In the main event, Miguel Cotto wanted one more chance in his career and he got it. It became clear very early in this fight that Rodriguez had no business being in the ring with him.
Wladimir Klitschko (61-3, 51 KOs) continued his dominance in the Heavyweight division while defending his RING, IBF, WBO, and WBA titles Saturday against Alexander Povetkin (26-1, 18 KOs).
Once again, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. lost, according to what most people thought leaving the Stub Hub Center last night in Carson, CA. The arena was made up mostly of Chavez Jr. fans who quickly turned their backs on him when it became clear that Chavez Jr. won a unanimous decision.
On Saturday, September 14 live from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, NV, Saul “El Canelo” Alvarez (42-1-1, 30 KOs) suffered his first defeat at the hands of Floyd “Money” Mayweather (45-0, 26 KOs).
Floyd “Money” Mayweather (44-0, 26 KOs) says that “There's no blueprint on how to beat me.” Although many have failed in their attempts to beat him, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (42-0-1, 30 KOs) can learn from some of the mistakes made by those who lost to Floyd, as well as from some of the methods used to win rounds over him.
In a bout that may very well steal the show as the co-main event for Canelo Alvarez vs. Floyd Mayweather, Danny Garcia (26-0, 16 KOs) will have to use his amateur background to force Lucas Matthysse (34-2, 32 KOs) to make mistakes; while Matthysse should begin the fight by pressing the action early and making it ugly.
As his third-round knockout of Matthew Macklin demonstrates, Gennady Golovkin (27-0, 24 KOs) is a top contender. However, as his competition gets tougher, will anyone be able to stop him?
