    Tavoris Cloud vs Gabriel Campillo
    Paul Williams vs Nobuhiro "Jap-Hearns" Ishida
    Cris Arreola vs ???

    That's a pretty decent card. Campillo deserves a good fight after getting shafted a few times. Cloud was stupid for signing with Don King as this will probably be his only fight all year but he's an entertaining fighter and I'd love it he fought Pascal cos that has the makings of terrific fight.

    Ishida has obviously got this off the back of the Kirkland win and why not? With Lara fighting Ronald Hearns the week before hopefully he and Williams win and Erislandy gets the rematch he deserves. If Paul loses this then he's done isn't he?

    Dunno who Arreola is facing but he's meant to be on the Showtime broadcast so it can't be someone shite.

    Who promotes Arreola anyway? Maybe in 6 months time an Arreola v Mitchell fight?

    I think P-Will get past Ishida. Ishida is kind of like Litzau was going into the Broner fight (won last fight despite being major underdog).

    Williams v Ishida could be a good scrap!

    Arreola's with Dan Goossen who also has Eddie Chambers. That's a fight that should be made :yep

    Three US heavies, around the same level that could make a series of decent, if not high level scraps.

    I bet Cloud/Campillo falls through.

    Cloud's been mismanaged. Like a lot of DK fighters these days. I also remember Devon Alexander being in the same type of spot that Cloud is in. Inactivity is a fighters worst enemy.

    That should be a very entertaining card if it stays as it is.

    Nope, should be something you'd expect Boxnation to get :-(.

    They're talking about Paris/Judah for the second NBC show, really good crossroads fight that.
