This should make for an interesting ESPN matchup. I know El Gamo was sucking on Julio's ballbags a while ago but never really rated him myself.
This fight should catipault the winner right into the limelight but the loser won't have much place else to go after this so a good and important crossroads fight for both.
Now this looks like a great espn matchup....July is gonna be great for us boxing fans !!
This will be a great match, i think Joel Julio will win with early K.O
K9 gets put to sleep.
I actually think he's got a good chance of causing an upset in this one. Julio has looked pretty one dimensional of late and doesn't seem to be able to adapt to difficult circumstances in the ring.Quote:

It will be an ugly fight and that may well favour Bundrage.
He may not get the decision but I have a feeling this one is going to the cards.
Yeah, I saw that Julio was fighting in Hollywood, is this at the Avalon? Ill go check it out if it is. Im pullin for K-9 in this one thats my dawg. Should be a great scrap. It is going to be on ESPN I saw him scheduled with a TBA opponent.
I checked into it. Its going to be at the Kodak Theater.
I presume it's going to be on Wednesday or Friday night fights right?Quote:

Julio showed great improvement in his last fight, I see a mid rounds stoppage for him here.
He had an opponent backing up the whole fight taking combinations on the ropes and shaking his head. I don't think he was tested enough to see if he's improved.Quote:

Ya gotta love it when fights like this get made outta the blue. This is a great match for both guys. Bundrage is a real good guy, and he's got heart, just gets tired late, I think possibly because he's so musclebound, and he loads up on his punches a lot. Likes to clinch too. Long as he doesn't get over anxious like he did in his crazy loss to Powell a few years back, and stays on the inside, he's got a real shot at outworkin Julio and beatin him, maybe even stoppin him. Julio hits fuckin HARD though, so he could just as easy blast K-9 outta there early. Gonna be a good fight. 8)
One thing I notice in Julio's last fight was that he actually jabbed. His previous fight he didnt use it hardly enough. This last one he was using the jab to get in, and it obviously improved. It sucks when you like both fighters in a fight. K-9 will pull it off, he's improving alot too, he looked good against Colin McNeil on the contender.
WOW, espn.
