    this is some Don King bull****.

    First the card was announced

    Campbell vs Funeka
    Mayorga vs Angulo
    Martinez vs Santos

    now the card is

    Campbell vs Funeka
    Angulo vs Bum
    Martinez vs Cintron

    NOBODY ANY GOOD WILL BE WILLING TO FIGHT ANGULO ON SUCH SHORT NOTICE!!!

    I feel like I have to scream here. This idea is just completely untenable. Plus, it's one of those fights that would be worth a lot more money to both if they wait a year or two (if Julio doesn't beat Kirkland, that is).

    I just hope it's not Cornelius Bundrage.

    Why the hell would Kirkland fight Angulo on less than two weeks notice? Why would HBO mess up their March 7th card by allowing this to happen? This proposed fight makes very little sense.

    I don't think that the fight will be any better down the road between Angulo and Kirkland ... it makes for an exciting fight now ... this fight can put the 154 lb division on the boxing map.

    What makes Kirkland v Angulo any better later on?

    Both of these guys can get knocked out before it even gets to that point.

    Are you guys forgetting the memorable match ups with undefeated fighters?

    It's not any better later on. The fight would be more interesting NOW, but c'mon man. Be realistic.

    Kirkland is a contending prospect right now. Why would he take such a dangerous fight on 10 days notice? He needs the full 2-3 month training. Asking any fighter to take a fight on such short notice is asking a lot. Mayorga's replacement will likely be some tomato can or maybe a washed-up veteran fighter looking for a quick paycheck..
