Rusty Rubin is an award winning boxing writer, covering the sweet science for more than 35 years. He is a wonderful friend and has contributed to this website since 2007.
No walk down memory lane this time around as a lot has transpired since my last article.
First let’s take a good look at the upcoming fight this weekend between Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Alfredo Angulo.
This bout will be shown on ShowTime (PPV ) and takes place on March 8 at the MGM Grand Las Vegas. It’s also for the light middlweight title 다운로드.
Canelo is coming off his first loss, but a loss to Floyd Mayweather Jr. is nothing to get upset about. No one has beaten ‘money’ yet.
Of course everyone acts different to adversity and one thing you never know about a fighter is his mindset, particularly after his first and only defeat.
Canelo is young, 23, and very talented. He is 42-1-1 with 30 knockouts. He’s exciting to watch.
There’s a lot to like about this young man, and he matches up well with Angulo.
Angulo, comes in with a 22-3 record with 18 coming via the knockout route. He hasn’t faced a lot of tough opposition, but except for Mayweather, neither has Canelo 캄보디아어 다운로드.
Neitherfighter has a noticeable height or reach advantage, so except for the age difference, (Alvarez is eight years younger), there isn’t much to choose from there.
Okay, it’s time to stop equivocating. Alvarez is younger but also has more experience. This is pretty much of a must win fight for Angulo.
Assuming the loss to Mayweather doesn’t lay heavily on Canelo’s mind, he should stop Angulo early.***

Rusty, as you might know, I have Cancer of the liver, Cirrhosis of the liver, Kidney disease, Diabetes, a stomach problem with a name that for the moment alludes me. You also might know that cancer liver patients only have a life span of only one year. You know the story of Rodolfo Gonzalez, who, when he was 27 years old, his body ravaged with Cancer, he was given only two months to live, that night, he prayed to the Lord to take him as he did not want to be a burden to his mother. While praying that
night, he had a visitation from Our Blessed Mother, Our Lady of Guadalupe, telling
him to go to the little Tijuana church in town and to pray to Her Son. He had a tough time making it to the church, his pain was so immense, he did as he had been told, he prayed and prayed, when he left the little church, his heart had stopped hurting. Soon after, he was completely cured of all the Cancers
that had consumed his body.
Today, Rodolfo is completely devoted to Our Lady of Guadalupe and Her Son, Jesus. He enjoys telling audiences of his miraculous healing.
Rodolfo Gonzalez went on to become the Lightweight Champion of the World. Today, his championship belt still hangs by the altar of Our Lady of Guadalupe Cathedral in Mexico City. Today, he is in his sixties and feels fine. When I was told of my Cancers, I looked for Rodolfo the very next night at the fights. Finding him, I told him of my dilemma and asked him to pray for me and to please lay hands on my liver. That was seven years ago, I have never felt any pain nor have I been sick in all that time. I still have the two Cancers and the other ailments, the laying of hands by Rodolfo seems to have had miraculous results, it is as though the same Our Lady of Guadalupe who once cured Rodolfo, worked her wonderful holy magic on me., It was my great faith in Her that led me to look for Rodolfo the following night. Seven years later and I feel wonderful. My doctors are mystified, they know of the one year life span of a liver cancer patient. In my case, my having two separate cancers of my liver. I know I am blessed, I now feel that the Good Lord and His Mother Mary allowed me to have my 12 years radio show in order for me to meet Rodolfo Gonzalez whose great faith as well as my own great faith would result in my living a life that should have ended, medically speaking, seven years ago. I feel fine and am alive to endlessly give all praise and glory to Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and His beautiful Mother Mary.
