I didn't post a boxing challenge preview as R.L.Malpica and I each picked the three fights exactly the same for last weekend.
We each got the winners correct and one result right,so we added four points apiece for a 31-29 lead for R.L.
Kell Brook was very impressive in blasting out Jo Jo Dan in four rounds to retain his IBF Welterweight belt.
Brook floored Dan four times and made the durable Romanian look downright incompetent.
The natural fight would be an all UK bout against Amir Khan,who looks less than likely to accept the bout despite the chance to have the only 147 pound title that the Mayweather-Pacquiao winner would not have and make the most money in his career.
Thanks,Al Haymon.
Gary Russell won the WBC Featherweight title with a fourth round stoppage of Jhonny Gonzalez.
Russell notched his first win over a world class opponent and considering how Russell was dispatched by Vasyl Lomachenko,Lomachenko and Nicholas Walters have the most viable claim to the 126 division,
Russell looks to be limited in potential opponents on the PBC side as his best opposition appears to be the shopworn Abner Mares,who didn't want to fight Gonzalez in a contracted rematch and 122 pound champ Leo Santa Cruz,who doesn't appear to be interested in the other champions in his division,
The other bout saw Jermell Charlo take a unanimous decision in a dull bout over Vanes Martirosyan.
I scored the bout 95-95,but have no desire to see this again as Martirosyan and both Charlo brothers are firmly on the next Zabbie list....
I'll have some things tonight from the road office that should be fun,so stay close!
