go to the Blackburnman Flash link. It is working fine (though not in English).

Soto vs Antillon should be decent. Donaire should win going away against Sidorenko but should have to put in some rounds.

Showing Garcia vs Lontchi. Lontchi(previously fought at 122) is much smaller than Garcia, who appears to be big for 126. Garcia should stop him around round 6-7.

Garcia stopped him in round 5, so I was off by a round. 1st knockdown, Garcia landed a stiff jab followed by a right hand that dropped Lontchi. Lontchi got up on unsteady legs. Ref asked him to walk towards him(a couple of times) and you could tell Lontchi didn't really want to as his legs were not there and he was hurt. Garcia followed up and got Lontchi on the ropes and landed left hooks to body, head, and right hands it appeared. Lontchi went down to a knee after 4-5 shots and stayed on the knee for the full count.

No idea why Garcia is fighting this kind of guy. he beat Cornelius Lock this summer and then he is fighting this guy. Give him some opponents more his size. 23-0 with 19 KOs before this fight should have dictated a little bit better opponent.

Hopefully the next fight is better.

Donaire vs Sidorenko is up next

How is this PPV worthy?

It isn't. But Garcia is a good prospect. Donaire is ranked in the top 10 p4p, though I don't think he deserves it. Soto vs Antillon is 2 legit top 10 ring ranked lightweights.

The card originally was to be headlined by Chavez Jr.

Round 1, Donaire landing big right hands and Sidorenko goes down late in the round from a big right hand. This is going to end pretty soon.

Punch stats are often misleading, but round 1 wasn't the case here. Donaire landed 25 of 39 power punches.

Round 2, Sidorenko stayed defensive and didn't get hit too much until late in the round when Donaire landed a couple of left hooks.

After 2 it is 20-17 for Donaire on my card. Round 1 10-8 Donaire, round 2 10-9 Donaire

Round 3 10-8 Donaire

Sidorenko threw a weak right hand and Donaire landed a counter left hook right on the button. Sidorenko gets up. After the round he looks beat up. Serious swelling and bruising around right eye. This won't go past 5 rounds at most.

Just got done watching the doc Thrilla in Manila on Comcast.I'd highly recommend it.Sad to see what has become of Smokin' Joe.

Round 4 Sidorenko gets hit with left hook and then very big right hand. He goes to a knee and ref waives it off after counting to 6 or so. Sidorenko's nose was busted up and bleeding. Right eye busted up and bleeding.

Sidorenko 34 years old and past his best, but Donaire came out and did what he needed to do in this fight at 118 pounds. Onto Montiel it is for Donaire!!!! That should be a damn good fight.

Thanks man, I will definitely look for that. Seeing the titans of the sport in their advanced age is depressing about 95% of the time.

is the soto fight next? when is the alvarez fight?

The film was Frazier's take on the fight and how he helped Ali when he was coming out of exile.only to be stabbed in the back.Interesting take on both men is provided by Larry Holmes.Ferdie Pacheco came off as a sanctimonious prick,however.

Ferdie always seems like a prick to me.

Ali's treatment of Frazier is troubling for any boxing fan. Frazier did right by Ali only for Ali to go over the line in the promotion of their fights. He said things that were hurtful and that sting Frazier to this day (my guess).

soto fight is next. use the link and watch it if it works for you. 2 top 10 lightweights.

Alvarez fight is scheduled for HBO latino at 1230 am eastern, so 90 mins from now.

You're take on Frazier is spot on my man.Doesn't Montiel have a fight next month?I remember Benitez being in line for a shot at Hagler,only to be derailed by Mustapha Hamsho.Don't see Montiel losing,however.

Yeah Montiel has a fight next month that is a stay busy fight. I believe he and Donaire were already tentatively scheduled for February or March in a fight that is going to be explosive. Someone is getting blown out when Montiel meets Donaire.

I'd put my money on Nonito.

i dont know why soto has never really stepped up in competition. he is a solid fighter who makes exciting fights. he has had a title for a while now too. he needs to step up and fight the top 5 fighters in the division.

Montiel looked amazing vs Hasegawa. I'm not sure who I will pick in that one. I'll probably change my mind a few times before they fight.

round 1 10-9 Soto
antillon putting ont he pressure. Soto fighting alot off of the ropes. In close landing snapping right uppercuts. At distance he landed some jabs and right hands. Antillon trying to make this a phone booth fight and Soto using his legs. Antillon landed 20 out of 60 something and Soto 40 or so shots per punch stats given.

round 2 Antillon still stalking. Soto landing more clean shots. Antillon doing some decent bodywork in close.

10-9 Soto, 20-18 after 2 rounds

Antillon is trying to wear him down but Soto is landing too cleanly thus far.

Soto katsidis would be a fun fight. Soto/Rios would be a blast as well.

soto is just being more effective every round. antillon is doing alright but soto is just doing better.

soto is winning the fight but he doesn't look comfortable with the pressure. Antillon warned for a low blow (that is a few already).
