This week on July 9, in Carson, California, Brandon Rios puts his WBA lightweight title belt up against fast and tough foe Urbano Antillon 다운로드.

The fight, televised on Showtime, should be action packed, and features a solid undercard as well.

It’s not an easy fight to call. The champion, Rios, 25, 27-0-1, (19), stands 5’8 and has a 1” height advantage over the challenger pc용 카톡.

Antillon, 28, sports a record of 28-1 with 30 knockouts, just seems to impress more and more with every fight.

Antillon has the bigger reach by three inches and has faced tougher foes 다운로드.

It’s a hard fight to call. Both fighters are from Southern California so there’s no home field edge here.

I’ll go with the older Antillon to win a hard fought decision in a very close and exciting fight 스타 빠른무한 다운로드.

Congratulations to my friend David Martinez who next week on July 15 will celebrate four years of success with his website dmboxing.com

In Rusty’s Corner ~ Klitschko v. Haye

Rusty Rubin is a veteran boxing writer

This week on July 2, in Hamburg, Germany, Wladimir Klitschko puts his IBF and WBO belts up against fast and hard hitting David Haye and his WBA belt 다운로드.

Klitschko is taller by 3 1/2” and has a 3” longer reach, but Haye does have power, although he doesn’t show much one-punch ability to take his opponent out 다운로드. At 35, he’s also five years older than Haye and has fought better name fighters.

The question with Klitschko in the past has been his chin, which seems to have held up well in recent fights 들국화 1집 다운로드. Being knocked out does not equate to having a glass jaw.

As I see it, Haye has to wear Wladimir down in order to have a decent shot to win, and unless his legs betray him, I don’t see that happening 어벤져스 자막 다운로드.

Klitschko by decision or late stoppage.

Glove 2 Glove:

One of the founders of the World Boxing Hall of Fame passed away cython 다운로드. Dub Harris, also an honored veteran of WWII left us on June 21. Thanks Dub, you were one of the great guys I was privileged to meet and get to know.

First, a continuing wish a speedy and full recovery to Oscar de la Hoya and Mia St 다운로드. John who are both undergoing rehab treatment.

 

This week on June 25, in Cozumel, Mexico, Tijuana native and veteran Humberto Soto takes on Motoki Sasaki, from Japan, for the WBC lightweight title 다운로드.

 

Also this week on June 25, I wish my friend and boxing historian David Martinez “Happy Birthday”.

The Fight:

 

Soto, 31, 55-7-2, seems to have been around forever, but is still four years younger than the largely unheralded Sasaki, who rarely fights outside of Japan 패션오브 크라이스트 다운로드.

 

On the surface it seems like a fight that Soto should dominate, as he has fought far bigger names than Sasaki. There is a however, here 다운로드. Sasaki has fought mainly Japanese fighters, and there aren’t a lot of folks here who know their names, let alone their toughness.

 

Still, I can’t go against the younger and more experienced Soto, especially since the fight is in Mexico 이클립스 테마 다운로드.

 

Humberto by TKO early, in what looks like a short, but action packed bout.

 

Glove 2 Glove

 

On a personal note, I would request prayers for my wonderful wife Lois, who is dealing with a still unclearly diagnosed condition 다운로드.

 

Prayers are requested for the health of outstanding trainer Joe Sousa, who is fighting the fight of his life against cancer.

 

Prayers for the complete return to good health to my old friend, promoter, and ex-wrestler Jack ‘Moe’ Smith who had complete reconstructive knee surgery a couple of weeks back 다운로드. Moe’s a fighter and making a complete recovery.

 

Please pray for my Aussie mates and Glove2Glove member John MacDougall, who had to deal with health problems for his wife of many years Gwen, who is in a nursing home John, a former Commissioner is having problems after a hip replacement surgery 손오공 다운로드. Both need your prayers for recovery and inner strength.

 

Please say prayers for Phill Grazide of Santa Rosa, CA. a big supporter of amateur boxing, who is suffering the crippling effects of rheumatoid arthritis 다운로드.

First I’d like to wish a speedy and full recovery to Oscar de la Hoya and Mia St 윈도우7 iso 이미지 다운로드. John who are both undergoing rehab treatment.***

 

Floyd Mayweather Jr. is planning a return to the ring in September against quick, but somewhat feint-hearted Victor Ortiz 다운로드. It’s a good tune-up for a match with Manny Pacquiao later in the year, or perhaps he’s looking for another easy day at the office. In any event, this fight shouldn’t prove too difficult for Mayweather.***

 

Now, another thought that has crossed my little-used brain (in recent times) fifa online 3. How about a real reality show for our over-the hill fighters who refuse to realize when the game is done?

 

Here’s what I propose 다운로드. A box-off tournament where the losers has to retire and only one of the fighters involved can remain active (or what passes in today’s boxing for ‘active’ 다운로드.

 

For example Roy Jones Jr. fights Evander Holyfield with the loser retiring and the winner going on to fight the winner of Bernard Hopkins vs 스냅샵 다운로드. Oliver McCall. It need not be confined to just four over-the hill pugilists. You can throw in your own names wherever you like.

 

While I hate reality shows, this is one concept I would gladly support 다운로드. Because getting rid of some one-time great fighters who are now little more than just an embarrassment to our sport has to be a good thing, for both the fans and the fighters 추억 의 오락실 게임 다운로드.

 

For the record, I think Hopkins easily continues to fight on.

I wasn’t going to comment on this, but enough people have expressed an interest, so let’s take a close look at what might just be one of the more interesting fights of the year 다운로드.

