Message: [QUOTE="JAXCUSE, post: 3927293, member: 516"] Good rundown as usual. I thought the best (action packed/competitive) fight of the night was Buatsi-Bolotniks on the DAZN undercard. Buatsi reminds me a bit of Matthew Saad Muhammad (exciting Lt Heavy Champ from the 80’s). Heavy hands, throws punches in bunches and blocks allot of shots with his face…. Heard that Hearn is planning to put him in with Bivol next. Potentially good fight…. Ortiz and Ennis are the future of the Welterweight Division. Ortiz looked good - survived a rocky 2nd and ground the “Mean Machine” down after the 5th. I’ll give Oscar (Golden Boy) credit - he’ll test his prospects against threatening opposition (unlike PBC)….. And work with other promotional groups (unlike Haymon). Maybe we’ll see him in with Crawford next year. Seen enough of Franco-Moloney (three fights in a row). Not sure where Franco goes from here - maybe Arum serves him up at 118 for Inoue. Both under contract with TR…. Ahhhh Rigo. I was already sleepy and you didn’t disappoint…. Fight was a stinker (Rigo lack of volume and Casimero didn’t know how to cut off the ring). I thought Rigondeaux won it, even though he threw and landed the fewest punches recorded in a 12 rd fight since Compubox started recording the stat. Sarcasm aside, Rigo has great skills and athleticism still (at 38 yrs of age), but just doesn’t let his hands go often enough to make him a fan favorite. Casimero looked terrible, but will probably make a more exciting matchup with Donaire (if Arum can make a unification fight at 118). And try to line the winner up against Monster. Bummed about the Pac-Spence cancellation, but what can ya do? At least the Nevada Commission found Errol’s retinal tear in the pre-fight exam (system worked). Makes me wonder how long he’s had the injury and whether the car crash had something to do with it (pure speculation). It will still be interesting to see Manny back in action; if only to see what he has left at 42. Ugas (replacement) isn’t a bum - gave Shawn Porter an even scrap a couple of years ago. But, regardless of outcome, I doubt we’ll see the Spence matchup rescheduled. I believe Pacquiao’s promotional agreement with PBC is up after this fight and Manny needs to retire someday. Doesn’t he?
