is he from Argentina or something like that? he was the favorite against Margarito in that fight. Bunema aint no joke! i havent seen him that many times but he seems pretty tough.

Yea he is from Argentina, his loss was to Margarito way back in 2000. The 154 pound division is kind of soft, but Martinez is for sure a top contender there. I am happy it will be on the HBO triple header should be a decent fight. Bunema deserves the oppurtunity also considering what he did to Karmazin.

alex bunema is hella funny anybody see him on the lones trinidad undercard. he one some meaningless belt and when buffer was anouncing him as winner he was screaming his name with him say im de champyon dats me im de champion. then he started screaming at his people to lift him up like if they didn't he was gonna knock them out. then when they did hbo faded away and started talking about the upcoming fight like he didn't matter. it was hella funny me and my boys still be saying lift me uuuupp!

This sounds like a really good fight, I'm picking Bunema by KO, he showed great power against Karmazin.