This weekend in Montreal, Jean Pascal takes on the ageless Bernard Hopkins in a rematch of a ‘majority draw’ held last Dec. 18, at the same venue, the Bell Center 다운로드.

Many people think that the draw was a ‘hometown’ affair, with Pascal, a native of Haiti living there.

The fact remains that Hopkins, at age 46, is not the same fighter he once was 다운로드. No question he can still think on his feet with the best of them, but he has been slowing down in recent times.

Well the time has come to take a close look at what might just be one of the most exciting fights of the year 다운로드.

 

At the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on May 7th, Manny “Pac Man” Pacquiao takes on tough “Sugar” Shane Mosley.

 

At first glance the odds seem a bit too high at 5-1 content-disposition 다운로드. Mosley, who doesn’t have the hand and foot speed he once did, can still punch and as a natural welterweight, does have the size advantage over Pac Man 스팟파이어 다운로드.

 

Mosley, 46-6-1 (39) also lost to Floyd Mayweather, who doesn’t seem to have the stones to face the flamboyant Philippine.

 

At 39, this could be the last big payday for Mosley, but if he wins, all bets are off 창세기전2 다운로드. Shane does have a height and reach advantage over Pacquiao, and has shown a solid chin as well.

Sometimes it is said that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks 40 넋. Not that he’s old (or a dog) but Michael Katsidis at 30, is a prime example of this. Check his record, and then check his record against southpaws. It’s something worthy of note 큐시트 양식 다운로드.

I take nothing away from Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero, 28, who pretty much out-boxed Katsidis in every round, indicating his past personnel trouble may be far behind him 다운로드.

Two fights this week worth commenting on, both important contests.

The first, from Foxwoods, features Andre Berto, a U.S. Olympian, who record equals his age 다운로드. He’s 27-0 (27) and 27 years old as well. The only negative would be is that he doesn’t seem to have one-punch knockout power.

This fight is for the WBC welterweight crown 다운로드.

At 5’8” he just might need one against tough Victor Ortiz. A strong southpaw who sports a 20-1 mark with twenty coming by way of the knockout 윈도우 10 어도비 플래시 수동 다운로드. He seems to have the one-punch power to go with his southpaw style.

And, making a case for Ortiz is the fact that his only loss was a DQ (not Dairy Queen) against Maidana, who beat Erik Morales last weekend 가요 미디 파일.

Not an easy fight to call by any means, but I’ll take the more polished Berto to take a close decision.

The other bout worthy of note is a junior welter affair that features Amir Khan, 24-1 (17) who will have a height and reach advantage against southpaw Paul McClosky 22-0, (12) 윈도우 8 1 정품 다운로드. The fight is in the UK, so there’s no clear home court advantage for either fighter.

At 24, Khan is seven years younger than McClosky and seems to have a reach advantage as well 자두 김밥 다운로드.

This fight from the UK has a lot of people wondering just how good Khan is, and I think we’re going to find out on Saturday.

Kudos to Muhammad Ali for his attempt to free two American hikers who are being imprisoned in Iran 다운로드. We can hope other Muslim leaders step forward to speak out for the freedom of these two young men.***

 

Sometimes it’s easier to pick out the most exciting of the weekends action than the fight itself 다운로드. This weekend should give us that,

 

The bout, on Saturday, in Mexicali, Mexico between Giovani Segura and Ivan “Iron Boy” Calderon for the WBA/WBO Jr 다운로드. Flyweight crown is one of those fights.

 

Segura, 28, sports a record if 26-1 with 22 stoppages.

 

Calderon, a 36 year old southpaw, 34-1 (6), also has one blemish on his record, his last bout, a loss to Segura via an 8th round knockout 언프렌디드 다운로드.

 

Besides the youth, Segura has a 4 inch height advantage as well as a six inch reach edge.

 

On paper it looks like another win for the harder punching Segura, but in the ring is where it counts 핀터레스트 다운로드.

 

Okay, I’m a sucker for the obvious….Segura to score a TKO midway.

A couple of interesting and probably very exciting fights upcoming this weekend (March 12).

First in Las Vegas, where the crowd pleasing Ricardo Mayorga takes on always tough contender Miguel Cotto, to be seen on Showtime PPV, for the WBA super middleweight title 다운로드.

Cotto, 30, is a solid fighter who cuts, and at times shows a china chin, has only lost two of his 37 bouts to Antonio Margarito and Manny Pacquiao Autoset download. A good tandem to lose to, if a loss is in the cards.

Cotto stands 5’7” and has a 67 inch reach.

Sometimes, when picking out a fight to make a prediction on, many things come into play 다운로드.

This week I chose the WBA title fight between Anselmo Moreno and Lorenzo Parra, taking place in Moreno’s native country, Panama. One of the things that make this fight interesting and difficult to predict is that Parra is from the neighboring country next door, Venezuela, so if there is a hometown edge here, it’s very difficult to find 다운로드.

Moreno, 25, a southpaw, sports a record of 30-1 (10 KO’s) with 4 of his past 6 wins coming on split decisions. In short, he does well in close fights 세인트세이야 오메가 다운로드.

Parra, 32, 31-2-1 (18), has faced tougher foes and appears to be the better banger of the two combatants, although neither shows real knockout power 다운로드.

At 5’8”, Moreno does have a significant size advantage.

So how does one break down a contest like this? Well, it’s not easy, which is why I chose this one to make the prediction on 다운로드.
