That's the same night as Calzaghe-Kessler. I know the time difference and all, but is HBO really gonna have one free card and one ppv card the same night?

Crazy.

The crazy thing is that Marquez-Juarez would be the PPV... Why the hell is anyone going to pay to see it, when Kessler vs Calzaghe is on regular HBO This must be a mistake?

Nope, Showtime has picked up Marquez-Juarez and will air it for free.

Hey it's great news for us fans...watch one dvr the other, but i agree what a horrible night to have a another bout. Mora says he was gonna steal the show.....hillarious !!!

Haha did he really say that Mar?. Sergio Mora is the biggest joke I have ever seen.

Yea towards the end of the article...this delay was horrible for mora especially considering what most think of him after ducking taylor for a world title shot. I'm looking forward to seeing him fight a non contender, but i don't give him a very good chance against kassim.

Mora's getting destroyed..SOON. And i for one am looking forward to it

Mora will give Ouma a tough time.

Yea I definetly think it will be a competitive fight.. Mora is not a bum, he not great but Ouma hasn't had any business at middleweight so far... Both guy's are light hitters, I think Mora might actually have the better skills though.. Ouma's strength has been his workrate and output, but he hasn't shown it for a good while. Should be a close decision either way if you ask me.

I don't think Mora is all that he got a gift decision vs Manfredo in the rematch was dropped by a 15-3 fighter and went 10 rounds with Regan winning by ud when even journeyman Donny McCary stopped Regan in the 1st round Mora hasn't done really anything since coming out of the contender.

Totally agree. He's no bum and I've never been that impressed with Ouma to be honest.

I'm by no means a Mora fan but Ouma is similiar in that they're both offensive fighters whose punch output have carried them to this level. I think the two 'B' listers are going to be engaged in an offensive tv friendly fight that Ouma should cary the last 3 rounds. Remember, even Marco Antonio Rubio was able to land a knock down before Ouma's activity made the difference. This should shape up to a suprisingly interesting matchup that Ouma emerges from that nobody wants to fight.

Now it looks like Ouma caught a break as he was reported to have been in a motorcycle accident so if Sergio beats him, Ouma will come up with some Zab Judah excuse.
Mora would have beat Ouma anyway but it would have been a good close fight. Fast paced and entertaining.
