    **** it, let him loose. It's not a great division - he just went up against the guy he should have been steering clear of.


    You wouldn't be entertained if they bussed Ola out to Russia?

    Could be. There are plenty good upcoming fighters... Which champion does he want to fight?

    Oh. :oops:

    Yeah Kucher looks really sound. Not as explosive or exciting as Chakhkiev but really nice prospect.

    Grigorian says he has no clue what happened with Rakhim and his cardio. Says it's almost like somebody gave him a pack of cigarettes and he smoked them all right before the fight :lol:

    Oh well. Sweetboxing should have it up in a few. Was it FOTY material?

    I was a very exciting fight. But not FOTY worthy for me. Rakhim just looked bad. I mean it just dont looks good when you start to get tired after 5 ****ing rounds. **** stamina. Not a good combination when you have a bad defense.

    Dmytro seems to be going the WBC route, he's the WBC International Champion and is currently ranked #3 so we could see him and Wlodarczyk in the near future. He fights July 13th on the Monaco card.

    WBC
    Frag
    Rakhkim
    Kucher
    Masternak
    Branco
    Drodz

    So perhaps Wlod will fight his mandatory Frag while Kucher vs Masternak fight for the next mandatory spot?

    Oh my. You have said a mouthful. :)

    That would deserve the "Hook City" heading far more than Jones vs. - was it Lacy? Whichever PPV he rolled out the campy Peter Pan villainous getup.

    Wow.

    I have said recently a certain few folks have been discrediting Wlod too much. He is a very solid titlist for CW.

    This was better than Rios/Alverado II or Maidana/Lopez for me. Similar to Lopez/Maidana but more sustained action, drama and knockdowns. Rios/Alverado II was nothing special. Nice display of boxing from Alverado in the second half of the fight but definitely not FOTY worthy.

    It's among the four best fights of the year, imo. I personally liked Maidana-Lopez a little more, but like you, I prefer it to Rios-Alvarado II. More sustained action throughout this fight, where there were a couple of lulls in action in the Rios-Alvarado rematch (comparatively speaking).
