Once again, it's time to drop another edition of Who's Hot and Who's Not. This time, we run through an entire mill of people in the sport of boxing.
Who's Hot
ESPN - Finally a company puts out a pay per view product that is worthy of being bought by any boxing fan. Fans tired of buying garbage pay per views loaded with horrible mismatched undercards and a so-so main event need to check out this show. Four main event caliber matches on one single show. Any one of these bouts can headline a boxing card on any network. In the opening bout, undefeated Calvin Brock takes on his biggest test to date as he faces the dangerous Jameel McCline. This fight will show us if Brock is either a contender or a pretender. If Brock wins and wins big, he could be quickly thrown into the mix for a title shot in a division desperate for a new star. If McCline wins, he will be back in the mix for a title shot himself. The second bout features Shane Mosley in his return to the welterweight division. Shane has not won a fight in quite some time, he picks the crafty David Estrada in a bout that should provide fireworks.
Sensational Juan Diaz will face the never say die Ebo Elder. Elder has had a very nice string of good wins against good opponents and his motivation is at a high level. Diaz should have no problems in this bout, but Ebo does have a puncher's chance. In the main event we have a fight of the year contender. Two men with the ability to knock a guy out with a single shot. Antonio Margarito faces rising star Kermit Cintron. This fight will be a total slugfest because both men don't know how to fight any other way. They love to mix it up and prove their power, one of these men will not see the final round. A huge step up in class for Cintron and a very dangerous fight for Margarito's career. [details]
