    Default Vergil Ortiz Jr v Maurice Hooker 3/20

    Looks like they'll tee it up on March 20th in Texas over on Dazn. When we think next era welterweights and the needed turn over at 147 there are two guys who pop in my head right off..Ortiz Jr and Jaron Ennis. Really a good opportunity for the young gun against Hooker here. Hooker is respectable solid and confident but making his first go at full 147 and will quickly find himself under severe pressure just 1 round of a fight removed from the brutal Ramirez tko war and loss. Biggest test for Vergil for sure but his inside body work causes nightmares. I have a feeling this is the beginning of a solid breakout run for him. With the tiring PBC 147 roulette wheel and Spence and Crawford finding it easier though less lucrative to fight on social media, 147 needs to be stirred up!

    Was hoping a decent undercard would shape up but not so much. Still though looking forward to one of the best prospects in the sport. Just read that Ennis has signed to fight Lipinets, another tough test for new class of 147.

    Have to figure that is much harder for matchmakers, managers and promoters to put together decent cards from a shallower pool of active fighters. Especially on events with little or no fans.

    Not that it was ever a consistent habit for promoters prepandemic either.

    I think it may be a bit of Dazn doing the quantity over quality thing a bit too. Yeh we're in a transition but many of the State side cards are similar. They also seem to over simplify the local fan demographic. Last week with the Estrada v Chocolatito rematch. Exact same State, Texas, one of the few with large fan compacity now and other than the main events the other matches are really patchwork. They could have done something nuts like combine known fighters maybe and not put that crowd to sleep until the main kicked off. Hey I don't mind female boxing at all but now we get another as co main..and it's a 105 lb strawweight too .

    Oscar De La Hoya..."yeh I'm about 175 if fans want to see me come back then let's fight the very best" .

    In the opener cruiserweight Tristan Kalkreuth blows out Dustin Long at 1:18 of the first who was taken out on a stretcher. Next is Marcelino Nicolas Lopez 36-2-1 out of Argentina v Jairo Lopez 25-11-4. Nicolas Lopez has taken this on one weeks notice and looks like he is out of the Frank Bruno physique fan club.

    Jairo 'don't call me Gyro' did well to rally back after getting dropped in 2nd.

    Down again in 3rd. Nino Lopez hits him in the back of the head down there. They can stop this one he's reacting badly.

    Seneisa Estrada should definitely be in stiffer test here than her last that ended in just 7 seconds over that substitute teacher or something.

    I'm split. Watch these two fine wispy young ladies or the two bomb throwing fat heavyweights now on espn UFC

    Much better than last week. The challenger is much prettier. The champion is going to be a right chubster when she stops boxing. Still can't take this shit seriously.

    Estrada thinks she's fooking prime James Toney posturing up counters like that. Nice KD. A BLT sammich better though.
