    Guzman waiting for new date!
    WBO junior lightweight champion Joan Guzman (28-0, 17 KOs) fully intends to travel to Scotland to defend his title against interim champion Alex Arthur (26-1, 19 KOs). The fight, which is currently scheduled for May 3 in Edinburgh, Scotland, however, will likely be rescheduled because Guzman is having trouble securing a visa that will allow him to travel to Scotland. "Guzman is not giving up his belt," said Jose Nunez, Guzman's long time manager. "He's worked extremely hard and gone through tremendous sacrifices to become a world champion. He's simply not going to give up his belt. Guzman will go to Scotland and he will successfully defend his title. The date will most likely be pushed back a bit.....rest assured that team Guzman will have all the appropriate paperwork for this fight. We know what has to be done and we understand the time frame that is needed to accomplish this." Sean Gibbons, matchmaker for Guzman's promoter Sycuan Ringside Promotions stated "We are waiting for Frank Warren of Sports Network to give us the new, rescheduled date." Frank Warren won the rights to this championship fight in a WBO purse bid.


    WBO should strip Guzman now!!!!

    [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]WBO interim 130lb titleholder Alex Arthur's has spoken on the postponement of his May 3 WBO super featherweight title clash against Joan Guzman. "After all the training that I had put in, that included going to America for two weeks, I was angry when I was I told that he couldn't get here on time because of a visa problem," said Arthur. "My training schedule is very precise and I plan everything with my training team to the minute so to have my plans thrown up in the air was a big blow. Once I calmed down and looked at the situation again I realized that I could use this to my advantage because I now have some valuable extra time to prepare with my team.[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Guzman is a great fighter and I know that I have the beating of him, but if I can be 10% faster and stronger because of the delay then it will work in my favor." Promoter Frank Warren added, "We are hopeful to announce a new date for the fight very shortly once we hear from Guzman's promoters Sycuan Boxing that he has received his visa. It's a big disappointment but Alex is a thorough professional and will have to take this in his stride."[/FONT]

    Alex Arthur must be raging at this bitchass move from Guzman trying to weasel out of the fight.

    I agree with PacDBest for the first time ever, strip the ****er of his belt. I want to see him live down the road, but not if he is going to take the ****.

    I re-iterate, **** GUZMAN.
