortably.....the Arthur that fought Foster would get KOd pretty early....the Arthur that beat Sinitsin, Gulyakevich and Gogoladze would give a decent account of himself...and would lose big on points or by late stoppage

    Caplency kreeping in is something any fighter would struggle with.

    Arthur at his best would give a good account of himself- he's a tough, solid and fundamentally sound little b*stard but he's not beating Guzman.

    Not even with three hands... :slap:

    I have seen Arthur fight several times. He hits a bit harder than Guzman but that's it. No other advantages. He's easy to hit and outbox.
