Showtime revealed a number of upcoming fights:
Jermall Charlo vs Centeno Jr on Mar-3
Lara vs Hurd on Apr-7
Broner vs Figueroa Apr-21
Thurman returns May-19
Stevenson vs Jack is official for May-19
Santa Cruz vs Mares and Jermell Charlo on Jun-9
Spence is back Jun-16
Great news.
That's good.
Broner/ Figueroa, Santa Cruz/ Mares and Stevenson/ Jack should all be fun fights.
I'm alsi interested to see if Lara can hold of Hurd's assault as the later rounds progress.
Gotta be fair, there are some great matchups there.Quote:

Hurd is huge. Towering over Lara.
That March 31 is massive. Taylor, Brook, Wilder, Kovalev, Bivol, Charlo #1 and Dirrell..turning the ring into another episode of Jerry Springer..but very nice look at some top players. Like Hurd and thought him to be a 'next' but now no reason to think that Lara cannot do what I thought Charlo #2 would do to him based on styles, being honest. He's massive and tough but mentally aloof last few fights and can be painted coming in just to prove it.
hopefully its the booze talking and Lara gets ktfo though :-X. Stevenson v Jack deserves a salute. Love that match up and polar opposite mind sets. Jack sparks Piza'chit. Lets hear it for Showtime once and for all, hbo has been playing second fiddle.
I cant wait for alll of these.
Curious to see which Broner we get though. Seems like after Maidana he just hasn't been the same. He's been super trigger shy after getting put on his ass. Hope this fight rbings fireworks.
At his best i dont think Figueroa beats him.
I think this is a very winnable fight for Broner, I hope Figueroa give him a beat down tho.
I challenge Fenster on the Broner and Figueroa fight for his bogus belt that he only got for having an inside connection to Jose SulaimanQuote:

The fight hasn't been listed on the thread yet (probably won't be until about early March), everyone's current picks are listed in post #4, page one of the thread.Quote:

Hurd-Lara goes like the Trout fight.
Jack gets rid of Stevenson for good.
Broner should look good against Figueroa who he won't be able to miss and won't be giving away natural strength/power.
I'm thinking Stevenson sparks Jack, Lara decisions Hurd and Figueroa out hustles Broner.
I have been a fan of Figueroa for a long time and I’m not a fan of Broner whatsoever, so obviously I hope that Figueroa destroys him.
