Leo Santa Cruz vs. Abner Mares on ESPN 8/29 or CBS 9/6

[WarMaidana]

good fight but should have happened about a year ago

[Scipio2009]

Showtime has been screwed so bad by Haymon and Espinoza is too whipped to even realize.

Showtime and CBS are under the same darn umbrella; notice how Les Moonves (CBS President and CEO) was the go-to man for the Mayweather-Pacquiao talks.

To top that off, Showtime has put on two Deontay Wilder fights so far (American heavyweight champion of the world) and will have put on two Julio Chavez Jr fights before the summer is out (arguably the second biggest Mexican star in boxing today). You add that, if Team Kovalev ever picks up a set, they're likely going to be Stevenson's outlet of choice if the purse bid is won.

ESPN is not getting this fight

what makes you say that?

This is the start of my man LSC's return to glory. First he's gonna KO Mares. Then Frampton gets his ass whopped. Then maybe throw in a quigg or an easy win before he gets Rigo's ass.

I'm usually against both of them but i'm hoping that LSC pulls it off. Although i was more than happy that Jhonny Gonzalez pulled off the upset of the year, LSC beating him will seal the deal.

Fight seems a little late we have seen a lot of Santa Cruz's and Mares' weaknesses, it's no longer the same fight. Saying that I hope Mares beats that mother****er up.

Mind me asking, why do you like LSC more than mares?

Mares has fought good opposition and has been moving up in weight
LSC has only fought at 122 against LITERALLY sparring partners

fk LSC i hope mares knocks him out (not likely possible)
