Tonight's Shobox starts at 11pm eastern, with a WBO light welterweight eliminator bout between Kendall Holt and "Mighty" Mike Arnaoutis. I had Arnaoutis over Ricardo Torres 115-113 in November, but Torres took the split decision, and Arnaoutis definitely could have fought more aggressively in that one. Holt has a win over current WBC lightweight champ David Diaz (who is scheduled to take on Erik Morales this summer) and beat then-unbeaten Isaac Hlatshwayo in November, which was also the last time he fought.
Should be a good matchup tonight. I like Arnaoutis by decision.
