[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Middlewieght world champion Kelly Pavlik of the United States has been approved to fight number one-ranked challenger Marco Antonio Rubio of Mexico. Pavlik, however, has not payed the sanction fees for his last two fights. If the fees are not payed within 15 days, he will be stripped of the title.

I wonder why he has'nt paid the fees?

[Silencers]

Damn, I wanted Bradley vs the winner of Torres-Holt 3 to be a unification fight.

Interesting to see Gamboa's next fight could be for an interim title.

[The Hammer]

Looks like Vitali will fight Gomez early in the new year. Too bad they wouldn't let him have a voluntary defense or two.

Why are they saying that Bradley vs. the winner of Holt-Torres can't be for both the WBO and the WBC titles? They seem to be opposed to what every fan wants, namely unification.

Pavlik

Didn't Kelly get 3 or 4 million for the Hopkins bout? He'll pay the fees.

just cause wbc mandates it doesnt mean berto will man up. cosme rivera dropped berto as soon as he turned soutpaw. imagine what an elite, slickster like Lou will do to Berto. Berto knows. I wouldn't be surprised if he vacated in order to move to 140 or cash out against Cotto like he's been saying...

WAR COLLAZO!!!

Yes - I can't wait 'til Vasquez - Marquez IV!

[egreezy]

Good news for Forrest and Bradley fans. Everyone thought he was not going to fight Martinez. And Bradley is looking for his 2nd big fight early.

[The_Bull]

The winner of the Branco-Diaconu fight will fight none other than Glen Johnson. Nice.
