Now What?

In the wake of probably the best welterweight fight in eight years, we now are left with the task of rebuilding our division depth chart and potential fights.

First, Floyd Mayweather retired a few months back, leaving the top spot for Miguel Cotto, who was stopped in the 10th round in Las Vegas Saturday night by Antonio Margarito in a terrific fight that was a wonderful representation of the skills of two fighters, as well as heart and the raw brutality of the sport. For a fan, it was just fun to watch.

In reevaluating the welterweight division, let's start with Margarito. Forget which organization recognizes which fighter. Margarito, while technically the WBA champion, is the No. 1 welterweight in the world. Call him THE world champion if you may, but he's the best. To be considered the best, all welterweights now need to go through him.

Aside from a Cotto rematch or a too lucrative to pass up fight with Oscar De La Hoya, Margarito's top challengers include Paul Williams, Shane Mosley, or the winner of Saturday's bout between Joshua Clottey and Zab Judah.

Personally, my preference would be a rematch with Williams, simply because Williams is hot and coming off a revenge blowout of Carlos Quintana and doesn't have his next fight signed yet, and there is some intrigue involved because when Williams beat Margarito in July 2007, it was Margarito's first welterweight loss in 11 years. And, it was a very close fight in which Williams dominated the first half of the fight, only to see Margarito come storming back over the second half of the fight.

Will it happen? Probably not. Williams is still 6-foot-2 and still a southpaw, and coming off a devastating knockout win. Margarito can beat Williams, but it's a huge risk with a Cotto rematch a possibility early in 2009.

Mosley would be interesting, but Sugar Shane has a HBO date in the September against Ricardo Mayorga at junior middleweight. Mosley is now 36, and while he can probably still make welterweight, would he have the motivation to do it for a fight with Margarito?

I'm not saying Margarito-Mosley doesn't happen, but it's unlikely and even if it did it would be sometime in '09.

Which leaves the winner of Clottey-Judah, scheduled for Las Vegas this weekend on HBO. Let me start by saying I'm not thrilled by this fight in the least bit. First of all, the fact that it's for a belt is ludicrous, because it's the belt Margarito beat Kermit Cintron for in April, and then vacated so he could face Cotto.

Secondly, I've seen Clottey five or six times, and I will not doubt that he is a solid, top 10ish type fighter, he's not one of the top three or four fighters at 147 pounds. He squeaked by Richard Gutierrez by majority decision in July 2006, which earned him a shot at Margarito. If there ever was a night Margarito was vulnerable it was that night, but after a fast start Clottey fell apart and blamed it on a broken hand, losing a wide decision. He responded with wins over Diego Corrales, Felix Flores, Shamone Alvarez and Jose Luis Cruz. Corrales was a big name because what he did at junior lightweight and lightweight, but he was moving up two weight classes and while a high-profile win for Clottey, he was hardly fighting a great welterweight. Flores was an unremarkable (i.e. boring) 12-round decision, as was his decision over Alvarez, which earned him a manadory shot at the IBF title. He blew out Cruz in a stay busy fight back in April.

But let's face it: Clottey is fighting for the IBF's belt because he's promoted by Bob Arum, who has masterfully manuevered himself into the position of unofficial promoter of the welterweight division. Arum knew if Margarito beat Cintron in April that Margarito would immediately vacate for the shot at Cotto. That would leave the belt vacant and give Clottey a shot at the belt. Arum then searched around for a TV date, found Judah, who was a big enough name to get HBO to sign on board.

Then, there's Judah. Since beating Cory Spinks for the top spot in the division in February 2005, Judah is 3-3 with one no contest, with two of those wins coming in his last two fights, after he lost three in a row to Carlos Baldomir, Mayweather and Cotto, with the no decision again Ruben Galvan thrown in. His two wins since getting stopped by Cotto in June 2007 were over Edwin Vasquez and Ryan Davis. Who?

It's amazing how fast Judah vaulted into the IBF's No. 3 position when HBO accepted him as an opponent for
Clottey.

That being said, should Judah beat Clottey, a fight with Margarito becomes probably an attractive one for camp Margarito because of Judah's name. If Clottey wins, what interest would be out there for a Margarito-Clottey rematch?

So, what will happen. If I had to guess there's a few scenarios:

* Judah wins, and Margarito faces Judah in November or December.
* Clottey wins, and Margarito does get Williams in line for a rematch in November or December.
* Margarito opts for a "victory lap" fight, maybe against someone like Luis Collazo.

As for Cotto, who I believe is still the No. 2 man in the division, he said upon returning to his native Puerto Rico that he'd like to get back in the ring before the end of the year. That's pretty ambitious considering the nature of his first professional defeat.

