pretty excited about this weekend's fights. looking forward to seeing josesito lopez fight marvin cordova jr.. should be a good scrap and hoping lopez wins the fight.

chris arreola is a friggn' waste!!! i WAS a fan of his until he fought adamek then i rooted for adamek because he is a true warrior. arreola is too lazy i believe, to ever become more than a fringe contender. his next loss will put him at journeyman, unless he gets serious about training for his fights. sad because i believe he could someday be a very good boxer at the highest level if he would only train seriously.

other fights i'm looking forward to are:

miguel vazquez vs. ji hoon kim. i'll be rooting for vazquez but i think kim takes this one. this guy (kim) is absolutely relentless and i don't think vazquez will be able to slow him down. kim by KO.

chad dawson vs. jean pascal. now this is a great fight! gotta go with the taller, more technical dawson but it wouldn't surprise me if pascal wins. he's a really good up and comer. dawson by SD.

miguel angel garcia vs. cornelius lock. this will be garcia's toughest opponent in his young career. if he can pass this test with flying colors he could possible fight for a title late in the year. but lock is no joke himself. he is a very dangerous puncher who could possible KO the young garcia. garcia will be slightly favored to win but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if lock pulled off the upset.

donnie nietes vs. mario rodriguez. a classic philippines vs. mexico showdown. i think nietes is a very underrated champion. the guy is good but doesn't get very much attention. what a pity! but why oh why is he fighting a 10-5 fighting in rodriguez? this is a step down in competiton for nietes as i believe he should win by wide UD or KO. i think there are much better fighters than rodriquez. a nietes raul garcia scrap would have been interesting and definitely more exciting!
