PBC has some trash ass PPV cards so far this year.

Nice! Should be a good scrap!

Didn't Plant fight Porky Medina right after David knocked him out and still couldn't put him away.

Aside from this guy talking nonsense Uzcategui is from Venezuela not Bolivia don't know why the article states that his nickname is Bolivita because of the Venezuelan currency the Bolivar named after Simon Bolivar which he used to get for street fighting as a kid.

Good catch, I noticed the error in his birth country. What I didn't know what the background to the story of his nickname. Didn't realize if was after the currency, just figure it was in honor of The Liberator, Simon Bolivar. Thanks for the info...

Benevidez needs to aim higher. Poor fight

[PBR Streetgang]

I don't mind this fight to be honest. Sure Uzcategui has lost his buzz but he's a name and it's essentially a stay busy fight while he waits his shot for the Canelo sweepstakes. It should be fun while it lasts, Benavidez can be hit and Uzcategui can crack a bit when he lands. That said Benavidez by mid rounds TKO.

I can count all the good fighters at 168 with one hand.

I said that two years ago and I was called a hater and it hasn't gotten any better.

Pretty bad fight. Uzcategui been pretty mediocre lately. But it should be fireworks until Benavidez stops him.

Yep. Pretty terrible division.

When I start getting mad about a fight at 168 I gotta take a deep breath and scroll through the first page of the boxrec rankings. Honestly, Berlanga can do what he's doing for a decade +. Just endless heaps of trash there.