Does he take an easy fight in Puerto Rico to rebuild his confidence? There are names out there, including Jesus Soto Karass, who recently blew out David Estrada and is also promoted by Arum, or Demetrius Hopkins, who also was promoted by Arum. Kermit Cintron, who is planning a fall comeback fight after his own blowout loss to Margarito could be interesting, especially considering both are from Puerto Rico. Cintron, who is a promotional free agent, is probably the stage of his career where he'll take the most money possible.

As far as Williams goes, what does he do if he can't get a Margarito rematch? He's got a mandatory looming against someone named Michael Jennings. Yawn. There's been talk of him moving all the way up to middleweight for a fight with Kelly Pavlik or Winky Wright. He can wait for the Judah-Clottey winner himself. Either way, given how much trouble Arum and Williams promoter Dan Goossen have dealing with one another, I wouldn't count on Williams getting a fight with a Top Rank fighter any time soon.

The other name that hasn't been mentioned in Andre Berto, who also holds the WBC belt, which is an absolute joke. It's amazing that some consider the WBC's "green" belt as the most prestigious of the belts, because that organization is as corrupt as any and has been doing it right under everyone's noses for years. I love Berto (22-0, 19 KOs) as an up-and-comer, but who has he beaten to deserve any world title claim?

I don't know one person who'd ever seen his last opponent, Miguel Rodriguez, fight and that fight - a seven round blowout for Berto - was for a vacant title? Berto has fought nothing but no-hopers and shop-warn fighters like David Estrada and Cosme Rivera, and both of those guys gave Berto trouble. I don't blame promoter Lou DiBella for keeping Berto away from dangerous Top 10 opposition, because he's not ready yet, but to call him a world champion is absurd.

This all being said, Berto defends his belt against Steve Forbes on the Mosley-Mayorga undercard. Would anybody be surprised to see Forbes outbox and frustrate Berto for a huge upset.

There was a time not too long ago that the welterweight division was considered the best, and the deepest in boxing. In 2008, there's been some very good fights, as well, but with Mayweather's retirement, Mosley's age and Cotto's recent loss and some of the luster is off the top half of the division. And a check through the depth at 147 reveals a lot of no-names as well.

No question, however, Margarito-Cotto was a special night for boxing and for the welterweight division, but what's next remains a huge mystery.

Imagine Pacquiao vs. Hamed

In all the hub-hub surrounding Manny Pacquaio’s supposed ascension to the pound-for-pound top spot on the basis of his eighth-round stoppage of David Diaz for one version of the lightweight championship two weeks ago, my thoughts boxing wise have turned to a name from the not-so-distant past.

Remember Prince Naseem Hamed?

Go back to the late 1990s, up until April 2001, and Hamed was easily the hottest thing under welterweight in boxing — including Floyd Mayweather, Jr.

Back then Pacquaio was a no-name flyweight fighting for peanuts in the Philippines.

Naz had the flashy ring-entrances, the personality and the knockout punch that set the British boxing world on fire long before he knocked out Kevin Kelley in November 1997 in his U.S. debut in Madison Square Garden. It was after that when he became a sensation in the States as well. A can’t miss superstar.

When Marco Antonio Barrera and Erik Morales fought their memorable first fight in 2000, that set the stage for huge fights to come for both against the Prince, as both Mexicans were set to move up from junior featherweight for that purpose.

As it turned out, Barrera exposed almost every flaw Hamed possessed when he undressed and embarrassed him in Las Vegas on April 4, 2001, on the way to a unanimous 12-round decision.

Forget the 12-round decision Hamed earned in his comeback fight against Manny Calvo in London a year later, his career ended that night against Barrera at the ripe old age of 27.

All the hype, all the flash and all the superstardom vanished just like that. It was just the beginning of a long string of negative nights for Hamed, who years after his last fight served time in a British prison for reckless driving that caused a serious injury to another driver.

There are those who followed Hamed from early in his career in Great Britain who say the decline started long before Barrera, however. He was at his best when he destroyed the likes of Juan Polo Perez, Steve Robinson, Daniel Alicea, Manuel Medina and Tom Johnson in a stretch from 1995-97. By the time he invaded the States for the Kelley fight, he wasn’t the same fighter. His lifestyle outside of the ring was affecting his performance in the gym and in his fights.

The same fighter who was knocked down by Kelley and taken the distance by the likes of Wayne McCullough and Cesar Soto was not the Naz that the Brits knew four or five years earlier.

I’m not sure I buy that, however.

First of all, his competition was much better when he left England. Nothing against the Aliceas, Medinas and Johnsons, who most American fight fans had actually heard of as opposed to the rest of Hamed’s early opposition, but Kelley and McCullough are very legitimate, world championship caliber fighters.

