Daz Answer to A - Yes it would be and yes he would be. When A fighter moves division he loses 25% of the points he has accrued, considering Choc's high ranking at 168, he would still be way up there at '60. He could even fight him tomorrow for it as he would have enough points if he won to end up well within the Top-35. The IBO won't officially rank him at middle until he makes the weight in that division
Margarito vs Mosley will be on Main Event definitely. Berto v Collazo & Katsidis v Ramirez wont be shown on Main Event. Main Event could very well pick up Top Rank's feed of the split site location PPV involving Cotto, Pavlik & a defense of Juanma Lopez's title. Main Event better show it.:fire:fire
Word on the street is HBO have not approved Rubio or Jennings as opponents for Pavlik and Cotto, so stand by on that one. Glad that Margarito v Mosley will be on here, but again, it's not even a PPV in the States...
Its not a HBO PPV, so why would they have to approve Pavlik & Cotto's opponents.:nut Its a independant Top Rank PPV & always has been.
Mate this is the mail... Apparently with the economy the way it is...they are looking for quality fights in 09 and have sent promoters scrambling. They won't approve Rubio for Pavlik.. They won't approve Jennings for Cotto.. They allegedly rejected Taylor vs Froch (telling Taylor it either Wright or Kessler) They allegedly told Kessler people it either Dawson or Taylor if he wants back on HBO They (along with Showtime) rejected Edison Miranda and Allan Green for Andre Ward. They allegedly informed Winky if he want to keep his 3/14 date....it either Kessler, Abraham, Taylor or Williams...Wright wanted a tune-up first. HBO is not paying for any more mis-matches.
Rejecting Taylor for Froch is flat out crap. I wonder if they change their minds after Fox (in the US) shows Froch v Pascal. I'd also have no worries with Miranda or Green for Ward. That being said they've also committed to Dawson v Tarver II...
Ive read all that on other websites and yeah its all true. Good to see them clamp down i suppose but rejecting Taylor Vs Froch is stupid.
