    154 Jarrett Hurd fighting on the Danny Garcia card! Think this guy is one to watch. Original opponent had to pull out so now it's Jo Jo Dan

    Jesus Cuellar (28-1, 21 KOs) will defend his secondary belt against former three-division world titleholder Abner Mares (29-2-1, 15 KOs) six months after it was postponed due to Mares’ inability to get a boxing license in New York because of a failed eye exam.... I root for Abner Mares because he's always willing to risk all in order to land his own best punches and he signed a boxing glove for my son... But, I worry for Abner because Mares had surgery for a detached retina in 2008 and think Cuellar will be ruthless and try to target the old injury... Also the co-feature will pit junior middleweight world titleholder Jermall Charlo (24-0, 18 KOs), of Houston, against mandatory challenger Julian "J Rock" Williams (22-0-1, 14 KOs), of Philadelphia, and figures to be as competitive as the main event.... The world title doubleheader will be on Dec. 10, 2016 at the Galen Center on the USC campus....

    No big fights on tonight?

    Vasquez JR and Juanma are fighting tonight, does that count? I'll probably try and watch just for the train wreck factor, I think(hope) Vasquez isn't as dangerous as the last few guys to pole axe Juanma, but it's definitely a farce of a matchup. Lopez should not be fighting and you have to wonder if he has anyone looking out for him.

    Is it crazy/annoying to anyone else that PPV fights today wouldn't have even made HBO/Showtime prior to 2000? Think about it: Barrera vs Morales, Barrera vs Hamed, Barrera vs Pac, Hagler vs Hearns, Oscar vs Mosely...etc., were available on cable networks. Manny vs Vargas?!?!? Garcia vs Thurman?!?!? Canelo vs any bum he decides to extend his charade against next?!?!? THOSE are PPV worthy fights today? What a joke.

    That is seriously bad for boxing when this crap is ppv. People should stop buying these cards and that will tell the promoters and tv companies that they can not keep taking the piss out of fans.

    Think all of those were ppv also or close circuit with Hagler-Hearns. Huge difference compared to Canelo's traveling farce is most if not all were respected as competitive fights prior to the opening bell. They've just turned it into a feeding troff.