It’s hard for me to believe that Hamed was worse when he started being trained by Emanuel Steward than he was by his local trainers back in England.

And finally, Barrera was the only great fighter that Hamed ever fought in his career. He’s the only one close to being a Hall of Famer.

How do I evaluate the career of Prince Naseem Hamed?

I’m tempted to call him an absolute unadulterated fraud.

When finally defeated by a better fighter, his precious ego couldn’t handle it so he took his ball — not to mention millions — and went home.

But there is no question that his departure hurt the sport.

Yes, he was one of the main culprits who took advantage of HBO contracts that enabled him to fight nobodies like Soto and Augie Sanchez and Viyani Bungu for millions of dollars, along with the likes of Roy Jones and Mayweather, which definitely wasn’t good for boxing.

But he was a name, and the Barrera fight was supposed to be the first of a long string of huge fights that would have attracted a lot of attention — and fans — in a time when fans were making a mass exodus from boxing.
Imagine the slugfest he might have had with Morales. Like Barrera, Morales was a better boxer than Hamed, but could he have stayed away from a war, especially with the way the Prince would have goaded him in the prefight buildup. He could have eventually fought Marquez. Who knows? Maybe a super, super fight with Mayweather, who was fighting at 130, just four pounds north of Hamed’s 126, would have taken place.

And this was a thin, thin featherweight too. In his entire career he never fought about 126 pounds. Who’s to say he couldn’t have moved up the way Barrera, Morales, Marquez and Pacquaio have through the years?
Goodness, could you imagine an all-British superfight with Ricky Hatton?

But the fight that almost makes this writer’s mouth water was one that could have eventually happened between the Prince and the Pac-Man.

When Hamed fought Kelley in ’97, Pacquaio was still a year away from winning the WBC flyweight title.

But had Hamed still been around, this is a fight that eventually would have happened. Probably at 126, too. In November 2003, Pacquaio embarrassed Barrera in his featherweight debut. At that point, Hamed was just 29.
Who would have won?

It depends. Pacquaio is a better fighter in 2008 than he was in ’03. Back then he was a seek and destroyer and usually it worked. But something about him changed when he drew with Marquez in May 2004 and lost to Morales in ’05. He developed a Plan B.

Yes, he still likes to seek and destroy, as a limited but courage-filled fighter like David Diaz can attest, but he can box his way around the ring to set up the eventual destruction. And if he doesn’t come, he’s perfectly capable and willing to accept a decision.

It’s hard to imagine, Naz Hamed would have stood much of a chance against this Manny Pacquaio, who is a better boxer and a much busier fighter. Remember Hamed was never a volume puncher. He was much more awkward than he was fundamentally sound. Everything was about the bomb.

Maybe in ’03, however, Pacquaio would have wanted to test his machismo against Hamed. Who really was the hardest hitting 5-foot-4 fighter in the world?

Such a fight may have been electric.

Which gets back to my gut feeling that Naseem Hamed cheated the sport of boxing.

That, above all the else will be his legacy.

Mayweather Retires, Few Care

The tree fell in the empty forest, crashing and thudding the sport of boxing once again.

But nobody noticed.

In many ways, Floyd Mayweather, Jr. has been the perfect symbolic figure for all that ails a sport used to be part of the American fabric but now toils in obscurity. And it’s really not any fault of Mayweather, a one-time five-division world champion who Friday announced his retirement at age 31 with his record standing at a perfect 39-0 with 25 knockouts.

Let’s start by saying there’s no need to pass around a hat to take a collection for another punch-drunk pugilist who fought until they wouldn’t let him anymore. Floyd Mayweather, Jr. made a ton of money in boxing, and by all accounts, he still has quite a bit of it as well as the ability to speak and make rational thoughts. The fact that he’s made so much money and still has his health is part of the reason why he claimed he’s getting out at this time.

Of course, there are skeptics out there that are saying that this is a ploy. He’s angling for more money in his September rematch with Oscar De La Hoya and is using the threat of retirement as a part of the negotiation. Others are saying that he might take a year or two off, but he’ll back. They all come back eventually, especially when they have plenty of quality fighting years left.

But let’s assume that this is for real and Mayweather stays retired, and take some time to examine his career and, more importantly, his legacy.

Why exactly do so few people care about his retirement? Why aren’t there cries about how horrible it is for the sport, another death blow to a sport firmly implanted in its coffin?

This is the No. 1 performer in boxing today, and he’s every bit as talented and dominating in his sport as a Kobe Bryant is in the NBA or a Tiger Woods is in golf. I know, not as many people recognize this because until he fought De La Hoya, appeared on Dancing with the Stars, and most recently Wrestlemania, most sports fans couldn’t have picked Floyd Mayweather out of a lineup.

