Unbeaten Vanes Martirosyanon will be on Telefura against undefeated Michael Medina tonight should be a good one! This kid is only 22 and has a gold medal. Kid Diamond is fighting as well.
I'd love to have watched this, B, but can't get that cable station where I live. I'd watched Vanes train when he was still at Wild Card -- terrific technician, very well schooled, pin-point double jab and combination puncher, (though not a one-punch KO artist) and spring in his legs that only a 22-year-old can have, plus the ring generalship of a veteran, and always in top shape. Outta the ring, one of the nicest, most polite kids I've met. Spend time with him, you'd have to be a fan.
How often do you go to Wild Card? I've read a few of your stories from the gym, so it seems like you've been a fair few times. I love reading about the people down there :good
This should be a good fight and yes Vanes is a great prospect, he didn't win any medals at the Olympics though, he does hold a win over Andre Berto in the trials.
Ah, right. Have you ever had a chance to speak to Pacquiao? I imagine a lot of the time he's done there now, you can't just go to one side and have a word. He seems like a nice person though. As does Roach.
Damn, I hate when I miss fights! Well, given that the broadcast was apparently in Spanish and I wouldn't have understood a word, I can't cry too much.
