According to Michael Marley... -------------- "In other Golden tinged news, the IBF lightweight title bout between undefeated Dominican Joan Guzman and South Africa’s Ali “Rush Hour” Funeka may be placed as a supporting bout under a Nov. 28 HBO rematch between IBF super middleweight champion Lucian Bute and Librado Andrade. The latter is a GBP fighter while Guzman recently inked a long term pact with Oscar de la Hoya's promotional company." -------------- Hell of a card if it comes off. :bbb
It's only a bad card b/c of Money from HBO. Golden Boy is going all out with this card. Guzman - funeka will open up the telecast.
I don't know why you think it's doubful. Boxing after darks has undercard fights before and since both Andrade and Guzman are promoted by gbp, i don't see why it's doubful since gbp and hbo have great relationship?
If Funeka comes in the same shape he did for Zahir Raheem he might be the first man to catch the Dominican dandy.
Why? It's a Golden Boy card and Guzman just signed with them. Doesn't matter if it's B.A.D. or not, the next Golden Boy B.A.D. is a triple-header.
I don't think he'll catch Guzman flush and beside Guzman has proven that he can take a good shots. But i still don't think Funeka can land a big shots on slicker Guzman who will be the fast more skillful fighter.
