Ramiro González – 21-year-old Pable Cesar Cano (22-0-1, 17 KO’s) will be fighting for the vacant WBC light welterweight title on Saturday night against Erik Morales (51-7, 35 KO’s) at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. Cano has less than half the experience that Morales, and has none of the big fight experience either.

By William Mackay: Unbeaten light welterweight slugger Jessie Vargas (16-0, 9 KO’s) is set to show why it might not be a good idea for Amir Khan to accept Floyd Mayweather’s invitation for Khan to fight Vargas in order to get a big money bout with him. All Khan can talk about is taking on Mayweather, but Khan isn’t interested in working his way into a fight with Floyd by knocking off the dangerous light welterweights and welterweights. Khan is taking on soft punchers and looking to get the fight by calling Mayweather out in the media. It’s the David Haye approach to landing a fight.

By Chris Williams: Floyd Mayweather Sr. reportedly is in the planning stages for opening up his own gym in Las Vegas, Nevada. This has nothing to do with Mayweather Sr. being kicked out of his son’s gym Floyd Mayweather Jr. on the Mayweather-Ortiz 24/7 episode 1. It more has to do with Mayweather Sr. wanting to have his own gym to train his fighters.

By Gerardo Granados: I believe that if a country owns only one world title / belt or even if certain country owns the majority of the belts available it would mean that it has the best boxers, but instead it could mean that the promoters in that country are doing their job right.

By Ian Aldous: This week I had the chance to talk with Irish-born, Vegas based former WBC bantamweight champion, Wayne McCullough (27-7). We went over his career outside the ring, his World championship reign and the popularity of MMA.

By John F. McKenna (McJack): Sam Langford was unquestionably one of the greatest fighters who ever lived. Sam was quite possible the best Pound for Pound fighter in the era he fought in, fifty years before that term was used.

by Glen Anglin: I believe that the rules prohibition against holding in a boxing match should be enforced to its fullest extent. This would surely help the game of boxing. The holding part of boxing is an unnecessary gray area that varies fight to fight, fighter to fighter and referee to referee. There really is no good reason that holding in boxing is tolerated. If this requires that weasel-worded holding rules be re-written, then so be it.
