And it's Prizefighter this week
Anyone on the ranked of 16th or below may apply here: (preferably 1 fighter per Manager).

The Prizefighter Champion will have a guaranteed title shot at either the IBO or the MGM...(And even the Light Middleweight title if he belongs to that weight).

So there's lot of options for the PF Champ(s) this season.

So Monzon agrees his dream fight against Sugar Ray Robinson.
Goodnight Jackson offers himself to the PF tourney - he might be a Light Middle, but he wants to get stuck in.

Irish Dempsey will fight Andy Lee this week.

Nino Benvenuti wants a shot at Floyd Mayweather's Jr. Middleweight Title, that's one form of starting the one upping Hopkins tour.

If Floyd doesn't go for that, Nino will fight Carlos Santos.

Harry Greb wants Terry Norris...a stay at the MGM Grand sounds nice. If he doesn't go for that (which he probably won't), then Greb would like GGG as well. If both turn it down he'll fight Ike Quartey.

Hearns is open to challenges from Nino, FMJ, GGG, Fitz, Duran, Williams or B-Hop.

Charley Burley will fight Arthur Abraham.

Roy Jones Jr calls out Mike McCallum.

Why him? You already took away RJJ's unbeaten run, lets hope you're not going to become some kind of bogeyman for my boys.

But for a weird two weeks Holman has been my best performer by far this season and I was champing at the bit to get him another title shot once he got ranked again. Burley can get a shot if though if he wins though.

Mayweather would like to face ODLH

The idea that Nino Benvenuti, a highly rated full MW wants to pick on a fighter who's best weight is much lower than his own makes perfect sense if you are attracted to unacceptable jabberwocky. Answer is of course NO

What Nino needs to do is put on his big boy pants....and face his Daddy....Barnyard Hopkins.


Golovkin will face Philadelphia Jackie O.

Nino Benvenuti vs Carlos Santos it is then. Hopkins only managed a MD win over Santos. Nino will win via UD or KO.

With Nino running a sprint again for the umpteenth time....Hopkins will face Ike Quartey.


Tune in next week when The Executioner forces Nino to publicly "Line Dance" for the fans.

That's next week...Week 11...when Hopkins will have been ONE UPPED by Benvenuti

Yeah sure. Holman Williams will hold wins over all three of my guys

Leonard offers the shot to Fitzsimmons.

Greb's challenge to Terry Norris for the MGM Grand Cup is still out should Norris have the balls to accept.

Quartey was the planned CPU backup, but since Buzz has swooped in and chosen him for Hopkins. Greb will fight Canelo Alvarez instead...the fight with Norris is still the preference.

Charles will fight John Duddy

Hagler vs Duran???

Langford wants in prizefighter tournament. Otherwise he will fight Chris Eubank.


Oscar vs Manny Pacquiao

Emile Griffith calls out Floyd Mayweather (again), BoxBuzz.

I'm trying to give Ketch the taste for mammal blood so he'll take on CPU Jim Doran.

Hmm I don't think ODLH is Emile Griffiths Initials. We are looking for the Oscar.

So this fight that you suggest, can not take place this week. Though I"m sure it would be a fine fight.

Looks to me like ODLH is fighting Manny P

You make a good point. However we want to give a higher ranked lhw a shot first....
CREASE.....we see Julian Jackson is available for a thumping. Can that fight be made?

IF Floyd survives Jackson....we would fight Griffith next. If Jackson avoids Floyd....we will avoid Griffith.

But we want to clown Jackson..as a warm up for a real fight.......Griffith is a real fight...and a bit scary and risky......and our insurance premiums will go up if we take that fight this week.

Fair enough. Though Jackson has put himself into this week's Prizefighter I believe. Will have to decide if that's the best place for Emile as well I guess.

Unless you wanna do Griffith-Hopkins? Has a nice ring to it. Or what about Griffith-Langford, Sweet P?
