    **** Calzaghe vs Jones, and Hatton vs Malignaggi on this card as well. Then we're talking the best card ever!! Seriously though, why not? Boxing is starting to come back to life again, and this would be great to complete the process of making it a massive sport worldwide again.

      This fight doesn't even justify PPV status and I think it would be a terrible move.

      It does have World Championship Boxing on HBO all over it though.
      I think it's a good card, but I hear Campbell's going to fight Amir Kahn....

      ...wonder how much money they're talking about

        Mayorga was restrained and had some very good moments beating Fernando Vargas...

          Would love to see khan in that fight, but 2 things worry me.

          1. Khan is clearly good, but there is something about him which worries me somehow. I can't put my finger on it, but I just see the bubble bursting and it all come crashing down. Maybe it's a subliminal Prince Naseem complex?!?)

          2. I can't see Warren getting off his milking stool so soon.

            I say Mayorga brings more money to the table than Judah. He's well known, and he's already been in there with with the top 3 latino names in those weight classes, Oscar, Tito & Fernando. He's gonna bring the latino market, that's a given, and it should be a pretty exciting fight for as long as it lasts. Hope he can make it back down to 147, he was murderous at that weight class (Mayorga). Unfortunately, age is creeping up on both fighters, but at least they're making it happen. This is part of the completing the circle with all the best fighters in the 147lbs and 154lbs division of the last 10 years. They've all fought each other, lets add this one to the list. Praise em for making it happen. There have been some great ones (maybe not always great fights, but great matchups): Oscar vs Mosley, Mayorga, Tito, Fernando, Pernell, Quartey; Mosley vs Wright, Fernando, Oscar, Cotto, Forrest; Tito vs Fernando, Oscar, Mayorga, Wright, Pernell. The list goes on and on. This was truly a great (golden) era. We'll look back upon it one day. Too bad Mayweather won't be included.

                Now, I'll pay money to see those fights. I'd ALMOST buy either alone. Together, I'm liking the sound of that.

                  Mosley and Mayorga are superstars, I can't see what people whine about "Oh no, PPV.." Yeah, PPV, it's ****ing Mosley and Mayorga!

                    I find it strange that they get two world class fights, for the price of one, and people act as if it's the biggest rip off since Rahman/Maskaev II. Not only are they four legit fighters, but they all have pleasing styles in one way or another. What more do people want?

                      PPV worthy. No doubt

                      Juan Manuel Marquez vs. Nate Campbell should be the headliner. If Baldomir beat Judah, Mosley would have a TKO before 8 rounds. Mosley should go after a real challenge. If he is going to wait it out until October why not fight the winner of the Williams vs. Quintana fight. He wins that fight while the world would watch the Cotto vs DLH fight I would love to see Mosley vs Mayweather finally. If Cotto and Mayweather win out.
