    Teo better be on or Barboza will beat him. In fact I am calling it now to say Barboza wins.

    I think Barboza will win as well but a schooling? I can’t help feeling the excellent Ramirez may have seen better days but if not then he could win. Ryan should be able to beat Rolly but all bets are off if powerful Rolly can land on Ryan.

    I just tried to watch the Caterall - Barbosa fight, actually it was an 8 minute highlight video. I couldn’t even get through the “highlights”…. Man I’m glad Catterall lost.

    Barbosa is a very solid fighter with good fundamentals, but he really shouldn’t beat Lopez…. Although Lopez is known to turn in dud performances against opponents where this is the expectation.

    I don’t think he’s as awkward as Sandor or as fast or dynamic defensively as Jamaine Ortiz, and I think Teo won’t have as hard of a time getting to him for these reasons.

    Time will tell. This is a good and fun card, I’m very interested to see how Devin looks coming back.

    Great card. Perhaps the dumbest lineup of boxers on a card ever.

    I came here to say that I think Garcia is going to blast Rolly out in the first round.

    Teo barely won a round against Kambosos, Ortiz and Martin, so it's a distinct possibility. Haney will most likely win, but a focused and relentless Ramirez with a fire lit under his ass could make it rough for him, although like you said, he has seen better days. Romero couldn't put a dent in Jaimes, Barroso or Marinez, whereas a marauding Duarte, who'd KO everyone of those bums with ease, as well as Romero himself, gave Ryan everything he could handle, and he soaked it up, brutally KO'd him and came out of the match relatively unscathed. Ryan decapitates him, and yes.... much quicker than Stank.

    Haney won a gift over Loma.

    Teofimo won gifts over Sandor Martin and Jamaine Ortiz

    Barboza won a gift against McComb

    Rolly won a gift and Jackson Martinez and Barroso was robbed blind against him by that corrupt pencil moustache snake Tony Weeks

    All courtesy of the US boxing mafia

    I'm just being real with you

    Don Trella tried to rob Kambosos with his 114-113 card for Teo making it a split decision but George was just too relentless that night and couldn't be denied.

    Outside in NYC in May? They'd better be prepared with a cover over the ring and observers need to bring their umbrellas.
