    Just called Elias to find out if Vic and Lenny's fights were called off because of Abraham & Dirrell being postponed. He said that Vic has now been elevated to Main event and he has got Lenny as the co-feature!!!! I dont think there has ever been two aussies fighting in the States as the main event and co-feature.

    I asked him if it meant Lenny and Vic would be televised on main event , THE ANSWER WAS YES !!!! Hell Yeah !!!! This is going to be stuffin brilliant !

    Lenny has a new opponent for his world title fight , he said its now Fernando Angulo , he is the guy that knocked out Ranee Ganoy, so all the people that wanted to see if Lenny has got what it takes to beat a calibre fighter like Ganoy , he is about to face the kids conqueror !

    AUSSIE !!! AUSSIE !!! AUSSIE !!!

    Good news mate. Hope to see Zappa come up trumps against a quality fighter on the night. He'll cement his name with fans there in no time.

    Very interesting card now.

    Zappa v Angulo is a good fight. Angulo is a serial offender at not making weight though (didn't make weight against Ganoy and didn't for his next fight either...doesn't even come close to making it), so lets see if he makes 135. Zappa's camp have been made aware of this.

    Title became vacant through the death of the Sth African who held the belt. Angulo can be a tricky customer and is very seasoned. He only spent a few days in Sth Africa before icing Ranee and has gone the distance with Juan Diaz. Don king fighter.

    If Zappa has to go 12 rounds it might be a problem, especially it being his second fight in the US. Might be a little too much for him right now.

    Expect angulo to play counter puncher, as that's what he did against Ganoy. Lenny is a come forward fighter, so I'm expecting similar tactics.

    Good on Zappa for taking it...he's up to it if everything goes right for him.

    Angulo can be chinny if he is fighting a half serious puncher mate. I saw his fight against Diaz awhile back and the kid does have heart. But good on Zappa's team if Lenny beats this kid his name is going to start rocketing skywards , especially being a feature on Showtime.

    Willy Kickett and Billy Dib made the move too soon to America, they both have talent to burn so it will be interesting to see if Lenny can crack a win or still be too green for a US start. I think its fantastic its on Main Event.

    Alot will depend on how much notice Angulo got for this fight. I'm thinking not much. If it was short notice, big chance he doesn't make weight. That should mean only Zappa can win the belt if they agree to go ahead with it.

    Lets hope Zappa is in a good frame of mind and doesn't get overawed by the occassion. He's only young, but he looks a confident kid. He should be right.

    If he can get a ko win on this card....augers very well for his future.

    Great opportunity for Zappa.

    this is a welcome relief from the bumdine/green rubbish topics.

    zappa can impress some important people with a strong performance. could be some big paydays around the corner.

    vic as always will be great to see.
