HBO Boxing PPV Headliner: Barrera vs. Peden

Don’t Sleep on This fight!

For those of you who are saying that this Saturday night’s HBO pay-per-view fight between Mexico’s WBC 130lb Champion Marco Antonio Barrera and his IBF counterpart, Australia’s Robbie “Bomber” Peden, is just not a quality matchup, then you are just not a true boxing fan. It’s time to wake up, slap your face several times with a hammer and realize the facts. The “Bomber” is an exciting, high output, tough as nails brawler looking for a war on the inside. There is no doubt in my mind that Robbie will come out with all guns blazing, seeking to make his mark on the sport and “prove that he belongs” as he told me during our interview on this site’s TKO Boxing Show. That desire to prove his worth as a fighter will carry him through hell and back twice, and he is going to need it as “hell” will be across from him this Saturday in the form of Marco Antonio Barrera. So do yourself and our beloved sport a favor by tuning in to what should be a great fight on Saturday night.
