Same night, different venue sees Rafael Marquez fighting too. Sep 25 - Ward v Dirrell WBA SMW Title (Super Six) Oct 2 - Froch v Abraham (rumoured date)
Calderon vs Casimero will be VERY interesting. Not quite as exciting prospect as Iron Boy vs Segura (Calderon survives the first 4 rounds, and I think he will, and he's walking it) but more intriguing because I haven't seen this kid: but he beat Canchilla, who I still rate quite highly amongst today's light fly crop: appeared a sound technician in defeating Segura with ease, didn't disgrace himself in the rematch (and the stoppage was controversial to say the least) but despite his apparent fragility, I think Canchilla can come again. Still, as soon as Joyi moves up they all get annihilated.
He's outmanouverable rhoufh. Calderon may be fading but he's shown a good chin throughout his career. I think he'll soundly outbox Segura down the stretch.
How the heck are those two fighting for the title? Kim's an exciting fighter, and this should be a good fight, but there are more deserving fighters out there IMO. Overall, the schedule is looking very good right now :good
You what? Its more just his awkward punching style that could be awkward for a defensive wizard like Iron Boy.
:happy And Ward-Dirrell should be on September 25th! September 18th won't just be Rafa, it could be Rafa-JuanMa if JuanMa beats Concepcion!!! How ****ing awesome is that?! Mexico-Puerto Rico on Mexican Independence Day weekend
Like ive just said twice up there, whats the big excitment about...? when half of these fights are not even on British TV...?
Fair enough mate but that's how it is for the armchair boxing fan at the moment. Just got to get on with it. These are the ones that will be on telly. Jul 31 - JM Marquez v Juan Diaz - WBO/WBA LW Title Jul 31 - Jacobs v Pirog, Casa v Guerrero, Linares v R Juarez Sep 4 - Burns v Martinez - WBO SFW Title Sep 4 - Simpson v Smith - CWealth FW Title Sep 10 - Molitor v Booth - IBF SBW Title Sep 25 - Ward v Dirrell WBA SMW Title (Super Six) Oct 2 - Froch v Abraham (rumoured date) I know it sucks but we can't do anything about it.
