Well, well, well here we are again. This time Super Feathers comin at you from the Don Haskins center in El Paso Texas. The main event featuring Antonio Escalante 20-2 (13 KOs) who has made his presence known by absolutely crushing Mike Oliver (whom I consider to have some of the quickest hands in boxing(albeit with some of the worst footwork) ) and Gary Stark Jr. each in 3 rounds with multiple knockdowns, most likely the betting favorite tonight the 24 year old has shown amazing improvement over the last few years.

His opponent Cornelius Lock 18-3-1 (11 KOs) is coming in after a war of attrition against Roger "Speedy" Gonzalez, where he gutted out a 10th round stoppage in a fight going into that round could have gone either way. The question of ring rust has to be brought up as he hasn't been in the ring in over a year. Lock has the immense boxing knowledge of Roger Mayweather in his corner, which he will most definately need to employ in this fight.

The undercard looks pretty weak a showcase fight for Juan Carlos Velasquez 9-0 (5 KOs) and his twin brother Carlos Ivan Velazquez 10-0 (9 KOs)(both with Golden Boy Promotions)

Busy day of watching fights for me, already watched the Gatti-Ward trilogy, JML-Penalosa and Arreola-Walker. Before fnf is Ali-Blin on ESPN it's been a good day so far.

Just enough time for Berto/Collazo before the Ali showcase.

[KananKrus]

Yeah, Ali vs Jurgen Blin in Switzerland. I have not seen this yet, serendipitous indeed! (opportune time to use that word, LOL)

The only 2 sports I watch


I wish this match was over though; not sure why thy are showing Isner and Odesnik on ESPN; they are prospects and rather boring. Lead up to the USO though; so expect it for several weeks.

Yes I'm about ready to dope up myself. Listening to Cliff Drysdale smack his lips makes my skin crawl. I put some Rice Crispies in my belly button and poured some milk in just to drown out the sound of his dentures flopping around.

[killersheep]

WAR ISNER!!

he's closer to a win that's why I'm rooting for him.

[leftylee]

May stay up for this. I'm wide awake.

Should be starting here in about 10 minutes. The prospects they are showing on the undercards are pretty good, but they're fighting bums.
I really think the main event will be an entertaining one.

[KananKrus]

They scrapped the Ali fight altogether for this 6'9" tennis kid. Dont know now when I will be able to catch that fight. On to FNF now... hopefully!

[killersheep]

That's a long time from now, B-Hop is realistically looking to fight in April of next year.
