Haven't heard anyone talk about this one, but it is definately two guys that are on the cusp of being contenders. I think this is a very important heavyweight fight, although the low volume of both guys could end up being a stinker.

The bigger fights on the card are JuanMa vs. Rogers Mtagwa (whom you may remember for his FOTY candidate battle against Tomas Villa last year) - should be a very entertaining fight while it lasts both guys are high volume.

Yuriorkis Gamboa is taking on Whyber Garcia (who has been stopped early and often), I don't expect this to be competitive at all. Garcia has problems when his opponents have power.

Vanes Martirosyan is in against workhorse Pawel Wolak, Martirosyan will really need to bring his "A" game and be the boxer if he expects to pull this out, if he gets to lax Wolak will press him to the canvas.

All in all it sounds like a decent night of boxing. 3 of the 4 big fights should be competitive. This is an HBO PPV event, and one that I will pay for. There are some pretty good prospects taking the stage early in Carlos Negron and Jorge Diaz, hopefully yahoo will broadcast the undercard as they've been doing lately.

Thoughts?

oh yeah this isn't until October
