  5. The Nevada State Athletic Commission will hold a hearing June 9 addressing its protocol for drug testing, in general, and, steroids and illegal drugs, in particular, commission director, Keith Kizer, informed BoxingScene.com. "One of the items on the agenda is a review of protocol for steroid/drug testing, which is a follow-up from the commission's examination of this item at its September 30, 2008 meeting where we had testimony from Dr. Robert Voy, Dr. Ray Kelly and Dr. Louis Jambar," wrote Kizer in an e-mail to BoxingScene. "Also, prior to the September 2008 meeting, I had spoken with Bill Bock, the United States Anti-Doping Agency's General Counsel, about the issue," stated Kizer. "Although neither he nor anyone else from USADA were able to attend, he provided the commission with materials from USADA for that meeting." Kizer said that all five commissioners will participate in the meeting. "I do not know who else will be in attendance," said Kizer, adding that the gathering is open to the public. "But [uSADA chief executive director], Travis Tygart, has indicated he will try to attend, as has Dr. Voy." USADA tests Olympic-caliber athletes internationally as an advocate for random blood and urinalysis testing in boxing, which, as of now, only uses urine as a means of detecting the use of illegal drugs or steroid use in its fighters. In a first for the sport, however, the Nevada State Athletic Commission worked with the USADA and implemented random testing of blood and urine on both Floyd Mayweather and Shane Mosley during the lead up to their May 1 clash won by Mayweather at The MGM Grand in Las Vegas. In test results released recently by USADA from Mayweather-Mosley, Mayweather had both blood and urine taken on March 22, April 1, April 13 and then on the night directly after the fight. Mayweather provided urine only on April 3, April 6, April 21 and April 24. Meanwhile, Mosley, who claims that he unknowingly used the steroids "the cream" and 'the clear" obtained from BALCO founder, Victor Conte, provided both blood and urine on March 23, March 31, April 12 and directly after the bout on fight night. Mosley provided urine on April 3, April 6, April 21 and April 24. The move was pushed by Mayweather, who, like Mosley, "passed both the pre-bout and post-bout commission urine tests," said Kizer. "I was pleased by that." Lovely
  6. Have a look at the Schedule here. Refine the search to just the UK and you might be able to find something. Had a look earlier, nothing decent in the local area which Trent mentioned even on a domestic level

