Yeah, it's not a very compelling fight...or ambitous match-making Goossen probably doesn't want to take any chances with his ranking...no...
Chris Arreola-Jameel McCline will be the co-feature.
Interesting way to sell a rematch.
It'll be televised.
I agree, I wouldnt be surprised at all if he loses to Julio. Maybe I didn't word it the way I meant it. Independent of the match-ups on...
Well, to be fair, Guerrero's already gone further than Ortiz and I don't think he's necessarily done at 130. Ortiz appears to be a good...
No, I'm basing it on his stance and footwork. It doesn't take a lot of movement to get out of his direct path and set up nice counter...
I don't agree. If a fighter gives Kirkland side-to-side movement and angles, he'll look bad.
Yep. This is a really good match-up. By far the fight I'm looking forward to the most on this card.
He does get visibly discouraged. I think part of that is he simply doesn't have a plan B. His style doesn't really change, from fight to...
Doug Fischer:
Trinidad's best "win" supposedly came against DLH. Outside of that win, Trinidad didn't beat, let alone fight, many truly elite fighters at the...
Comparing Trinidad's resume to DLH's does what, exactly? After fighting Whitaker in his first fight in the division, DLH's competition went...
Kirkland has bad balance. Very bad balance.
He isn't fighting Jesus Chavez.
The same ones that thought it relevant to mention Camacho beat Sugar Ray Leonard?

Why respond to him?
These are among the best welterweights he successfullly defended against, they're also all fighters that lost to De La Hoya...and hardly used to...
For what it's worth, Boxingconfidential has this:
I don't know, Marquez is perhaps the most popular Mexican boxer around today. He does bring his own fan base to the fight, which seems like a...
Marquez also disposed of Robbie Peden and Joel Casamayor...not that it matters.
I got a copy of 'What About Bob?' that begs to differ.
I specifically listed those years because I was giving him some credit for who he fought outside of that period. The number of defenses is...
He made a lot of defenses, but let's be clear, between Blocker and De La Hoya (and certainly from '95-'98) there weren't a whole lot of elite...
Ghostwrite it.:kidcool:
I disagree that it was the Gainer fight, Smoke's reputation preceded him in that fight, and it was clear he wasn't really trying to fight. I...
From BoxingScene: Donaire vs. Martinez is Off, According to Cameron Dunkin Posted by: Ronnie Nathanielsz on 03-01-2009. By Ronnie...
They have a lightweight card coming up with Joel Casamayor-Julio Diaz, Jorge Rodrigo Barriors-Carlos Hernandez and Michael Katsidis-Jesus Chavez....
Texas is one of the few states Edwin Valero is licensed, so if he wins the vacant WBC his next fight, maybe once Diaz's wounds have healed they...
