    Translation :
    Renzo Bagnariol would like to play a hand in the decisions of local boxers.
    His position as a member of the WBA executive comittee has obligated him to stay at a distance.
    As a matter of fact, with so much experience in this thing we call boxing, Renzo is well aware of Ricardo Mayorga, whom has decided no to fight the mexican Alejandro "Terra" Garcia, on may 21st in Chicago, under the umbrella of Don King Promotions.
    "In my very personal opinion, speaking as a fellow boxing follower, i think that Mayorga has made a very misguided decision.", said Renzo.
    "I know that the amount of money that he was offered for the fight is very big, and i think he should fight", He indicated.
    Mayorga refuses to fight Garcia because he signed to face off with the spaniard Francisco Javier Castillejo, WBC Super Welterweight Champion.
    However the fight with Terra could be signicant, on top of it being a wise economical decision, there is the posibility to get a win, which would lead to a face off with castillejo.
    "Mayorga should think about his future, but the sad thing is that he is not training. When he gets the big opportunities, he wont be able to take them because he wont be prepaired.", said Renzo.
    Mayorga has not fought since October 2nd when he was Knocked Out by "Tito" Trinidad.
    But his return to the ring has been postponed, even though he has a chance to shine.
    "Prepaired, Mayorga has it in him to beat whomever is in his class, but its a shame that he has even stopped training", finished Renzo.

      Without reading through all the pages. Anyone else realize Garcia has 28 wins, with 28 KOs and 1 loss? That could be why he's scared, the guy has a better and scarier record than Mayorga.

        Dont think that has anything to do with it. Mayorga fought Trinidad, whom does he have to fear at super welter?

          Maybe that's why he'd be scared? He fought a guy who KO'ed his ass. I'd be a bit frightened by a power puncher, if I were him.

            Nah, i dont think so. I think i would do the same thing as Mayorga if i were in his shoes. I would be Stubborn and hard-headed, he signed a contract and than he finds out it doesnt mean anything. And what about Castillejo not fighting because he is filming a reality show. What kind of a champion is he?

              Basically says, that Mayorga does not want to fight an eliminatory battle. He wants a championship fight with Javier Castillejo. Unfortunately, Castillejo is in Kenya, shooting a Spanish Reality Show. Mayorga says he did not sign for Garcia. Mayorga left back to Nicaragua. Don King productions is going to Nicaragua as well to convince him to return to the United States.

              This sucks, most likely means that Mayorga will not be fighting on the 21 of May... Damn, I was excited too.

              Too bad for Mayo . . . this is not the best time for him to be choosy He just came from a lost and it would be best for him to fight anybody to get back in the thick of the action. Garcia is a tough fight for him but this is what he exactly need to be lined up for bigger fights.
