That's an interesting one, it will tell us a lot about Price.

Did JC Gomez pull out of Prizefighter? Damn it!

Did JC Gomez pull out of Prizefighter? Damn it!

Yes.

The short-notice replacements for Gomez and Oquendo are not nearly as good.

But there are still some decent fighters participating, such as Perez and Johnson.

Johnson is going to sweep this thing now, which is fine, but *damn* this tournament got seriously taken down a notch a week out. Sucks for the promoter and fans attending. I'll still be up early Saturday to catch the stream though.

Seriously, they should have called Audley or Sam Sexton.

The Kubrat Pulev vs. Derric Rossy fight on Saturday hasn't been mentioned much in the boxing media, but it's an interesting fight.

Rossy is not a pushover, this is a stiff test for Pulev.

And the Gerber-Baker fight on Saturday is somewhat interesting.

[The Hammer]

Kevin Johnson has pulled out of International Prizefighter and has been replaced by Evgeny Orlov.
