Ricardo Torres To fight in August (Cancelled)

[Puya]

Ricardo Torres (29-1)
Everyone loves a puncher, which is why Torres fits in the picture for so many interesting fights. If he takes care of Henry Bruseles on a DirecTV PPV card this month in Puerto Rico -- which he should -- line 'em up and make the fun fights.
Next: Aug. 26 vs. Bruseles.

Boy this Bruseles is becoming quite the fall guy for 140lb stars. He is capable though and may prove tuffer for Torres than most think. But I doubt it.

[El Gamo]

CC for the news,I hope Torres wins,he gave my boy Miguel a tough tought fight and with that power,he could be a forse.Needs to work on his stamina though!

[aangel]

question for bruseles, what do you want on your tombstone?

[KickboxAmob]

damnz i cant wait
love this torres
ko in the 6th

[TyBuff]

NICE!!!!! I have been wondering when Torres was going to fight again. He gave Cotto all he could handle in their fight and he took that fight on 2 weeks notice. Would love to see him prove what he can do when he has properly prepared.

[cockey cockney]

I was very impressed with Torres against Cotto, he looked very capable and i look forward to his next bout.

wHAT ABOUT tORRES/HATTON? How do you think that would turn out?

[Puya]

in a KO, but.............. who Wins? hum

But I tell you something Hatton wouln't fight this guy? Much to risk with a guy that Cotto beat

[Purist]

Evangalista already knows how to beat Bruseles, Cotto already went through the fire and Evangalista would train Bruseles for anything Torres. Torres can be outboxed Cotto just decided not to and it became a war

[El Gamo]

Torres can be outboxed,that's true but I don't see many@140 doing that.Guys like Hatton,Castilo,Urango etc!

That fight got cancelled according to PR newspaper (primerahora.com) article.

Bruseles espera pacientemente

El peso súper ligero Henry Bruseles estaba esperanzado de que fuera incluido en el evento "La Revancha" del próximo 9 de septiembre, sin embargo su participación no pudo ser concretada. "Tenía pendiente pelear contra el colombiano Ricardo Torres (29-1, 27 ko's) el 26 de agosto, precisamente en Caguas, pero no se llegó a un acuerdo. Estuvimos pendientes para ver si nos incluían en la de Nelson Dieppa con Hugo Cazars y tampoco fue posible", explicó Bruseles a PRIMERA HORA. El gurabeño viene de ganar una decisión unánime contra el mexicano César Bazán el pasado 29 de abril y está deseoso por regresar al ring. "Como no se pudo dar la pelea con Torres, bajé un poco la intensidad de los entrenamientos. Evangelista Cotto (mi entrenador) me dijo que estaría haciendo gestiones en Estados Unidos para ver si aparece una pelea", agregó Bruseles. Es la segunda oacsión que un pleito con Torres ha sido frustrado 2005.
