Watch Devon Alexander vs Junior Witter Live


World Boxing Council No. 1-ranked super lightweight Devon Alexander “The Great” will fight for the vacant WBC super lightweight championship against the former holder of that belt, Junior “The Hitter” Witter, in a tremendous co-feature on Saturday, Aug. 1 at The Show at Agua Caliente - Casino - Resort - Spa in Rancho Mirage, California. (SHOWTIME 9 p.m. ET/PT)

In an interesting twist, Witter lost this title on May 10, 2008, to undefeated Timothy “Desert Storm” Bradley (24-0, 11 KOs), who will defend his World Boxing Organization 140-pound crown against former unified lightweight world champion Nate “Galaxxy Warrior” Campbell (33-5-1, 25 KOs) in the main event on this card. In a world title unification, Bradley defeated Kendall Holt on April 4 to capture the WBO belt. Less than a month later, Bradley chose to voluntarily relinquish the WBC strap that Alexander and Witter will be vying for.

“I just found out a few days ago that I’ll be in my first world championship match against Junior Witter on Aug. 1,” Alexander said. “I am so thrilled to be fighting for a world title and against Witter, a fighter I respect. He’s already had the title we’re fighting for, and I feel like it’s my turn now. I’m not stopping my undefeated run for anyone. I’ll never have a chance at the biggest fights in the world against Floyd Mayweather or Manny Pacquiao unless I win this.”

Isaac Hlatswayo vs Delvin Rodriguez


Isaac Hlatswayo vs Delvin Rodriguez
Vacant IBF Welterweight Title
August 1, 2009
Mohegan Sun Resort and Casino
Uncasville, CT


Classy boxer-puncher Delvin Rodriguez has been seeking a breakthrough type of fight for some time, and he has had to travel to South Africa for his opportunity.

Rodriguez, the 28-year-old from Connecticut, meets Isaac Hlatswayo in an IBF welterweight title elimination match at the Emperors Palace casino hotel in Kempton Park on Monday — a championship chance against Joshua Clottey awaits the winner.

Hlatswayo, 31, is the slight favourite based on the fight’s location. Rodriguez has some advantages, though. He is younger and taller — and he’s also a 147-pounder meeting a boxer who was fighting at 140 pounds just a couple of years ago. In addition to this, Rodriguez clearly seems to be the puncher in the fight.

A slight concern is that Rodriguez’s last fight saw his opponent, Oscar Diaz, collapse afterwards and undergo brain surgery. It put a sad postscript on what had been a superb performance by Rodriguez, and one must wonder if the fight will have any effect on the way he performs against Hlatswayo. When something such as this happens, a fighter can usually come to terms with the situation by knowing that what happened was just an accident, but you never know. Fighters react to these things in different ways.

Pacquiao vs Cotto set on Nov. 14


It matters little to Top Rank promoter Bob Arum that Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto are each regarded as among the world’s 10 finest boxers. Arum is simply thrilled that the fight between them that he finalized last week while on vacation in Israel and Italy will, in fact, be a fight.

rum said Monday that Pacquiao and Cotto will meet in a fight with a 145-pound weight limit on Nov. 14 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on HBO Pay Per View.

The bout and the date had been long rumored, but the hang-up was getting the men to agree on a weight. Cotto holds the World Boxing Organization welterweight belt and has difficulty going much below 147.

Pacquiao, who still has only had three of his 54 bouts above 130 pounds, preferred it to be as low as possible and no higher than 144. Cotto’s physical trainer said he couldn’t safely fight below 145 pounds and Pacquiao ultimately agreed to the weight.

Arum expects the fight to perform as well at the gate as Pacquiao’s dominating second-round stoppage of Ricky Hatton, which produced $8.9 million in ticket revenue at the MGM Grand Garden, but he’s hopeful it will exceed it in pay-per-view sales.

David Beckham returns to Major League Soccer


Los Angeles midfielder David Beckham returned to the Home Depot Center on Saturday night to watch his Galaxy teammates beat Chivas USA. Beckham will rejoin the Galaxy for training this week to prepare for his long-awaited return in a nationally televised match in New York on Thursday night.

