The official poster for the January 23 HBO show. I like how little interest Top Rank shows in promoting Steven Luevano, who is the defending titlist in that fight.

Its almost like they are fighting each other. How cool would that be….(I hate you poster for just making me realize how much BS this is in promoting winnable fights…)

Assuming they both win, they will be

If they both win on Jan. 23 they’re probably going to fight the weekend of the Puerto Rican Day Parade.

They have been, for lack of a better word, cockteasing that fight forever. They both need to win and look good, which hopefully will be achieved so I can finally get Gamboa-Lopez and pay some ridiculous amount for it…

Cotto-Castillo better be on the undercard

or Arum will look like an idiot when he has a half unsold MSG for the fight. He’s been selling out the theater with Juanma, but I just don’t think he has as big of a following as the Bobfather would lead us to believe.

How about this for a misleading poster?

I’m pretty sure the version they had on Sky PPV adverts actually blurred Sturm and Allen slightly!

Sturm did get robbed quite badly

There have been bigger robberies…

Not as badly robbed as Gevor was….

The Lazcano and Castillo fight was a pretty good fight as well…

Is Luevano promoted by Top Rank? That would bum me out.
