GUZMAN SHOULD BE ARRESTED!
Las Vegas, NV- Only in Nevada can “overweight” fighters apply their trade even if they don’t make the contracted weight. Forget the 2005 Diego Corrales-Jose Luis Castillo rematch, in which the overweight fighter (Castillo) who had NOT dried out, simply kicked the s*it out of...
LIGHTWEIGHT TOPS UFC FIGHT NIGHT
Kenny Florian, 155 lbs, Westwood, MA vs. Takanori Gomi, 155, Tokyo, Japan. Florian (12-4, 3 KOs, 8 SUBs) will look to spoil Gomi’s (31-5, 11 KOs, 6 SUBs) UFC debut, but it won’t be easy. Florian will likely be looking for the submission...