But he is really, really good, a sure-fire Hall of Famer, and a fighter that should be recognized as one of the all-time greats in a sport that has produced high-profile athletic superstars like Joe Louis, Sugar Ray Robinson, Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard.

I’ve been following boxing since the late 1970s, and aside from Ray Leonard, I wouldn’t put another fighter in my lifetime in Mayweather’s class.

The problem is that boxing is a sport that is so marginal in today’s sports conscience in the United States, it doesn’t really matter if the best fighter in the last 30 years is retiring in his prime. Whether Mayweather retired or fought for another 10 years, making millions and millions of dollars and winning a dozen more titles, it wasn’t going to hurt or help boxing to any significance.

There are a lot of reasons for this. In no particular order, here are a few:

* Mayweather is simply too good to attract the attention of fans outside the hard-core boxing enthusiasts. He fought 39 times, and it’s fair to say that 37 of those fights were lopsided victories, whether by knockout or decision. And in the other two, he eked out a tougher than expected 12-round decision against Jose Luis Castillo in a lightweight title fight in April 2002, and he won a split decision over De La Hoya last May. But pool 100 people who watched both of those fights, and 80 percent of them would say that even in those fights, there was no doubt that Mayweather won.

Another thing related to this is Mayweather always went by the philosophy that a win is a win, no matter how he did it. Yes, there were times he looked exciting and fan-pleasing, but plenty of others where he was content to out-box an overmatched opponent and take a decision.

As for his other opponents, he hasn’t fought a collection of stiffs over the last 11 years. Genero Hernandez, Diego Corrales, Arturo Gatti, Zab Judah and Ricky Hatton were all fighters with considerable pedigree when they fought Mayweather, and all were soundly beaten and in some cases humiliated by Mayweather.

In many ways this is what plagued and earned Roy Jones, Jr. a lot of criticism in the hay-day of his career as a middleweight, super middleweight and light heavyweight superstar, as well. The big difference is that eventually Jones crashed and burned when his extraordinary skills deteriorated in his late 30s. Mayweather never let that happen.

In comparing Mayweather to Leonard, while the competition that Mayweather has fought has been good, Leonard’s was outstanding. Unfortunately for Mayweather, Wilfredo Benitez, Robert Duran, Thomas Hearns and Marvin Hagler didn’t fight in his era.

While he proved on TV last year that he could dance pretty well on stage, in the ring, Mayweather just didn’t have as many dance partners that could keep up with him.

* Boxing today just isn’t what it was in previous decades in terms of exposure, and it starts in the amateurs, most notably the Olympic Games.

When Leonard was an Olympic champion in 1976, everyone of his fights was as much a fixture to the ABC Olympic coverage as were Bruce Jenner’s races on the track or Nadia Comaneci's balance beam routines in gymnastics. Amateur fighters didn’t have to wear head gear those days and the stark differences between amateur boxing and pro boxing weren’t nearly as great as they are today.

Fans watching those Montreal Games were left with the impression that Ray Leonard was a boxing star even before he turned professional. In turn, every time he fought professionally early in his career, TV networks raced for the rights to cover it, because they knew he was a household name and people would watch.

Such was not the case by the time Mayweather came along. Really since NBC took over coverage of the Summer Olympics in 1988, it has continued to place less and less emphasis on boxing every four years. Like was the case in 2000 and ’04, Olympic boxing in the 1996 Atlanta Games was a second class citizen. It would have been impossible for even an American gold medalist, as was the case with Philadelphian David Reid, to get the kind of push enjoyed by Leonard or any of his contemporaries.

As for Mayweather, it didn’t help that he lost controversially in the semifinals and had to settle for a bronze.

Because of his abilities and the fact that Top Rank and Bob Arum signed him and featured him often on TV early in his career, Mayweather received much more a financial and publicity boost than most amateurs do when turning pro, but with much less fanfare than used to be the case.

* Because of the way the economic scale is tilted in professional boxing today, there was very little incentive for Mayweather or the people around him to make him into the type of figure that people could relate to or recognize, especially early in his career. It didn’t matter that he wasn’t a household name or thought of as a great athlete on par with those in the major sports, Mayweather was still paid like one.

He was signed by Top Rank, one of the highest-paying promoters in the sport. All of his fights were on TV. By the time he fought for his first pro title in 1998, he was being paid handsomely by HBO. This man was making millions long before he started to gain mainstream notoriety or started to fight in pay-per-view main events.

Boxing rewards fighters for a lot of reasons, and ignores others for a lot of reasons. Not making too much of a political analogy, the reality is that the differences between the upper class in the sport and the middle and lower classes are as stark as those that have existed in everyday American life over the last seven or eight years.

