Zappa

Post by Lethaleigh76 »

Good to see young Lenny off to the states again to fight a tough Mexican, his exposure should be massive considering its on the undercard of Darchiyan V Guerrerro, and Abraham V Dirrell. :TU:

looks like a decent card there, hopefully Zappa will get televised this time.

Gamaliel Diaz has been in with some great fighters and even has a 12 round win over Robert Guerrero. This does look to be a test for Lenny.

Darchinyan's opponent on the other hand... :o

Diaz has been in with some really good opponents but on paper Zappa looks too big for him. Diaz is a feather/super feather moving up.

* Change of opponent for Zappa

Zappa takes on Ganoy conqueror Fernando Angulo on the showtime card in March. Vics fight is elevated to main event and Lenny is the co-feature. Dirrell pulled out of his S6 fight with Abraham because of a back injury.

So both Vic and Lennys fights will be shown on mainevent. Angulo is an experienced guy with a tricky style and is pretty tough. He iced Ganoy when Ranee walked on to a right hand. H has gone 12 rds with Juan Diaz.

Not an easy fight for Lenny but here's the thing...Angulo is a serial offender when it comes to not making weight. He was way over for Ganoy and never got close to making weight in his fight after that on the Nate/Funeka undercard.

I'm guessing Angulo wouldn't have had much notice for this fight...the IBO belt became vacant with the death of the sth african fighter who held it. So I'm doubtful of Angulo making 135.

It's a test for Lenny, especially if he has to go 12 rds with Angulo. But he is going well and can win it if everything falls in to place. Good luck to Zappa.

I will buy this providing that Main event and Shaw realize that this is a $19.95 ppv.

Darchinyan is fighting a no one and Lenny just isn't quite PPV yet.

This is great news for Lenny and IMO his toughest opponent to date.

If he wins it will be another IBO strap hanging around an Australian's waist.

Unlucky mate, they're trying to flog it for $39.95. No way I'll be buying it at that price. What a farce, Rodrigo Guerrero is a Fenech Fight Night type opponent...

Guerrero has a win over Juan Alberto Rosas, who won an IBF Super Flyweight eliminator in his last bout. He can't be that bad.

Angulo has done it again...came in at 138, three pounds over!

Unreal. So that's 3 out of his last 5 fights where he hasn't got close to making weight. And in the process he has blown a chance at an IBF #2 spot and an IBO title.
