Velez did not pull out. He was given step-aside money to let Mares step-in. Fake an injury, save a loss on your record and earn bucks without punching. What more can go wrong? :hey:hey:hey:hey:hey
Wow so much for Velez dedicating a victory to Gomez and Puerto Rico while beating C level fighter Sal Sanchez II. How come he won't face PDL or Mikey Garcia? What a **** little *****. When he beats a real Mexican fighter THEN he can dedicate that win Wilfredo. Not by beating the legendary Sal Sanchez's journeyman nephew. Pffft.
ankle strain, apparently... The doc note on the seen says "immobilized for 2 weeks, may not be able to box for 4-6 weeks."
Ankle. Sorry I originally thought it was a broken finger when I first read the story and then the mods must have changed my post. It's past my bedtime.
DPDL Vs. Mares coming May 4th. (Mark it down) Bummed about this cancelation, But it will end up being a gift in disquise for Velez. (De Leon was going to beat down the youngster, IMO)
