    The later replacement for Robert Stieglitz's WBO title defense has been named,it's Ruben Eduardo Acosta of Argentina(23-3-5,7 KOs) who has a unimpressiive record with losses to Mariano Carrera,Anthony Mundine,Karoly Balszay but with wins over Nestor Casanaova twice,Julio Cesar Vaszquez,Gustavo Kapusi.
    Denis Boytsov vs Kevin Montyi and Christian Hammer vs Marek Tomala also on the card.

    Jameel McCline is returning february 24th in Hungary for a fgiht against Hungarian veteran Zoltan Petranyi.He will also figt in Germany,England,France and maybe some more.

    Why not?

    He's not gonna be fighting top competition by the looks of things.

    Hopefully McCline is getting at least 50k, otherwise it probably wouldn't be worth it.

    He isn't in any danger of gettinghurt if he fights lower class guys while still getiing money.

    I've always sort of liked McCline, he made himself a solid heavyweight for years and was willing to face top competition. Him beating up a bunch of nobodies, over in Europe while making some money isn't a bad idea. It wouldn't be totally surprising to see him string together some wins and then cash out one last time against a prospect. Smart move on his part.
