    Felix's promoter really needs to get him on a high-profile United States card where people will see him get a legit win. For most of us, the De La Hoya would-be tuneup is the only time we've seen the guy fight. Not a good way to sell a potential match-up with one of the 10 most reconizable active boxers in the world. I'm not debating whether he got robbed vs. DLH, but since he didn't immediately get a big fight, he needs to go put in more work.

      Personally, I don't think Sturm's messin with Bernard. I think Sturm threw quite a few punches in his fight with Oscar but never finished the job. Hopkins didn't have to bring the fight for very long till Oscar didn't want it anymore. It would be a good technical fight (which alot of casual fans hate), but it won't bring in any money (which I don't care about). What I would like to see though, is a Sturm/Trinidad fight, since they both want Bernard. I think that'll be a better fight than Sturm vs. Hopkins. And it looks like Hopkins is gonna have to keep looking in the 160 lbs division since Tarver's now looking to fight Johnson. He's got plenty of talent to choose from though.

      But we'll see how it all goes down this weekend.

        I would agree that a Sturm/Trinidad fight would be better than Sturm or Trinidad going up against BH directly.

        I'll say this again I don't think Sturm has anything in his arsenal at the moment for him to cope up with what BH has to offer.

          Sturm isn't ready, nor does he deserve it yet.

            I also did not find Sturm very exciting. He jabbed DLH well and ... and I don't know what else to say.

              We seem to agree on almost everything.
