With all the attention in the boxing world this weekend focused on Canada and the United Kingdom would be easy to forget or over look at some of the other fights are also underway. Of course, the United Kingdom, the global fight against James DeGale v George Groves and Nathan Cleverly v Juergen Braehmer stole the lime light, card, issued by Sky Box Office, several features of other battles. Included in the card are Frankie Gavin, Nicky Cook, Jamie Cox and the popular Sun Sexton, in what promises to be a memorable night in the 02 Arena in London. In Canada, Bernard Hopkins v Jean Pascal II and Chad Dawson v Adrian "The Shark" Diaconu in what promises to be a decent fight live on HBO.
Apart from these two cards is probably the most exciting match of the week takes place in the division and expects minimum weight champion Sammy Gutierrez Mexico Nicaragua face tough challenger Juan Palacios. The battle will take place in Puebla, Mexico, Televisa and TV is really looks like a battle that will be real barn burner.
Gutierrez is included as interim WBA minimum weight champion in the ring and carries a record of 27-5-2 (18). Gutierrez, who recently just turned 25, has suffered the most losses of his warriors and just world should not be written off just because of his record. It is difficult having once been arrested by the elite Joyia Nkosinathi in South Africa and has a very strong punch for a minimum weight, as evidenced by the fact that he fell Joyia.
Gutiérrez fight at his home in Puebla, and has the support of the fans enter the fray, while the younger man to enter the back of wins out of six on the right and the current interim champion. Although the man who came up short against the elite, was beaten by Raúl García twice beaten by Joyia and was beaten by Omar Nino Romero. It is a real beginning of 10 or hunting and therefore the weight and maturity is a fighter who is probably starting to reach its peak.
The challenger is 30 years in Nicaragua Juan Palacios, who will be a threat to 27-3 (21) record and a scary nickname "El Exterminador". Although Gutierrez Palacios hit hard and hit hard repeatedly. Nicaragua is ridiculously hard, never stops working tirelessly, and by striking out the venom was really fun to watch little man attacked in his mind. He is not the most sophisticated fighter, but he does what he must use his opponents down.
Palacios, and Gutierrez was arrested once, if Parker was arrested in his fifth contest against the relatively unknown Ernesto Castro in 1999 and since then has been the misfortune of having lost a battle. I would go at once and José Antonio Aguirre Oleydong Sithsamerchai close on the cards when traveling to the hearts of men. The biggest problem Palacios, which is probably exceeded only once in the best part of 18 months to overcome quite unexceptional Luis Carlos Leon for a decision.
Stylistically, it's a fight that has everything. Both fighters hitting two men with that Latin fire and it is difficult to think Palacios never be in a bad fight, he comes to a battle every time he enters the ring, which is why it is so exciting, Gutierrez is a Mexican, which can tear, which can also be exciting. Gutierrez is the best fighter in the purest sense if Palacios will move forward in search of Gutierrez injury.
If the ring rust is not getting the best out of Palacios, then we are in a war really brilliant. If Parker is still the game, once upon a time I hope to grind Gutierrez in the later rounds in what would become one of the fights of the year.