Mayweather was one of the well-paid elite. Fighting for survival hasn’t been part of his equation throughout most of his career, and boxing is a sport driven by the appeal of such stories.

* Like it or not, personalities sell too. While Mayweather’s background and personality might be relatively indicative of the modern superstar athlete today, it’s not a big seller to the type of fan that has paid for boxing in this country.

Firstly, his background. Yes, he comes from a family of fighters, from his father to his uncles, but the Mayweathers aren’t exactly the Waltons. With apologies to Floyd’s uncle Jeff, the Mayweather family is about as likable as the Mansons.

Floyd Sr. was an average fighter at best, who served time in prison for selling drugs. He’s by all accounts a very good trainer, but the only thing he seemingly does better is talk about how great a trainer he is.

Uncle Roger Mayweather, Floyd Jr.’s current trainer, was a very good pro boxer and a two-division world champion, but he almost always played the villain role. He’s also pretty proud of his own ability to train fighters and like his brother has done time in prison.

As for Floyd Jr., he is hardly the modest type, is known for his extravagant lifestyle, his bling and the posse that travels with him wherever he goes. Throw in multiple scraps with the law over domestic violence charges and a bar fight assault, which has led to numerous stints on probation, and it’s safe to say boxing isn’t the only family pastime that he’s carried on.

As far of sports in general, especially boxing, we don’t expect our fighters to be saints or choir boys, but some make it very difficult to root for.

No doubt, we haven’t heard the last of Floyd Joy Mayweather, Jr., who through the years has gone by the nicknames “Pretty Boy Floyd” and “Money Mayweather.” He may or may not fight again.
But guys like him crave the spotlight and being told how great he is. Money or not, ego drives many a boxing career, and it’s hard to imagine too many with larger egos than Mayweather.

As a boxing fan, however, his retirement is a reason for considerable sadness.

Not necessarily because he won’t be fighting De La Hoya again, or an attractive opponent like Miguel Cotto in the future. But rather because so few people care.

Friday Night Update

Cards in Philadelphia and Reading highlighted the local boxing scene on Friday night.

At the Blue Horizon, Philadelphia featherweight Eric Hunter scored a third-round TKO stoppage of Jules Blackwell. For the 21-year-old Hunter (9-1, 4 KOs), it was his first fight since August 2007 and his first fight in Philadelphia since losing a split decision to Carlos Vinan in January 2007 at the New Alhambra. Blackwell (7-1-2, 2 KOs), a 27-year-old southpaw from Phoenixville, PA, lost for the first time although his other two fights this year have been draws.

In a scheduled six-round welterweight bout, Philadelphia's Steve Upsher improved to 17-1-1 with 5 KOs, as he knocked out Jaime Morales (4-7) at 1:37 of the first round. Upsher has fought 19 of his 20 career fights at the Blue Horizon.

Cruiserweight Ran Nakash scored a second-round TKO over James Porter in another scheduled six-rounder. Nakash (13-0, 9 KOs), a 29-year-old from Israel, fought for the fifth time at the Blue Horizon.

Other Results:
Cruiserweights- Reshawn Scott (1-0) SD4 over Kamarah Pasley (0-3)

Summer Season gets Underway

Starting Friday night, this promises to be a very busy month for followers of the local boxing scene, with cards, major and minor throughout Southeastern PA and in New Jersey. Here's a rundown of the schedule to date:

Reading, Friday

At the Sovereign Performing Arts Center in Reading on Friday, in a bout promoted by Bob Arum's Top Rank and televised by Telefutura, unbeaten lightweight prospect Urbano Antillon (22-0, 15 KOs) takes on Jose Leonardo Cruz (12-2-2, 8 KOS) in the main event. Also on the televised portion of the card, veterans Marco Antonio Rubio (41-4-1, 36 KOs) and Freddy Cuevas (26-9, 17 KOs) square off in a middleweight bout. Rubio has been mentioned as a possible Kelly Pavlik world title challenger in the fall.

Antillon, originally from Mexico but living in California, is coming off a first-round KO of Bobby Pacquaio and appears to be a legitimate prospect.

Not sure why this card is in Reading. Of note, however, Harold Cintron, the older brother of former welterweight title-holder Kermit Cintron, who is a Reading resident, will make his professional debut in a junior welterweight bout. Unbeaten featherweight Lucian Gonzalez (5-0, 4 KOS), also a Puerto Rican residing in Reading is on the undercard.

