    Roberto Garcia,who fought so well against Norberto Gonzalez,turned down the offer to fight James Kirkland on April 26: Leon Margules #boxing


    I'm thinking it's Willie Nelson and maybe held at MW

    Think Garcia sparred with Kirkland before, he knows what he would be getting into. He also knows that Kirkland has stamina that is much better than the kid he beat on FNF. I'm also thinking that Willie Nelson will fight him come April

      Most likely going to be Willie. He's a JMW and with Lou. Most likely Lee on the card, so Lou has a chance to get in there.
      Would be nice to see Stevens in there, but he ain't taking 100k
      Most likely going to be on the HBO show in March or NBC show in March/April

        Is Kirkland vs. Lara just not a possible? How about Thurman vs. Lara? I don't really understand why there's not fighters lining up to face Kirkland. Even at the pace he fights he's a walking punching bag.

              This specific fight is on HBO.
              Also I don't know how his relationship with GBP is after the canelo debacle

                Another poster said it best

                It's all fun and games fighting Kirkland until you're suffering from internal bleeding midway through the 1st round
