Boxrec puts fights on the schedule before they're actually signed. It should not serve as any kind of confirmation. Also, Arum talked a bit...
Bad fight for Wlad. The Klitschkos have taken multiple humiliating event losses in a row, and now he wants to take on one of the best ever?
Not confirmed at all and in fact the original story on this did not even have a quote directly from Arum stating Rigondeaux would be the opponent....
Main Events + Fight on the east coast means Sergey doesn't have to worry about such minor things things like legitimacy :yep
Not one legit lineal champ in the lot.
:bart
Your description of the Uzelkov fight is not very accurate in my opinion, specifically the notion that Campillo was prime at that point in his...
You're really reaching in this thread IB.
If the idea is that Arum is protecting Rigondeaux, why was he the one so enthusiastic about making that fight before Donaire's new contract?
Cameron Dunkin is saying it will be John, Rigondeaux, or Vic. I kind of hope it's Vic just so I can see how people try to justify that.
Abridged tweet. Should read "Might see me calling out guys for fights I'll turn down around Oxnard soon ;)"
Good point.
There's no actual quote from Arum saying this fight will happen in the Scene article in question.
It's probably the fault of Floyd and that crossdresser Oscar.
Yeah this idea that Pavlik remains a big draw in the US has absolutely no evidence behind it. His cancelled fight at Youngstown did not sell out...
