So it's off the Wilder-Washington undercard.

An interesting and potentially fun heavyweight match-up has been announced for March 17 in Reading, Pennsylvania, as Amir Mansour and Travis Kauffman will clash in what should be a fan-friendly fight.

This should be a good fight but I'm not sure what Mansour has left. He must be 43 or 44 by now. Kauffman is big & has some decent skills. He hasn't exactly been active since the Arreola fight. I think one stay busy bout I think is all he has had. This is a tough one to call but I'm going with Kauffman on this one. Mansour will press the fight early but if Kauffman can weather the storm I think he take this by late KO as Mansour tends to tire by the half way point of fights...

Kauffman seems more like top 40-50 to me.

Top 40-50ish is a bout right. Both guys are in that range. That really isn't a bad place to be. Win a couple regional belts & fights that have ranking implications & one can move up the list in one of the 4 governing bodies...