As always, Beckham didn't slip in the back door quietly.

In some ways, the destiny of the Galaxy's near future presents a question no one can predict because Beckham is a unique phenomenon who creates a wide-ranging impact that can't be quantified by anticipation.

Only four things about Beckham's return appear certain right now: (1) Beckham will apply himself on the field – barring injury – to wade off Donovan's accusations of poor professionalism and maintain his place in the England squad; (2) Donovan will try to find a way to achieve some sort of truce with Beckham, even if the reconciliation only repairs the relationship to the point where the duo can share the same field; (3) the Galaxy players will take time to adjust on and off the field to the white hot glare Beckham brings wherever he goes; and (4) Galaxy coach Bruce Arena will face the biggest coaching challenge of his career as he integrates Beckham and all of his trappings into a cohesive and workmanlike Galaxy unit already pushing for a playoff berth.

Everything else surrounding Beckham's return is open to debate, interpretation and speculation. To help with that parlor game, I exchanged e-mails with Wahl to get his take on the situation.

Cro Cop Returning to UFC

Heavyweight contender Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic has signed a three- fight contract extension with the Ultimate Fighting Championship, UFC president Dana White said on Monday.

Several days after the initial reports, Sergio Non of USA Today reported that DREAM official Mike Kogan confirmed that Filipovic would fight on its July 20 show. A fight between Filipovic and “Mighty” Mo Siligia briefly appeared on DREAM’s website as scheduled for July 20.

But Filipovic never signed the DREAM contract and opted instead to honor the agreement he made over the telephone with White. Filipovic’s first bout on the extension will be against Junior dos Santos at UFC 103 in Dallas on Sept. 19.

“I never had a problem with Mirko himself and I’m looking forward to having him fight for us again,” White said. “He’s said (his previous stint in) the UFC is the black mark on his career and he wants to do something about that.”

In a press conference, Aoh said “I welcome this opportunity to defend my belt against the strong challenger. I’ll fight as if I were a challenger.” This could be a good fight seeing Japanese boxers dominate world titles in this sport.

Japanese southpaw Hozumi Hasegawa successfuly retained his throne for the sixth time as he impressively defeated Uruguayan challenger Cristian Faccio last June. Will he be able to do it for the seventh time? I think the time span from his last match up to the 14th is too short to recover and prepare for this comming match. I'll just Watch Hozumi Hasegawa vs. Nestor Rocha live streaming if I can find any.



RESULT


Hozumi Hasegawa won by a first round TKO over Nestor Rocha, Hozumi retains the title

Lakers look to Artest to fill dramatic role

Kobe Bryant always admired that Ron Artest never acted like he wanted an autograph when duty demanded that he defend him. He loved that Artest was combustible and crazy and always left people wondering: Is this the moment when Ron-Ron loses his mind again, when all hell breaks loose?

Deep down, Bryant wanted Artest on his side. Artest gives a thirtysomething Kobe what Dennis Rodman gave a thirtysomething Michael Jordan: A belligerent, tough guy bearing the burden of protecting the superstar’s back.

And as far back as the Western Conference playoffs, the Lakers believed Artest wanted to trade Houston for Hollywood, that the Rockets’ decaying cornerstone of Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady turned that team into a temporary rehab assignment.

“If they couldn’t get Trevor [Ariza] cheap,” said a source with knowledge of the Lakers’ free-agent plans, “they had Ron in their back pocket.”

And maybe, in some ways, that won’t be the worst thing in the world for the Lakers. Chaos? That’s letting your agent’s agenda and big mouth get your butt shipped from the Los Angeles Lakers for lottery land in Houston. Kobe Bryant had been willing to take back his whole team, but Ariza made the mistake of giving the Lakers what they always wanted, what they always believed was available to them: the combustible and crazy Ron Artest.

Kobe Bryant gets his Rodman now, and yes, this is how all hell breaks loose in Hollywood.
