Comments Thread For: Klitschko-Jennings: Ali-Santana in Play For HBO Card

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Word around the industry is that welterweight Sadam Ali - who's coming off a dominant victory over Luis Abregu in November - could be the co-feature on HBO on the night of April 25th at the Madison Square Garden in New York - when Wladmir Klitschko defends his WBO/IBO/WBA/IBF heavyweight titles against Bryant Jennings.

And the name being thrown around to face Ali is the rugged and fan-friendly Francisco 'Chia' Santana (22-3-1, 11 KO's), who kicked off his 2015 with an eye-opening first round stoppage of the previously undefeated Kendal Mena at the Chumash Casino on ESPN2's Friday Night Fights.

Came off a good win earlier against Gomez... this is cool.

I thought it would be like a ward fight and just be a main event, but this is cool

Ali should try and find a better opponent, this is a step down from Abregu.

At the least he should fight someone ranked from the ABC rankings.
