Yuri Foreman to appear on Thursday's 'Jimmy Kimmel Live'

[Evil Abed]

Unbeaten junior-middleweight boxing champion and aspiring rabbi Yuri Foreman will take his story to the late-night crowd Thursday when he appears on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

Foreman (28-0, 8 knockouts) is preparing for his first title defense June 5 at Yankees Stadium versus former world welterweight champion Miguel Cotto on HBO.

The Times' Kevin Baxter documented Foreman's fascinating story earlier this year.

I thought Cory Spinks was the Paulie of the JMW division.

Well Foreman don't deserve to be compared to Spinks. Spinks looks like pacquiao compared to that running coward. ALL he does is running, FOR REAL, not like direll or others.

KO%

26.19 Cory Spinks
27.59 Yuri Foreman
16.67 Paulie Malignaggi

I think Foreman hits harder than Lawrence straight up.
