Yes, i agree! put Pacquiao in! :cool:

update on joan guzman-campbell fight:

One key ingredient is lacking ,though, and it is a proper venue. It’s a hot match on paper but, as the late, great boxing visionary Big Al Braverman used to say, “ did you ever see two piece of paper climb up in the ring and fight?”
