Sources have confirmed to FightHype that former welterweight and jr. middleweight world champion Ricardo Mayorga will face former jr. middleweight champion Kassim Ouma some time in February. While an official date, venue, and network have yet to be determined, the fight is expected to take place, possibly at a catchweight.
Both fighters were last seen in the ring in 2011. Mayorga was knocked out by Miguel Cotto in his last outing in Las Vegas, while Ouma suffered the same fate at the hands of current middleweight titlist Gennady Golovkin in Panama. Both men will be looking to make a return to the ring in hopes of making one last world championship run.
Stay tuned as more details become available.
Not sure if true, but I read a while back that Ouma suffered a brain bleed from the Golovkin fight.
They were afraid he might have. So he was rushed to the hospital right after the fight just in case. It's not clear whether he actually did though.

hopefully we get some good footage from these press conferences. mayorga should have stayed active. fight a couple bums or something after the mosley and cotto losses. should be a decent fight to watch.
LOL, they might had taken it and Arum would had sold it like he would had been the most dangerous foe to date
I was already envisioning the trash talk from mayorga
I remember I was rooting for mayoral in that fight to see if team pac would have had the odacity to make a fight with mayorga

This is indeed true. He still went to war with Cotto though.

Mayorga Kirkland is a good fight. I'd favor 60/40 Mayroga.
We gotta take into consideration Mayorga went like and death with an undefeated rejuvenatedsecond primed Cotto and tbh Kirkland just isn't that good
:haha:
I'd favor Mayorga too.
