Well this fight is coming up in about an hour. I know everyone expects a relatively easy night against the decidedly outclassed, but very durable Ornelas. It looks like it's 2 hours so hopefully they show some of the undercard. Pretty sure They will show all 2 minutes of Jones/Green as these fights were to be a set up for the rematch. Who knows, in stranger aeon's do we see Green/Ornelas?
Links posted you know where, for anyone that wants them
I think Hopkins may actually show some ring rust. Ornelas if nothing else will be steady pressure
Here we go announcers talking about the question of the future of Hopkins after RJJ losing. Undercard about to start Danny Garcia vs. Enrique Colin Light welter prospects. WBC youth Light Welter title on the line, not sure why a 27 year old is fighting for a youth title. Steve Smoger is the ref so Kumate time.
Colin 23-4-3 (19 KOs) from Mexico 139 lbs.
Garcia 14-0 (9 KOs) from Philly 140 lbs.

So glad that they have done away with the blaring ringside DJ playing 24/7........Oh...and no Amy Hayes :vanish: ?
Wilson impressed the hell out of me against Huerta in his last fight, I've been waiting to see him again since then. He is wild, fast and hair trigger reactions.

Who the funk is this ring announcer?
Bernard Hopkins 49-5-1 (32 KOs) 175 lbs
Enrique Ornelas 29-5-1 (19 KOs) 173.5 lbs
No title, but it is 12 rounds.
Enrique Ornelas enters the ring to some romantica, classy.
Hopkins get a list of his career archives for his introduction, mixed cheers and boos, more cheers as he enters. No ring walk music, just a red robe with a black X on it.
David Caridine reincarnate announcing.
He does look a little bit like Jack Palance. :)
HaHaHa!!! That's exactly what Danny said to me!!Quote:

Hopkins is an ugly, ugly fighter. You can't teach an old dog new tricks. He is edging this, but not looking particularly good. He would get whipped by someone like Dawson on this showing so far.
