Official March 8th card!

Figueroa broke his hand against Arakawa. And won at least 2/3 of the rounds. Just because it was a war doesn't mean "life and death." Figueroa never got in any real trouble in the fight.

Linares doesn't beat anyone easily anymore.

Crawford fighting Burns in his hometown... lets hold off giving credit until the fight goes down. I will be picking Crawford but not by a landslide and Burns is a big step up from Prescott last year for Crawford.

 

I could see Linares vs. Arakawa following the Linares vs. DeMarco script.

Jorge boxes Nihito's ears off for several rounds, gets complacent, and suffers at the heavy (and patient) hands of Arakawa if he is unable to have gotten rid of him by then...which he probably won't be.

Of course being scheduled for ten instead of twelve helps Linares tremendously.

 

so I'm not the only one who thought this. EVERYBODY was saying how Arakawa had zero power vs Figueroa and I'm sitting there thinking what the **** is everyone watching. He was turning Figueroa's head 180 degrees from shots that didn't look like much. like an Angulo except even slower.

 

A big time playa{sic} like you should drop 15K on 4 winner parlay.

 

:nod

 

What is PPV worthy?

THis card looks better on paper than some of the recent major PPV events:deal

 

Great card, I'll certainly be watching!

I feel Canelo-Angulo will be fireworks. Always love to watch Santa Cruz fight, and Mijares is no slouch (although not at the top of his game). And Linares is never in a dull fight.

 

depends how much the ppv is going to be? does any one now? if its priced like pac and may then no im not buying.. maybe il think about it if its cheap .. but man if there is no fights on then i mite. nice card tho..

 

I still remember Manny Steward saying Jorge Linares is the best fighter he's ever seen.
