Really bad news about Agbeko. Hopefully Vic-Perez still comes off and Mares keeps busy, if King Kong is just suffering a temporary problem they can still fight later this year.
Here's hoping King Kong makes a speedy recovery. Darch will wanna put on a show being the main event now. Gonna be explosive I reckon. The boxing upset has been consistent the last fortnight, here's hoping the boxing injury doesn't follow suit.
Tomoki kameda has revealed he will not be taking the fight as he is committed to a fight on the 7th may so will not take the fight this Saturday
Not surprised Kameda turned it down. By all accounts Jamoye was robbed against him so couldnt see him giving Mares a fight. Put Vic-Perez up to main event and find some middling fight for co-feature. Hpefully
And I'm glad to read that... Although the fight wouldn't have, presumably, been for the Super 4 trophy, it was something Showtime could ill-afford if they are to pursue along the road of these tournements.
Gutted the fight is off!! Let's hope they can find him a decent enough late replacement for the card to go on. Real shame
I've gotten over the initial disappointment of this fight falling through. If they get a half decent opponent for Mares this will still be a great nights boxing. Vic/Perez is a wonderful match up, these bantamweights have been spoiling us so much with this competition that it made me lose perspective.
Dan twitters Showtime has announced that Saturday's card wil go on with Yonnhy Perez-Vic Darchinyan moving up to the main event. Good call by Showtime.
