I believe HBO has a pretty full schedule in the fall. Doubt that they pick up the fight. I think it'll be PPV for sure.

[quoteCup B4 I Die]I'm tempted to get tickets to the Vargas/Mayorga fight. I'm anticipating these two going at it, could be an entertaining fight. Thougts??

Vargas-Mayorga won't be the most technical fight but I'll guarantee you it won't go to the scorecards. Being at a fight is always a good thing and it should have a pretty good atmosphere. I say go for it.[/QUOTE]

Yah, nothing like going to a live fight. I went to see Taylor vs Hopkins 1 in Vegas. By brother and I sat in the last row at the MGM, but we had a great time.

I'm still pissed at myself for not getting seats for the Paul Williams/Margarito fight in Carson, wished I was there for that one.

****. I don't know how Rey Boom Boom will respond after getting KTFO by de Leon in the 1st round!

He's still young, taking the Ponce de Leon fight was a huge huge mistake. He should have been brought along a lot more slowly. He still has a future, but he's going to have to learn some defense or at least some head movement.

Anyone know what Prince Hamed is up to these days?

Probably still having nightmares of the asswhooping Marco Antonio Barrera gave him.

Haven't watched that one in a while. I'll have to find the tape this weekend.

He went to jail not that long ago for reckless driving. I think he is out now but his career is over.

You know, I remember that fight being really one-sided, but after watching the tape a couple of weeks ago, Hamed really deserved to win 4 of the 12 rounds.

Barrera took his foot off the gas in the middle of that fight.

I wasn't impressed by Hamed in this fight or any fight in particular. In this one he was taken totally out of his game and he ran. The fight is online, I'll try and find it to watch again, but Hamed was throughly dominated in this fight. Barrera brought the fight and Hamed didn't want it.

Anyways, I was pissed that Morales never got to fight Hamed. Hamed ducked both guys for years, he deserved an ass kicking from Morales too.

Check it out again - when Hamed had his jab pumping he won the rounds.