Philadelphia (Blue Horizon), Friday

Unbeaten cruiserweight prospect Adam Harris (10-0, 7 KOs), of Worcester, Mass. but a recent Philly fight staple, headlines against journeyman Harvey Jolley in the eight-round co-feature. Featherweight Jules Blackwell (7-0, 2 KOs), of Phoenixville, Pa, is scheduled to fight in the eight-round co-feature, but an opponent hasn't been named.

On paper, this is not a high-quality card by any means, promoted by Vernoca Michael's Blue Horizon Boxing Promotions, with veteran matchmaker Don Elbaum putting the fights together. At Blue Horizon prices, this is a tough sell with a much better show in Reading the same night, a TV card on ESPN2, and then two TV cards on Satuday.

Atlantic City (Boardwalk Hall), Saturday

This HBO-televised card is headlined by Kelly Pavlik's middleweight title defense against Gary Lockett, a main event that is probably a mismatch, considering that few in the states know anything of Lockett (30-1, 21 KOs), who is from Wales and is promoted by Enzo Calzaghe. This mandatory is supposed to be a breather for Pavlik (33-0, 29 KOs), but who knows? Maybe this turns out to be surprisingly good.

I love the other televised fight, a junior lightweight title bout between Daniel Ponce De Leon (34-1, 30- KOs) and unbeaten challenger Juan Manuel Lopez (21-0, 19 KOs). This is a classic matter of top-flight Golden Boy Promotions young champion (Ponce De Leon) against rising young Top Rank prospect (Lopez).

Off TV isn't so bad either. Unbeaten junior lightweight Kevin Mitchell (26-0, 19 KOs), of Great Britain, fights in a 12-rounder with Walter Estrada (34-5, 23 KOs) in Mitchell's first fight in the U.S. Unbeaten prospects like Demetrio Soto, Jorge Diaz, Qa'id Muhamman, Hylon Williams Jr. and Danny Garcia are also fighting to be name foes on the undercard. Williams (1-0), of Houston, and Garcia (6-0, KOs), of Philadelphia, are probably the top two products of the American amateur system to turn pro in the last year, and both could easily have been competing this summer in the Olympics in China.

Scranton, June 13

The Catholic Youth Center in Scranton will host a card promoted by Duva Boxing and Northeast Boxing, and televised on ESPN2's Friday night fights. There's not a lot of star power on the card, but it could be a very good bang of the consumer's buck.

Two 10-round co-features fight to be the TV fights, including one featuring welterweight prospect James De La Rosa (15-0, 11 KOs) against a not yet named opponent. A 20-year-old Texan originally from Mexico, De La Rosa, now promoted by Dino Duva, turned some heads in his last fight, a fourth round TKO of veteran James Webb in Harlingen, Texas.

Also, cruiserweights Francisco Palacios (14-0, 7 KOs) and Ola Afolabi (12-1-3, 5 KOs) square off in a 10-rounder. Puerto Rican Palacios is considered a prospect, with an impressive win over former contender Louis Azille on his resume. Afolabi, of London now living in California, ended a two-plus year layoff with a win over Eric Fields in April.

Twenty-year-old middleweight Mike Tiberi (5-0, 3 KOs), of Smyrna, Del., will be on the undercard.

NOTE: Also on June 13 in Fort Worth, Texas, on a Telefutura card promoted by Golden Boy, former U.S. Olympian Rock Allen (12-0, 7 KOs), of Philadelphia returns to the ring in an eight-round junior welterweight bout against TBA. Allen hasn't fought since November.

Oaks, PA, June 21

For those wondering where the heck Oaks, PA is, it's located off of Route 422 near Valley Forge and Phoenixville. The card, promoted by Greg Robinson's Power Productions, will take pace at the Cisco Arena.

In the main event, Philadelphia featherweight Rashiem Jefferson (15-1-1, 6 KOs), looks to rebound from his first loss in an eight-rounder. Middleweight Derek Ennis (12-2-1, 9 KOs), also of Philly, will be in a six-rounder, as will Trenton light heavyweight Chuck Cavallo.

Why the Alphabet Boys are Jokes

The Lightweight Mess

Nate Campbell is the kind of guy we want to see win a true world championship.


He's old school. Took up boxing late. No amateur pedigree or Olympic team signing bonuses and promotional contracts. Always worked side jobs to support his family.


On tap of that, he's friendly and intelligent, and always very approachable for the fans and the media. What's not to like?


Well, his career hasn't exactly been a model of consistency, but right now he's at worst one of the top two lightweights in the world, and he's coming off a career-defining win, as he went to Cancun a few months back to won a lopsided 12-round decision over previously unbeaten multi-sanctioning body champion Juan Diaz.


