HBO Salido v Cruz & Farmer v Ogawa

Triple header running up against with massive Lomenchenko and Rigo showdown tonight. Like to see Trevin Farmer grab a vacant title vs Kenichi Ogawa 22-1 (17) in what should be good action. Orlando Salido v Miguel Roman has makings of a shoot out. Francisco Vargas back from brutal losing effort looking for a win v Stephen Smith. Odd start time at 9:20 and sure to delay some as Loma v Rigo main event starts.

Ironic though..these days the HBO card playing 2nd fiddle and back burner to ESPN card ;D. Promotion and network landscape of the sport is certainly changing.

Will be watching this. 9.20 pt is actually the starry time is it. I think that is the weird HBO West Coast delay they give me... Don't ha e superchannel for lomachenko...
Farmer's cross eyes are worrying... My favourite Mongolian nicknamed midget lost already off air

Farmer off surgery and being shot a couple times so I'll give a pass for eye in back of his head. LOve his boxing. Didn't see Shafikov losing that.

For some reason picked Smith to beat Vargas here, no idea why really. Someone will cut up surely.

Smith wont last long fighting this fight

Good fight. Smith having to scrunch his toes

Smith wont stop holding now.

Trying to out Vargas Vargas better 4th. Ref and Harold Lederman no fan though ;D.

Salido and Roman main event as 10 rounder???. Ok then.

Ear hanging off. Fuck me.

Jebus fook..what happened to his ear. Hard luck way to lose getting your ear head butted off???.

Farmer really sharpshooting Ogawa over 4. Has a subtle confidence about him top notch boxer. Maybe Gervonta Davis will be tempted to come back and vie the title he quit on.

Ogawa finds some life in 7th and backs Farmer hard, good shot. Says his legs are tired. Like to see Farmer sit down on something behind that low posture jab with Ogawa straight on and high up.

Great corner strategy to Ogawa.."Don't worry about his punches don't worry about his punches" ;D.

Trainer of Farmer just made Teddy Atlas look like a choir boy and berates Farmer full between rounds in corner for giving 8th round away. Do think he has let Ogawa back in juuuust a bit and still really outclassing him.

If Ogawa had a little more pop, another hard-as-nails Japanese fella, they certainly don't do quit

HBO needs to really stop dropping the Whitaker references every minute of a round.

Sky keep going with Herol Graham
