It looks like James Kirkland will fight Ricardo Cortes who was last KO'd in 1 round by Alfredo Angulo.
Does this mean Alfredo Angulo will fight Eromose Albert who was last KO'd in 1 round by James Kirkland.

It looks like the Matthysse family packs a punch. You've seen Walter Dario Matthyse whos 26-4 with 25 kos.
Now on the loose is Lucas Martin Matthysse who fights as a Light Welter and is 22-0 with 21 kos.
Now let's see about the chin...

It looks like Dimitriy Salita will finally step it up...
Given the Andreas Kotelnik beats Norio Kimura in his next fight.
I remember reading a lot about Salita years back and HBO was showcasing him then he just fell off it. Don't think highly of Salita but interested in seeing him finally step up.

Last night I was watching Cotto vs. Paulie card and I had completely forgotten about Tommy Zbikowski the then Notre Dame safety who made his pro debut on the undercard.
I checked up on him and started wondering what happened with him.
According to Wikipedia which isn't always 100% accurate he fought again but no result of the fight is listed and BoxRec does not have the second fight listed.
Anyone know anything on this?
Now that he's a Raven and a pro-football player guess we wont see him anytime soon again as that guarantees him a more secure future.
Would have really liked to see more of him in the ring.

As if the JMM-Casamayor fight alone isn't intrigueing on it's own the undercard is full of interesting settings...
Julio C. "Baby Face" Garcia whos just 21 years old and holds a record of 41-3 with 35 kos looks to redeem himself after the horrible showing he last had on ESPN. Garcia will fight none other then Luis R. "Yory Boy" Campas.
Indonesian sensation Daud "Cino" Yordan is also on the card and looks to make his US debut a sensational one. Daud comes from a boxing family and has head high praise thus far. One things for sure he's already got a step on Chris John, cause Daud is willing to fight out here.
The "Twin Dream" will also be on the card. These twin brothers from Puerto Rico will both look to continue their undefeated records. You guys might have seen them on ESPN & Solo Boxeo as they have both fought there. Carlos Ivan Velasques and Juan Carlos Velasquez.
If that wasn't enough "The Golden Child" Daniel Jacobs will also be on there doing his thing. I like what I've seen but it's too early to make a judgement on him. As I've said plenty of times I don't jump up and hype fighters until they've hit at least 20 fights depending on opposition.

Nelson Linares, whos Jorge Linares younger brother will fight on the Nate Campbell vs. Joan Guzman undercard. He doesn't look as well polished as his brother but can still fight.
Jorge Arce will fight Rafael Concepcion whos coming off a big upset over heavily favorite AJ Banal (For those who missed the derailing of Banal here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBuKkvakNOo listen for Concepcion yelling "Filipinas I looooove you"Talk about respect ) The Arce-Concepcion fight IMO has the makings of fight that will be full of fireworks and lot's of action.

It looks like Steven Luevano will defend his WBO title vs. Billy Dib on the undercard of B-Hop vs. Pavlik.
"The Dragon" Chris John will fight Hiroyuki Enoki on Oct. 24th in Japan. If my prediction from last year is right Enoki will beat John.
Jose Amaro Guzman, younger brother of Joan Guzman is slated to make his US debut in Oct.
Cintron vs. N'dou
Taylor vs. Lacy
and the return of Chazz Witherspoon have landed on HBO for Nov. 15th.
