Geffrard (18-2, 12 KOs) is unknown and unproven at the championship level, but the 31-year-old Miami native is in shape because he was scheduled to fight Argentina's Gonzalo Andreasen (7-8, 6 KOs, 1 NC) in an eight-rounder Saturday night in Delray Beach, Florida.

Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, Steve Geffrard... Joe Smith doesn’t care. He wants all the bums out there.

Wrong answer my friend. Keep in mind that money moves not only opponents but sanctioning bodies. Next?

Vlasov will never get his rematch. Got robbed.

[STREET CLEANER]

What a crap opponent they dug up out of no where. This bum slayer had a 7-8 record fighter next to fight until he got this call.
