Boxing This Weekend

Another weekend without any big names. The most significant match this Saturday is the Carlos Molina-Cornelius Bundrage fight for the IBF junior middleweight title. It will be televised on ESPN Deportes. That is a horrible fight matched only by an equally horrid undercard. There are two women fighting and sometimes I look online to see if they are remotely hot (Joselyn Arroyo comes to mind) but I didn't bother when I saw that female match would be contested in the heavyweight division :( Unimas will televise the Jorge Paez Jr-Aaron Herrera match. In London, there is a fight with mild interest among hardcore fans with Lee Selby taking on Joel Brunker in an IBF featherweight title eliminator. Anthony Joshua is on the undercard taking on Denis Bakhtov. This looks to be another baby step for Joshua to pad his record. Another stunner to match last week's return of 46-year old John Michael Johnson is the return of 37-year old Steve Forbes who takes on Augustin Orozco. Forbes has lost five straight going back to 2011. Again, nothing really to analyze here. Only fight worth watching is Selby-Brunker. I can only assume it will be on Boxnation.
