Not much there with orozco. Extremely slow and predictable with not much power, not like his "record" indicates. Talk about a built up KO record. And in a hot division, he is doomed.

He nearly k.o.'d Honorio.

Against an easy to hit, 34 year old over his best fighting days and over his best fighting weight. Nothing special to see folks.

No. Just a string of setups. It's gotten old, fast. I would rather see prospects fight prospects like many ShowBox cards over the years where they have even matchups.

I found the fight to be pretty entertaining, along with the Harris and Espadas fight.

I do love the New Generation fights on Shotime.

This was just the start of a boxing filled weekend. Im happy

For example, Frank Galarza is an unbeaten fighter who is facing his FOURTH unbeaten fighter on ShowBox tonight. This is a guy who he, and his team, are willing to fight anyone! I'll back someone like him because he does not face a bunch of setups like these overprotected fighters out there are facing. Same with the guy Galarza is facing, Bouchard.....both guys are putting their unbeaten records on the line for a chance to rise up through the rankings. F.uck these other guys on FS1 and the late Saturday night cards on the Hispanic cannels with 80%-90% setups where you KNOW the outcome of the fight card before round one. ESPN did this for a long time and now at least they are doing Boxino which is not a bunch of setups. I'm TIRED of seeing certain networks and shows "showcase" "new" talent in one gravy train fight after another. F.UCK THAT!!! Put these F.UCKERS in with a fighter with a damn heartbeat who isn't there to go along with the plan. Fight LIVE fighters. Not TBA's, not washed up has-beens and never were's or hapless, helpless guys who are brought in as cannon fodder to build up some unbeaten protected TR or GBP puppy. F.UCK that! That's why ShowBox for many years pits 20-0 against 22-1 and 25-2 against 15-0 and 14-0 against 21-0 type fighters. They wanted competitive fights, not obvious setups to make some little prick look better than he is. I don't want to see some 25-15 record 36 year old fighter who has not fought in 2 years going up against some arrogant little hot shot who thinks his sht doesn't stink. Put that unbeaten f.ucker against another unbeaten fighter and make him earn his wages and see if he is real or was a hype job and his little gravy train comes to an end. The cream rises to the top. Enough of the Wilders and Jose Benavidez's of the world who feast off of setups.
