Ponsaklak Wongjongkam/Edgar Sosa & Brian Viloria/Segura on the horizon

[FinitoElDinamita]

Pong and Sosa will fight in the fall after their tuneup bouts and Viloria is expected to get a shot at Segura if he gets by Miranda..

Who do you guys like in these matchups??

Wow! How great would THAT be!

I know Wonjonkam fights a lot of mediocrity, but he seems to be able to summon what he needs when he needs it. I'm not sure what Sosa's edge is that lets him win.

On the other, Viloria is from Maui and a really good kid. But he really strays when he is successful. I think Segura is a killer.

Yea, Wong wasted lot of years beating up on part time construction workers,but, his victory over Kameda in Japan was very impressive, no? I agree though.. I like Sosa alot but he doesn't have many advantages over Wong..

Viloria gets hot and cold but if he's in form, he has a good chance here. Most people thought he'd get blown out by Ulisis Solis but he was able to come through. If he goes into this segura bout with that same mental focus, he can possibly outbox him to a UD. Dont get me wrong, I know Segura is a killer but he's also very limited and if there's somebody out there who can make Viloria look good, it's Segura...

Nice post. The big question is will Brian train properly and even if he does? How many times can he go to the well when he's let himself go so often.

Right back at ya ^^.. Im glad to see another fan of the these lower weight divisions.. Based on my experience in boxing, it's usually the TRUE Boxing fans who are able to appreciate these smaller fighters.

If Viloria is smart, he should realize that this is his last shot on the big stage so he better get up for this or else he's toast.. But considering the fact that there have been so many upsets this year, including victor ortiz of all people, im sure Viloria is inspired..

But first thing is first and he better worry about Miranda because that's no cakewake.. Im sure we'll be able to make a better assessment after this fight..

Assessment? Is that Saddo's for Wild-assed-guess?

Like a lot of guys i suspect, two things made mereally focus on the little dudes. First was Carbajal and Chuiqita rivalry. The other was working out one day in like 1990-91 watching a PPV undercard and really not paying attention. Then in between sets I watched this little guy just do things pefectly for about 90 seconds and said out loud "Who the eff is THAT?" It was Finito.
