    A Disappointing Saturday

    Boxing has its ups and downs like any sport, but this Saturday seems particularly low, since both David Lemieux and Zab Judah had their fights cancelled. This is definitely not good.

    I realize that Lemieux and Judah are not the top stars of boxing by any means, but this along with the cancellation of Keith Thurman vs. Shawn Porter makes it seem like this weekend is cursed or something.

    Very strange...

        Yeah, the Thurman-Porter clash is very disappointing. I'm sure they will ending fighting each other, but this is one aspect of boxing that gets old really quickly. Of course, I guess there's nothing to be done about it. Still, it does make me wonder if one of the fighters is trying to put it off. I like Wladimir, but I wondered if he postponed the Fury fight on purpose to get in additional training, including sparring with Vitali.

            Turbo Terry Flanagan fighting Derry Matthews in about an hour on BoxNation. Should be a highly entertaining scrap.

              And let's not forget the cancellation of Rigondeaux's English debut.

                  Derry is always in exciting fights and Flanagan is an aggressive fighter.

                  Also Derry is a Scouser and Flanagan is a Manc so the atmosphere will be good.
