Comments Thread For: Elvis Rodriguez To Face Joseph Adorno on February 25 As Part Of Showtime Tripleheader

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Elvis Rodriguez's lengthy layoff has been scheduled to end February 25. BoxingScene.com has learned Rodriguez will oppose Joseph Adorno next month in a junior welterweight clash Showtime will televise from The Armory in Minneapolis. As BoxingScene.com previously reported, Showtime's tripleheader that night also will feature hard-hitting Puerto Rican contender Subriel Matias (18-1, 18 KOs) against Argentina's Jeremias Ponce (30-0, 20 KOs) in a 12-round fight for the vacant IBF junior welterweight title.

Think I saw Dan Rafael mentioned Fulton-Figueroa II will headline this card.

So far this is a better card than those ppv that have gone by.

Yes, I think so - I don't think Matias-Ponce headlines.

Matias/Ponce seems like it's taken forever to make. Both guys have been on the shelf, completely stagnant.

Solid match up but I wonder if Adorno's hand has healed already I thought he hurt it in his last fight.

Still weird to me that Top Rank dropped Elvis after a single loss

Yes, I think so - I don't think Matias-Ponce headlines.

If Subriel Matias is able to defeat Jeremias Ponce, in their upcoming fight that should put an end to him not headlining a fight card.
Especially if he win's in by a fight ending spectacular knockout, he'll have finally established himself as a main event fighter.

As for Joseph Adorno vs Elvis Rodriguez, I'm looking for Adorno's power to take out Rodriguez in the mid round's after a spirited firefight.

By the end of their fight's on 2/25/2023, Matias should be win the IBF 140 pound title, and Adorno should be closing in on one at 140 himself.
