    Opportunity Knocks for Mike Mollo on Nov. 7 in China

    The night was filled with golden opportunities back on May 6th, 2006. On the pay-per-view card presented by HBO, future stars such as Joan Guzman, Kassim Ouma, and Jose Rivera were given the chance to showcase their skills and talents in the ring. In the main event, the "Golden Boy" Oscar De La Hoya would challenge Ricardo Mayorga for the WBC jr. middleweight championship. [details]

    Mike Mollo being given another chance, and some old heavyweights being recycled in China by Don King. King should have matched Mollo against smaller opponents than McCline and Golota.

      Yeah, and he acquitted himself rather well in the Golota fight, which was an absolute ball-tearer... I don't think there's been a better heavyweight fight anywhere in 2008. Golota's eye was a gruesome sight after that slugfest. I was a fan of Merciless Mike from that night on.

        Future stars?! More like a future flop, a future has-been, and a never-was.
