Stick to fighting…

That’s the advice from me to myself regarding predictions. Yep, The Ohio State sure looked good Saturday.
I don’t know where all the hate is coming from. Todd Boeckman found Brian Robiskie for a touchdown to make it 14-10 USC and then the power went out. Wait, you say it was called back and from that point on, the Buckeyes showed NO heart at all? Oy.
Anyway, back in my field of “expertise,” I kinda showed I know what I’m talking about. Vernon Forrest took back his title from Sergio Mora. Timothy Bradley had no issues with Edner Cherry. And Juan Manuel Marquez took care of Joel Casamayor.
I didn’t see a KO coming with JMM, but that eliminated the predicted controversy. The fight I was looking forward to the most was Nate Campbell and Joan Guzman. As reported, Guzman was 3.5 pounds over the limit. Campbell was still game for the fight but at about 6:30 CST, Guzman backed out. Wha??
Poor Nate. It was one of the few chances he would have gotten to prove himself and this happens.
In the local scene, the Lawton boys, Grady Brewer and George Tahdooahnippah were both victorious Friday night.
Oklahoma City boys Kyle Sherman and Noah Zuhdi both posted wins as well.
Kid Carson Jones, who is the main event of Saturday’s card, has a new opponent. Originally scheduled to fight Michi Munoz, he is now fighting Donovan Castaneda.
I’m pumped to see how things work out at the Cox Convention Center. I’ve grown comfortable at Remington Park, so it’ll be interesting to see how this set up is and how the atmosphere is.
