[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Peter Quillin will defend his world title belt against Gabriel Rosado on October 26th, Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer told BoxingScene.com late Saturday night.

Schaefer confirmed the rumor that had been floating around the boxing circles within the last week or so.

The Quillin-Rosado fight will take place at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, NJ.

In his last fight on April 27th, Quillin (29-0, 21 KOs) stopped Fernando Guerrero in the seventh round at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.

I like Gabe Rosado, but he's a Jr. Middleweight. This is a waste of time, another Golden Boy fighter, taking a real chance going in against a smaller guy...thanks to the promoter feud and Al Haymon school of business we are talking about this and not Golovkin Vs. Quillin.

I think he'll move into MW a lot better this time around. Did good against a small CW and he gets better with every fight. I don't think he'll win, but I think this'll go to a decision

well planned by team quillin, they're already training for gabe for 2 months then accept a fight with him when its months away

I gotta favour Quillin, but don't forget Gabe was a big JMW, I think he's growing into MW just fine, except his power, which wasn't massive at 154 is definitely unspectacular at MW.

I also think Gabe is improving fight on fight, he only went full-time as a boxer at the start of 2012 after Soto-Karass - that's only 4 fights. I expect Rosado to give Kid Chocolate some difficulties, and it ought to be a sorta yardstick for GGG (despite the 'flu business). Hope Gabe gets a better payday than the initial stories indicate though.

Oh yeah, and the article also fails to mention J'Leons drug test failure and the changing of the fight result to a NC.

War Rosado.

PS Anyone know what happened to the Macklin rumours? After Quillin perhaps?

Not fair for Gabriel Rosado, less training time.
