      the promoters aren't going to have any money left over to give purses to other fighters if that fight takes place. Mayweather-Pacquiao's undercard will be awful.

        I read an article where it said Roman isn't too happy with the way he has been looking recently. His camp also showed their frustrations because they feel like Roman needs to tighten up his defense. They say he is looking quite slow and is getting hit way too much for their liking... This may not seem like anything serious now but this could be an indication that Roman will be hitting his weight cap soon.

              I am glad Hernan "Tysonito" Marquez was removed from Roman's pool of possible opponents. Hernan is done at an elite level and facing a fighter in the likes of Roman would only catapult Marquez to retirement, or worse... Anyway I agree, Roman looked slower thus giving Rocky the opportunity to land some powerful shots in the opening rounds. Thankfully Roman snowballed past it and put a beating on Fuentes for the rest of the fight.

              Gonzalez vs Cuadras would be an amazing fight, I am waiting for it anxiously too 50/50 fight with a pinch of everything. Speed, power, skill, relentlessness, heart and power. It should be a classic, if and only if Cuadras can keep those accidental headbutts in check

                I thought he would be able to go to 115 but it is not likely. He is only 5'3" so he is maximizing his size as it is. I am sure he will tighten it up. The fight after this has to be a mega fight. Regardless, I can't wait!!
