    I just looked and he was on the undercard of the Pavlik/Rubio fight so I saw him there. Can't say I really remember much about the fight though.

    No -- Jones was preparing for Calzaghe during that time period.

    Jake Gurieccio. He is 2-0 (2). He's young and developing. He has a very good amateur background. He scored a ko on the pav v rubio card. Herm, the May event is cancelled. Someone else got the day. Maybe the end of june or july, outside.

    All we want to see is Pavlik/AA at 160. It'd be hyped up as maybe fight of the year, but Arum doesn't want Pavlik losing anymore (Arum's opinion, not mine). If they fight at 168, it just won't feel special.

    Your theory is wrong. Arum does not think he can make money on Pavlik/Abraham because the pay out would be to high. It's that simple.

    Arum has kept all of his fighters in with inferior comp with the exception of AM. We are sick of it, tired of it, and we won't get to see brontosaurus brain fight Abraham at 160.
