I'm watching Republica Deportiva (Sports show on Univision) which has been reporting on boxing more and more now. Here are some of the things they have covered so far on this show...
Ricardo Mayorga's withdrawal from the Angulo fight.
One of the hosts, forgot his name, didn't believe Mayorga had a good enough reason to pull out basically saying without saying that Mayorga chickened out
Martinez's win that wasn't a win
They discussed this fight and its confusion. They felt Martinez should have won the fight and also felt that Cintron was being protected. They found it odd that the ref's original decision was overturned to keep Kermit fighting coupled with the draw that keeps an "L" off of Kermit's record.
Miguel Cotto on Jennings & Margarito-Gate
They interviewed Cotto (from his car) and he discussed his upcoming bout with Jennings. Said he didn't know much about Jennings, but that is something they are accustomed to and in true Cotto programming fashion, he stated they have been working hard and will be well prepared for the fight.
In regards to Margarito, he stated that no one will know for sure if Margo used illegal wraps against him, but regardless, it was Margo's night and doesn't take anything away from him. When asked about wanted to avenge his loss, Cotto stated that when Margarito has completed his suspension, he would like to avenge his loss.
Up next, they will be interviewing Yuriourkis Gamboa. There's been a lot of Boxing on this particular episode which is kind of surprising.