The prevailing thought is that Campbell needs to meet Joel Casamayor to settle this true lightweight champion question once and for all. They met back in Jan. 2003, and Casamayor won a
somewhat controversial 10-round unanimous decision. I saw the fight, and remember thinking Casamayor 6-4 in rounds, or possible a 5-5 draw. But that's neither here nor there, Casamayor got the nod.


These days, Casamayor is considered the linear world champion at 135 pounds, mostly by the fact that he's recognized as such by The Ring magazine.


(Before I continue, it's worth noting that Casamayor is promoted by Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions, which also happens to own The Ring. However, Casamayor won recognition as The Ring's champion at 135 with a win over Diego Corrales a couple years ago, before he was promoted by Golden Boy, and before Golden Boy bought The Ring.)


Does he deserve such recognition? It certainly is debatable.

Firstly, his head-to-head with Campbell has to count. Yes, it was five years ago, and yes, technically both fighters were primarily fighting in the junior lightweight (130-pound) division at the time. But it was a non-title fight, in which Casamayor weighed 133 and Campbell 131. Technically, that made it a lightweight fight.

Not counting that fight, Casamayor is 3-1-1 in fights where both fighters fought at the 135-pound limit. That's discounting his wins over Antonio Ramirez and Lamont Pierson, where he was over that weight, and also discounts his "title" winning win over Corrales.

Let me clarify something. The third Casamayor-Corrales was supposed to be for the world lightweight championship, a distinction that Corrales earned when he knocked out Jose Luis Castillo in their first fight in May 2005. Corrales' rematch with Castillo, a fourth-round knockout loss, was supposed to be a lightweight title fight, but Castillo didn't make weight and it was fought as a non-title affair. Then, a third fight between Corrales and Castillo fell out when Castillo once again didn't make 135 pounds.

Corrales signed to fight Casamayor for a third time (they split junior lightweight bouts in 2003 and '04) for Oct. 2006. This time, however, Corrales didn't make the weight, he came in at 139 pounds. But the two parties agreed to allow the fight to go through, despite the weight discrepency. Corrales was stripped of the WBC version of the title before the bout because of his weight failure, and both the WBC and The Ring magazine declared that if Casamayor won he would get recognition as lightweight champion by both organizations.

Casamayor won a 12-round decision to take the titles. He's fought only twice since then, and was stripped of the WBC version of the title when he couldn't come to terms with David Diaz, who had won the "interim" title in Aug. 2006 when he knocked out Jose Armando Santa Cruz in the 10th round of their fifth.

To make a long explanation short, Santa Cruz was named WBC "interim" champion by winning a fight in May 2006, a distinction the WBC made to two of its top-ranked contenders as Corrales was busy tying up his business with Castillo. When Corrales-Castillo III was scrapped, the WBC didn't demand that Corrales fight Santa Cruz, like it probably by its own rules should have, it allowed him to fight Casamayor. And it allowed Santa Cruz to defend the interim title against Diaz.

It's very confusing, I know. Here's how I can sum it up in a nutshell. This "interim champion" nonsense is just a shameless moneygrab by the WBC. If they felt that strongly about Santa Cruz deserving a shot at Corrales, it should have forced that fight or stripped Corrales. To allow Santa Cruz to defend what wasn't really a title was even more transparent.

As for Casamayor, I'm not quite sure how he won the WBC or Ring titles with his win over Corrales, because it wasn't even a lightweight fight. Now, that wasn't Casamayor's fault, but it's a fact. He shouldn't have been given any lightweight title for that win, how significant it may have been for his career.

At the time Casamayor was stripped by the WBC for not agreeing to terms with Diaz, he was negotiating for a rematch with Acelino Freitas, who then held the WBO lightweight title. Casamayor had lost a close 130-pound unification fight to Freitas in 2002 and many in the sport had clammored for a rematch. It too, ironically, never came to fruition.

So, if you're arguing that it was nobody's fault but Casamayor's that he was stripped of his WBC title, there could be something to that case.

However, the Ring doesn't strip fighters for not fighting, so 13 months after his win over Corrales, Casamayor was "defending" that title in New York against Santa Cruz on the undercard of the Cotto-Mosley pay-per-view. It was also designated at WBC "interim" title fight (hmmm.... interesting).

I never saw the fight but most pundits there thought that Casamayor's 12-round split decision win over Santa Cruz - all three judges had it a one-point fight - was a gross injustice. Many use this as a reason to discredit Casamayor's claim to the true world lightweight championship. I won't comment on how bad it was, because I never saw it, but questionable decision are part of the sport - remember Lewis-Holyfield I and Whitaker-Chavez - and the idea of stripping Casamayor of a title he may or may not possess is a little hollow.

