Juanma fight would have been perfect as cofeature in Yankee stadium in June, but to see him fight on showtime and have Bernstein,Steve with commentating would be diff than kellerman and company calling the fight. morel will beat arce , wouldn't blame hbo not picking this up.

hasegawa and montiel are fighting each other.

I know arum is all bout money , and really who ain't, rite..but to have arce on a cofeature really sucks. It sure would have been a real great event to see that double header in the BX..

[King Ju-Ju]

Greedy Bob Arum is behind all this. Instead of putting this Juanma fight on the undercard of Cotto vs Foreman at Yankee stadium, he goes this route cuz its 2 so, so events instead of 1 big 1. 2 events equals more $$ 4 uncle Bob.

Ok. When you say same show. You mean not on the same broadcast? Or not in the same arena because I heard on here that they were doing a split-double header PPV thing. Guess it got scrapped.
