March 5th - SHOWTIME free preview weekend .This weekend Showtime delivers us Jose Luis Castillo (51-6-1) vs. Julio Diaz (30-2) and Jeff Lacy (18-0) vs. Rubin Williams (26-1).
this should be some good boxing,also on fridaynight fights on espn 2 Rocky Juarez vs Juan Carlos Ramirez
undefeated Rocky Juarez (23-0, 16 KOs), the WBC and IBF #1 featherweight contender, made quick work of Juan Carlos "Ranchero" Ramirez (34-8, 14 KOs), stopping him in the final second of the first round. wow!!
Castillo on points, but it could be close. He struggles to make the weight and Diaz has skill and power. Whoever wins though will meet Diego Corrales in the summer.
Lacy was a savage and imposed his will on a very game Williams. The Castillo/Diaz fight was boring except for the fact that Diaz got schooled and his face got popped a lot. His left eye was completely shut and the other one was no better. Good thing Direct TV had a free Showtime weekend or I wouldn't have seen these two fights.
