Berto-Soto Karass, Thurman-Chaves, Russell Tripleheader - Boxing News
Not a bad card, but I think that it'd be better if Berto & Thurman were fighting. I think maybe they're doing this to set up a future fight between them.
Thurman fights Diego Chaves who is Interim WBA Welterweight Champion. Chaves was close to getting the Malignaggi fight before Broner stepped up. I assume they're giving Berto the Soto-Karass fight as he's been inactive and it'll give him an opportunity to shake off the rust. Gary Russell Jr.'s opponent has yet to be announced.

 On paper Berto and Soto Karass isn't a bad clash, and I wouldn't be so quick to count out Karass as Berto was literally beaten up and down in mauling fashion last time out.
