    Over on the scene.

    With the Walters fight falling through, this is looking likely.
    Uchiyama is willing to come to America.

    Love to see it

    Uchyiama is there for the taking, Walters would def take him out and Fortuna although not as good as the Axe Man might still be good enough to upset the Japanese.

    That was one year ago, hes not getting younger and he didnt look very good against the scrub they put him with at the end of last year although he still did the job but against that quality of opponent who wouldnt.

    Walters would murder him.:yep:deal

    The Sosa fight was a disgrace Sosa won at most two rounds that was an horrible robbery.

    But you think every fighter at 130 and their mother would beat walters, you probably still butthurt cause you picked Marriaga and Sosa to beat him and they didnt :yep

    Yeah but here's the really really really huge catch ....It's Uchiyama:deal

    And he didn't "murder" Sosa a previously KO'd Opponent did he?

    They both pushed him harder than anyone one at up to that point. Which was what my choosing of Marriaga and Sosa illustrated, sometimes I go with guys I know will expose their opponent to a certain extent but not necessarily win to prove a point.

    Thats right its Uchiyama its not Henry Armstrong Or Julio Cesar Chavez.... The Axe Man would brutalize him.

    Hope it happens so maybe we can make some kind of bet :yep

    Fortuna because of his style isn't an easy fight for anyone.

    Its odd at times, but very effective

    You think Fortuna became a top 5(at least) fighter because...what? Hes ****?

    Jeez, take your head out of your ass

    No take your head out of Haymon's ass.

    He got to the Top 5 via a gift decision over Vasquez, that if you were scoring generously may have had as a draw. And it took everything he had to beat Rodriguez another match where the scorecards were also verrrrrry generous.

    Rodriguez went to be schooled with relative and quit at the hands of Jezreel Corrales.
