A lot of young stars fighting this weekend
Juan Manuel Lopez fighting Olivier Lonthchi on a Top Rank PPV, Victor Ortiz fighting Marcos Rene Maidana on HBO and Jorge Linares fighting Josafat Perez on telemundo or telefutura or whatever.
there's a potential for three blowouts (Linares probably should get his guy out with ease) but its still good to see all three guys on one weekend.
For some reason I see this Lontchi guy going the distance (supposed to be a mover and he might stink it out a bit)but a JML win, Ortiz KO's Maidana in the best fight of the weekend, and Linares by stoppage too.
Oh, and now that I think about it Daniel Jacobs is fighting in the main event of Friday Night Fights so I guess you can include him too.
Re: A lot of young stars fighting this weekend
actually, forget that, JuanMa by stoppage
Re: A lot of young stars fighting this weekend
All of them win by KO except Ortiz who I think comfortably beats Maidana on points
Re: A lot of young stars fighting this weekend
Ortiz/Maidana will be the fight of the weekend. Maidana is a very real threat, who should still be undefeated.
Re: A lot of young stars fighting this weekend
I'm watching Linares last fight on youtube right now. Man, there aren't many people that throw combos like him. Especially when he starts throwing body combos.
But he's pretty hittable. Just moving straight back is too much a part of his defense.
A phenomenal offensive fighter though. Hopefully he clears up some defensive issues or has a good chin.
Re: A lot of young stars fighting this weekend
I will be in Atlantic City for Juanma's fight. Originally this fight card was a great one, but due to injuries, most of the good fights have been postponed. Anyway, I bought tickets just to see Lopez, so I guess it doesn't matter. I would really love to see Lopez's next three fights after this one against Lontchi be in the following order: Vazquez, Caballero, Gamboa.

Linares is one of my favorite fighters at the moment. His absolute destruction of Larios was something to marvel at. Like you have already said his combinations are incredible. I posted up some videos a bit back of him sparring and some of his training, pretty cool stuff. I think he will be a p4p contender
Re: A lot of young stars fighting this weekend
FNF is packing them in too with Jacobs, Lara, Wilder and Hylon Williams Jr.

Linares one of my faves; agreed with your analysis of him. Hope I an watch this fight against Perez.
Good stuff this weekend.

I think he's going to fight in mid-July, to be honest I won't be paying much attention to him for a while, can't see him fighting any live bodies in the near future.
