[Leohappy]

they are kinda rushing this card together,but it's looking good:
berto vs. zavec
bailey vs. tba
gary russell vs. tba

any ideas who they are going to match bailey against? probably one of the high IBF ranked guys.

[Rome-By-Ko]

This sounds like a good night of boxing..

[Leohappy]

JR vs someone w/an inflated record/w/no punch...time to start vs fighters that bring something to the table...w/his amateur experience and his pro record, w/some spoon-feeding....time to get serious and take a big step...do it russell and see what happens...
