        neven pajkic(13-0,#30boxingrec),& artem liponov(1-0)hes a big russian born canadian fighting out of brampton....looks like pajkic is going to pursue a british commonwealth title shot vs winner of chisora\sexton.highly unlikely the winner fights pajkic.chisora or sexton will likely pursue european title shot which would mean the commonwealth belt being vacated.aussie alex leapai fights owen beck & if he wins,he as well could beseeking a commonwealth title fight.canadian & aussie are eligable for the title since both countries are part of the commonwealth.rarely do you see a non-brit fight for the belt but it happens.you look at it & pajkic could be fighting for a vacant commonwealth belt vs a brit or leapai...as long as the bbc doesnt shaft pajkic & ignore the fighters outside britain....steve molitor won the cw belt before he won the his first ibf world title

            Arreola better win then, or he is done. I believe he does by KO, Quezada isn't a top ten fighter, his best win is Walker.

            Adamek a UD over Grant.

            Rahman by KO over Reed, I guess he is taking a page from the Briggs book of how to get back into contention: KO a bunch of stiffs to pad your record and hope that your name gets you a shot at the Klitschkos. I can possibly see Vitaly giving him a grudge match but Wlad no, we know what happens there.

                The three interesting ones in August for me are:

                Arreola-Quezada
                Helenius-Tony
                Adamek-Grant

                I just wish some of the other top 25 HWs would fight as often as Adamek, Helenius and Arreola.

                  It's a cycle of futility with Arreola. Don't take training seriously>beat up on some guy>don't take training seriously>lose big fight>repeat.

                  I'm sure after Arreola destroys Quezada on ESPN it'll give the illusion that "he's back and dedicated this time" and we'll see him on HBO again to either beat up on some other weak opponent or get outclassed by someone who takes the sport more seriously than he does.