Rather than give Santa Cruz a rematch the WBC was mandating, Casamayor chose to fight Michael Katsidis in March, on HBO, for the WBO "interim" title. Casamayor won that fight with an impressive 10th-round TKO, which has again led to some to think of he as the true lightweight champion.

Is he? He's 4-1-1 in the division, with a wins over Katsidis, Santa Cruz, Daniel Seda (in 2004), and Campbell, as well as the junior welterweight win over Corrales, a loss to Jose Luis Castillo and a draw with Almazabek Raiymkulov.

Let's compare that with Campbell's resume.

Beating Juan Diaz so decisively was huge, because Diaz was undefeated an a three-sanctioning body champion. He had a TV-friendly style and many were thinking of Diaz as a young star in the sport.

The rest of Campbell's run at 135, like his career in general, has been up-and-down. He was 23-0 when he first met Casamayor in 2003. After that, however, he went 2-2-1, including two title-fight losses to Robbie Peden, before leaving the junior lightweight division.

Then, he beat a journeyman named Johnny Walker in a junior welterweight fight, but back at lightweight, he lost to Francisco Lorenzo, before being brought in as an opponent for Raiymkulov on a PPV card in Oct. 2005. He shocked many with a one-sided victory in which he earned a 10th-round stoppage over the highly-touted Top Rank prospect.

After another win, Campbell fought an IBF "eliminator" against unbeaten South African Isaac Hlatswayo on ESPN2, and Campbell lost a split decision. Despite the loss, six months later he was given another IBF eliminator against Matt Zegan, and this time won by a 12-round decision. In his next fight in March 2007, he fought a third straight IBF eliminator, a 12-round decision over Ricky Quiles, also on ESPN2. It was on the basis of his wins over Zegan and Quiles as eliminators that the IBF demanded that Juan Diaz, who had defeated former IBF champion Julio Diaz in a unification fight earlier in 2007, defend against Campbell.

I'm not quite sure why wins over fighters like Zegan and Quiles, neither of whom ever earned any special recognition as a top contender, would dictate such a demand that Campbell next get a crack at Juan Diaz, who was set to fight Katsidis, but it did, and Don King, the promoter of record at the time for Campbell and Diaz, signed the fight.

Is Campbell, who holds title belts recognition by three sanctioning organization, the legitimate claimant of the world title?

After losing to Peden for the second time and moving out of 130, at lightweight, Campbell is 6-2, with wins over Diaz, Wilson Alcorro, Quiles, Zegan, Francisco Olvera and Raiymkulov and losses to Lorenzo and Hlatswayo.

It probably wouldn't be fair to not include David Diaz in this discussion, even if his claim to the WBC version of the title is extremely questionable.

This Diaz, a 1996 U.S. Olympian out of Chicago, fought most of his early career as either a junior welterweight or welterweight. His only career loss, to Kendall Holt via an eighth-round TKO was at junior welterweight in 2005. He's only been at the lightweight limit over his last seven fights.

This is where it gets absurd. Despite never fighting in the division, his first fight at lightweight was for the vacant International Boxing Association lightweight title against Juan Polo Perez, a 46-40 fighter, in Oct. 2005. Diaz won with a third-round stoppage. I'm not exactly sure what the IBA is, but let's just not ever refer to it by name again. It doesn't deserve any further recognition.

In his first "defense", Diaz fought to a draw against someone named Ramazan Palyani, and followed that up with a wins over Silverio Ortiz and Cristian Favela. Ortiz was 16-8 and Favela was 11-10-4 going into their fights with Diaz, who was then chosen as an opponent for Santa Cruz for the interim WBC title. That interim title became the "true" title when Casamayor was stripped by the WBC.

His only defense since then was a decision over a moving-up shop-worn Erik Morales on a pay-per-view last August. His next defense is against a moving-up Manny Pacquaio on June 28. He fought a non-title fight above the weight limit in March.

When does the WBC force David Diaz to fight a mandatory? Or are lucrative PPV bouts with blown-up, but popular, lower division fighters like Morales and Pacquaio just too much for the that particular alphabet joke to pass up?

I wouldn't even put David Diaz in a discussion with Casamayor or Campbell as for the legitimate claimant to the 135-pound top spot.

But ... and you know this is true, if Pacquaio blows Diaz out, how much do you want to bet that writers all over the world will be proclaiming Pacquaio the best lightweight and the true champion?

Campbell promoter Don King has won a demanded purse bid by one of the organization that recognizes Campbell for a fight with Casamayor, who will have to decide by sometime this week if he wants that fight. Casamayor may choose to "defend" his title against Juan Diaz, as both are now promoted by Golden Boy.

Let's hope that Campbell-Casamayor comes off, because it's the only chance we have of truly clarifying this mess that has been created by sanctioning body greed and narrowmindedness.
