Maurice Hooker-Alex Saucedo - Friday night

[Spicoli]

For whatever reason this one is buried tonight with a single bout card slated to start at 11pm with an NBA game proceeding it. If it starts on time I'll be surprised. Doesn't Hearn promote Hooker?

Should be a fun fight though and interested to see which way Hooker goes as a 'champion'. Saucedos last fight was a bloodbath with both fighters rocked and he really did great with self promotion and a massive fight hungry massive fan turn out in of all places Oklahoma City. Great energy!

This is an Arum show (TopRank), he won the purse bids from Hearn (Matchroom), hence Saucedo gets hometown advantage.

Thanks bud wasn't sure, Arum is mucking it up. Good news is Bucks lead the Bulls 108-94 with 5 min to go. Fight should start on time .

Very impressive looking turn out for Oklahoma fight fans. Saucedo really turning into hooks in first and Hooker reacts like he felt them.
