Comments Thread For: Romero To Face Sparrow In Non-Title Fight, Overweight Pauldo Fails Pre-Fight Physical

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

UNCASVILLE, Connecticut Rolando Romero's options Friday afternoon were to fight an absurdly overweight Justin Pauldo, standby opponent Avery Sparrow or not box at all Saturday night. Romero and his team initially opted to stick with Pauldo as his opponent, even though Pauldo was nearly five pounds too heavy for what was supposed to be a 12-round, 135-pound fight for Romero's WBA interim lightweight title. The contract weight was moved up to 140 pounds to accommodate Pauldo, who would've paid a small sum from his purse to Romero for not meeting his contractual obligation.

Sparrow will win but get robbed

Sparrow certainly has the style to frustrate Rollies...Who looked flat out bad when trying to box with Marinez. But he does have the pop to hurt Sparrow. Hopefully no robbery tomorrow for any of the fights.

All competitive on paper.

Rolly might be in for a long night tomorrow

Hope Sparrow doesn’t have any lingering warrants...I’d hate to see him get carted off tomorrow evening before the fight.

Haha they have Pauldo another hour to make weight and he came back 1 pound heavier... When has that happened? Wasn't even trying... What'd he do go back to the hotel minibar for a snack?

Non-title? Lol. Any fight Romero fought would be non-title unless he was challenging someone with a real belt.

I hope not. Sparrow would get into Rolly real bad and doubt that the kid is prepared for a fight like that.
