    I don't know alot about JCC Jr, but gut feeling says Martinez is a class above and will expose that gap.

    Canelo vs Ortrees is a compelling matchup - have no idea why people assume this is a foregone conclusion for Canelo, I'm picking Ortiz in this one, perfect matchup of styles for him, and still think Canelo is a little bit of a hypetrain haven't been impressed yet.

    GoldenBoy always wanted to make fights together, Arum wanted none of it.

    I want to see Ortiz fight but don't care too much about Canelo. Who has he really beat?

    Jcc jr vs martinez for the lineal middleweight title? Cmons.. get real guys. This is 110% the fight to watch.

    He's still annoyed that Floyd and GBP got Cinco de Mayo and prevented from him staging his Rios, Marquez, and/or Chavez mismatches on that date. No way he misses out on the other big PPV date of the year.

    I'd say let them both go head to head and may the best card win. Problem is, we know HBO has the deeper pockets here and it isn't really about the card. GBP generally put on more compelling 'complete shows' than does TR. TR seems to give all the money to the top guys and the rest of the card suffers for it. Is it fair? While we may want to see a good card from top to bottom we may be in the minority. If I buy a ticket to a venue I'll be there from the opening bout, but we all know that the first guys fight in front of empty seats. Many people don't even show up to the arena much before the main event.

    The one significant card that's been co-promoted by the two companies within the last few years was one where the Top Rank guy Gamboa was the clear favorite. Arum will only play with others if he's forced into it or if the Top Rank fighter is clearly the better-regarded fighter.
