    Pacquiao Clottey will be another blow out. Gomez and Castillo is a fight for no hopers everywhere. It'll be a nice scrap, but this should open the fight.

    Margarito-Jones is whatever, but is nowhere near Co Main event status. Some say he shouldn't be even allowed to fight.

    This is not better then Katsidis/Escebedo and John/Juarez II. John Juarez II was a terrible fight, but at least it kind of meant something.

      I like the fight, it could be interesting.
      yea i'm looking forward to it as well. should be a lot of margarito fans at the fight as well with the huge amount of mexicans in the dallas area and surrounding areas. i will no doubt attend this fight card as soon as i get ticket info i will be making my purchases.

        They should put Soto on there too to round it out.
        anytime Margarito or Castillo are fighting I'm intrested, adding Soto would be the icing on the cake

          That card looks great. It featres three fighters Floyd ducked (Pacuiao, Clottey, Margarito) and one fighter that beat Floyd (Castillo). They should name this card Floyd's Nightmare.

            Carson Jones is **** too btw. The only reason why that fight is even remotely acceptable is because Margarito is coming off a bad loss and Jones beat one of the most protected prospects of recent times.

            The fighters Jones have lost to are mostly **** themselves. Best of that bunch being Gomez.

              People on this site are so quick to forget what a legend Castillo is.

              He doesn't get the respect he deserves at all on here.

              dammit.

                i think you are underestimating Clottey. I think this loss against Cotto will have motivated him to step up his game as he has the talent just has not been able to finish out fights. I expect the most motivated performance of his career although well i guess i could be overestimating him myself. He has the talent though to win this fight. And true Gomez vs Castillo best days are gone but i still expect a good fight that will be a crowd pleaser. And well as for margarito some are more looking forward to his return than others lol!

                  Nice facts about Clottey:

                  He has no stamina.

                  He doesn't give angles.

                  He comes straight foward.

                  He rarely punches.

                  He doesn't hit hard.

                  He doesn't move his head.

                  Pacman will beat him pretty easy.

                    Hes a hall of famer...but its safe to say hes wayyyyyyyyyyyy past it and should probably be enjoying retirement.

                      He's not a worldbeater but he's a solid journeyman who can give Tony some good rounds for his comeback.
