This is pretty nice. Crawford vs. Dellorme for WBO belt that Chris Algieri gave up, when he fought Manny. Winner must fight Algieri, to retain belt.

I'd love to see Mikey Garcia vs. Crawford or Algieri.


Crawford has A LOT of potential.

Holy crap that kid is good.

I love Crawford's patience and adjustments. He was getting wiped out by Gamboa and I was getting frustrated watching Crawford not throw, but he was patient enough to time and capitalize on Gamboa's openings (and chin).

Jay Z. One of the richest entertainers. Big checks. New York based. Cotto. Last leg. No dance partners. Looking for big checks.

Perfect match.

Crawford is nice. Should have a few fights at 140 before getting a title shot. Uncle Bob doing work. So much for working yourself up the ladder.

Yup. Although, since Gary Shaw backed out of his deal with them so quickly, I'm wondering who's gonna head up the promotional aspects of it because if that 1st card they put on TV is any indication of what they plan on putting together, then I wouldn't want to see RocNation as the lead promoter for any boxing events!...LOL.

Nonito Donaire fighting at the end of March, in the Philippines. Return to 122

http://rp1.abs-cbnnews.com/sports/03/04/15/arum-bares-future-plans-donaire

Aside from Rigondeaux, who I'm still wondering if Nonito could do better against (than what he showed), I think Nonito can beat everybody at 122.

Looks like Amir is looking at Cotto, Marquez, or Bradley. Not likely fighting Brook, due to his needing to fight in late May or early June, prior to a religious holiday.

http://www.fanatix.com/news/boxing-news-amir-khan-snubs-kell-brook-for-us-mega-fight/533424/

I actually wouldn't mind seeing Cotto vs. Bundrage. It's not a PPV fight, but would definitely be entertaining.

Rafael chat had some interesting info in it, including the presser for the fight likely at Nokia Theatre. Good venue to host press only, but you know that there are gonna be a grip of people outside as well, so heads up for those that work or go to school in the area.

http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chat/_/id/51634/boxing-with-dan-rafael

Other thing interesting is the mention of Haymon and Jay Z not doing business together. I don't know where that beef originated, but something I didn't know.

I guess it was a bad split between Cotto and Top Rank (even though Cotto was still technically a free agent).

Yeah, from what it seems, they don't have a case. Just hope it doesn't stop Lemieux from fighting. I'd even love to see him vs. GGG, even though he's already been KTFO.

He is an idiot. TR and GBP offered him more money than what he got paid for the Mayweather fight and refused to negotiate with TR, GBP, and Canelo.

Who turns down a fight with Canelo and potentially make 15 million for the fight?

Well, whatever the case, I guess he's doing what's "best for Miguel Cotto..."....

Anybody else kinda tired of Cotto talking in 3rd person? I have always liked Cotto, but damn that win against Sergio has him seeming just as much a "diva" as people have said.

100% agree.

I don't think he realizes how quickly he can become irrelevant again.

Pretty good breakdown. One thing I'd add, regarding Guerrero, is that he's significantly slower fighting at Welterweight, than he was at lightweight. I think, to a certain extent, is what has changed his ability to box from the outside (which he did very well at lightweight). The power he showed at lightweight also didn't translate to welterweight, so the need to turn into a brawler might have been there, by volume punching and inside fighting. He had height and weight advantages when fighting at lightweight that I think allowed him to be more versatile, but just not the same fighting at the higher weight.
