    I was at the press conference in Chicago earlier today for Pacquiao vs Diaz and Oquendo popped up. I asked what's up and why he hasn't been in the ring. He said that a bout with Arreola fell through, they backed out at the last minute, so his team is now working on a match-up with James Toney for July!

    Fast Fres is not much more than a gatekeeper now.

    Good to hear, but I don't see him doing much in the elite of the HW division.

    I decided that taking a pic of Pac and D. Diaz was better than Fres. (I'm having difficulty uploading it here though)

    I believe his story so there's no need for pics, now if it was a big star in the sport i would demand pics.

    No really, I had Fres the clear winner vs. Byrd, technically he should've won the decision, admit it!