  9. 'safetypin' put up more of a fight in the weigh-in as in the actual bout. But at least he got the guts to get into the ring with him. I'm guessing you were referring to "Vitali scared Lewis into retirement" though? I loved how Kingpin tried to pants him after Vitali took his glasses off
  10. Former two division champion Joel Casamayor (37-4, 22KOs) and co-manager Luis DeCubas Jr. reached out to BoxingScene.com to set the record straight on all of the rumors pertaining to a possible fight with WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan (23-1, 17KOs). According to DeCubas, the fight between Khan and Casamayor is very close to being finalized for July 31 in England. Casamayor has accepted the fight, although the money being negotiated is lower than the amount of £400000 being reported by some of the UK papers. DeCubas and co-manager Walter Kane are in the process of finalizing the details with Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer. Khan-Casamayor will indeed be packaged, likely on a delayed basis, with the Juan Manuel Marquez-Juan Diaz HBO pay-per-view, which takes place on July 31 in Las Vegas. Casamayor has vowed to emulate Breidis Prescott, who scored a brutal 54-second knockout over Khan in 2008. The 1992 Olympic gold medal winner is irritated with some of comments being put out there in the press where people are underestimating his chances based on age. "July 31 is a go. Come July 31 lightning is going to strike twice because I'm going to knock Amir Khan out dead," Casamayor said. "I want to let the people know that I'm up for this fight." "A lot of people are putting bad things out there. Timothy Bradley, [Marcos] Maidana and [Devon] Alexander, these guys have done nothing for this sport. What have they done for this sport? I'm a four-time world champ in two weight classes. Amir Khan has done nothing either and come July 31st I'm going to prove that he's a nobody." DeCubas tells BoxingScene that Casamayor has already begun to train for the big opportunity. "July 31st is basically the date that we're fighting Amir Khan. They money hasn't really been squared away 100%. We're working on that now. But Joel is going. Joel is training and he's ready to go," DeCubas said. "Joel has put his time in the game and he's going to prove it on July 31st." During Khan's pre-fight hype for last month's bout with Paulie Malignaggi, there was a lot of trash talking going on. DeCubas is not concerned about any of the pre-fight antics coming from Khan or his team. "Do you think Amir Khan can play head games with Casamayor? Casamayor played head games with [Diego] Corrales and real fighters. Not made up stars," DeCubas said.
  11. Middleweight champion Sergio Martinez was feted in a ceremony at the WBO's Puerto Rican headquarters on May 11, when he was presented with his new title belt. Those good feelings did not last long. Martinez, who took apart Kelly Pavlik to win a unanimous decision and the lineal championship on April 17, has been stripped of his WBO version of the 160-pound title. In a letter Saturday to Martinez and his handlers, WBO president Francisco "Paco" Valcárcel informed him of the sanctioning organization's decision. "I learned a while ago that these organizations don't give you a belt," Martinez said. "They loan it to you. When they elect to take it back, they take it back. I thank them for the opportunity to win it and to hold it, but there is nothing I can do about it if they want to take it back. They can match whoever they want below me (for the vacant belt), but in my view, that winner can't truly call himself a champion." Lou DiBella, Martinez's outspoken promoter, wasn't as diplomatic as his fighter about the decision. "My attitude is f--- 'em. F--- 'em. He is the people's champion at 160 pounds," DiBella said. "He is the lineal and only legitimate champion." Martinez still holds the Ring magazine middleweight title and WBC belt at middleweight, as well as the WBC's version of the 154-pound junior middleweight title. He has not yet determined in which weight class he will fight. However, the WBO said it would no longer wait for him to decide and cited its rule governing the situation: "A WBO champion who wins a non-WBO championship in a weight class that is different than the weight class in which he holds his WBO championship must decide within 10 days of the non-WBO championship which title in which weight class he will retain. No WBO champion may hold a non-WBO championship in a weight class that is different from the weight class of his WBO championship." "We have so many bad decisions in the ring and now we have another bad one outside the ring," said Sampson Lewkowicz, Martinez's adviser. "I understand they have bylaws, but there must be an exception for an exceptional champion like Sergio 'Maravilla' Martinez." The rule in section 15 of the WBO's bylaws is one for which there has typically been an exception made when a fighter asks for one in order to allow more time to decide which title he will keep. "What's troubling is that they have a rule that gives them the right to make an exception, but here, for whatever reason, they elected to strip Sergio even though there is no contender who has been sitting there waiting and waiting for his chance," DiBella said. "A lot of the guys in their top 10 aren't even available to fight for the title. I don't know what their rush was. "Look at their ratings and try to rationalize their behavior. All you can do is conclude that this is another ratings organization who doesn't give a s--- about boxing and shoots itself in the foot." Lewkowicz said the WBC has not forced the issue yet. He added that Martinez's decision about which weight class title to keep will depend on his next opponent and HBO, which has backed Martinez's recent fights, although the network has not made his next fight a priority. Martinez (45-2-2, 24 KOs), who is from Argentina and lives in California, has been mentioned as a possible opponent for Floyd Mayweather Jr. in the event that he does not fight Manny Pacquiao.
  12. According to Fernando Beltran, president of Zanfer Promotions, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is being positioned to fight the winner of this Saturday's fight beween WBA junior middleweight champion Yuri Foreman and challenger Miguel Cotto. Chavez would fight the winner in September and possible sites include Las Vegas, Los Angeles and San Antonio. Beltran promotes Chavez Jr. along with Top Rank, who also promote both Cotto and Foreman. Chavez Jr. has a very tough task ahead on June 26, when he faces the toughest test of his young career in John Duddy. If Chavez Jr. comes out on top, Beltran will put him in against the Cotto-Foreman winner. "Julio is preparing to fight Duddy on June 26 at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, and if the fight ends with Julio's arm being raised, he will face Cotto or Foreman in a title fight. Without question, a Chavez Jr. fight against Foreman or Cotto will be an attractive fight in Mexico and in the United States and the only thing we need to do is wait for the results of their fights," said Beltran. Chavez **** sucks. Duddy is **** then as he's got no chance of a decision against him in their upcoming fight
  13. The thread 'Pac man vs pernell whitaker' is pretty interesting to say the least, 90% of people have their head screwed on right but the other 10%.....

Ours go extreme, somehow mate who's got a GF, takes his clothes at every opportunity, constant sexual positions, dancing, down to boxers, wrestling, gay reference jokes constantly, sarcastic voice non stop, it's all in good jest and we all join in but let's just say (sarcasm) the words often come up "I can't believe how straight we are".... Nothing wrong with a little bit of the above from time to time 8)

  20. 224 A.S 247 V.K At least he's in good shape...
  21. Wouldn't complain about the top 2...and lets face it all the Klitschko lovers jumped for joy when Wlad beat Rahman a while back. I wouldn't want Haye to fight the guy but if Wlad can get away with it then so can Haye. Harrison and Briggs would be awful though. Wlad got a load of shit for the Rahman fight & it'd be even worse for Haye to face him now considering he was well over 300 lbs before his 'comeback' and looked horrible in his fight against a nobody.
