Also in action:

• Timo Hoffmann and Franz Botha face off in a race to the bottom.  Even at 40 years old and out of shape and in Germany, I have to say I like Botha's chances.  On the bright side, as you can see, Botha doesn't actually need to bleach his hair anymore to get the "white rhino" effect.
  
• Ricardo Torres is making his comeback fight at welterweight, which looks to be a permanent move.
• Still think winning The Contender boosts your career?  Grady Brewer's back to what he was doing before the show, fighting a can on an undercard in Oklahoma.  
• Victor Emilio Ramirez defends his own cruiserweight belt in Argentina against Ali Ismailov.  It looks like Ramirez is going to somehow defend his title for at least one fight.  I hope a network picks up the fight when he faces the interim beltholder, Ola Afolabi, in what should be an entertaining fight.
