Peterson vs. Matthysse at 141-Pound Catch-Weight

Posted by: Edward Chaykovsky on 4/8/2013 .

Lucas Matthysse and Lamont Peterson are working hard for their upcoming match, scheduled to take place on May 18th at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. Peterson (31-1-1, 16 KO’s) vs. Matthysse (33-2, 31 KO’s) will be the Showtime televised fight to Devon Alexander vs. Kell Brook will headline the show. Golden Boy Promotions announced earlier today that Peterson-Matthysse will take place at the catch-weight of 141-pounds, which means Peterson's IBF junior welterweight title, and Matthysse's WBC interim-title, are not at stake.

The fight is technically being billed as a "twelve round welterweight" match. Matthysse, the WBC's mandatory challenger to champion Danny Garcia, would likely remain in that position regardless of the Peterson outcome.

Mayweather-Guerrero: Byrd To Ref, Judges Also Named

Posted by: David P. Greisman on 4/8/2013 .

The referee for the May 4 welterweight title fight between Floyd Mayweather and Robert Guerrero at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas will be Robert Byrd.

Byrd was selected at the April 8 meeting of the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

The other candidates to be the third man in the ring for that bout were Kenny Bayless, Vic Drakulich and Tony Weeks.

The judges, meanwhile, will be Duane Ford and Jerry Roth of Nevada, and Julie Lederman of New York.

The other candidates to score that bout were Burt Clements, Richard Houck, Patricia Morse Jarman, C.J. Ross and Glenn Trowbridge of Nevada, Don Griffin of Texas, and Michael Pernick of Florida.

There were no objections to these names from either fighter’s camp.

Byrd has not been the referee for any of Mayweather’s previous fights, according to BoxRec.com. That website shows Byrd as being the ref in Guerrero’s 2006 fight with Orlando Salido and his 2003 stoppage win over Jose Luis Tula.

Roth has been a judge for six Mayweather fights, including his 115-113 scorecard for Mayweather against Oscar De La Hoya in 2007, and a 115-111 scorecard for Mayweather’s first win over Jose Luis Castillo in 2002, according to BoxRec.com. Ford is listed as having judged Mayweather’s stoppage win over Sharmba Mitchell in 2006.

Roth was a judge in Guerrero’s 2010 technical knockout of Roberto Arrieta, and Lederman was part of the panel that unanimously saw Guerrero’s win over Andre Berto last year as being by a tally of 116-110.

The stuff Guerrero got away with in that Berto fight won't work with this dude. Byrd doesn't play that dirty boxing shit, he's going to have to fight to win

[2stepz_ahead]

what sites yall place bets on?

 

[Bcotton5]

lmao do this nigga drop fighters if they lose?

 

[Art-illery]

Oscar has been salty with Floyd ever since Floyd took his spot as PPV king. Every opponent that Floyd fights against, Oscar always roots for the other opponent.

 

[Art-illery]

Ya'll noticed Joel Casamayor in Rigo's training camp right? It's pretty interesting, because Casamayor put in work against Robert Garcia (Nonito and Brandon Rios' trainer) in the ring back in the day. You can't sleep on Pedro Diaz either... Dude is like a mad scientist with gameplans. The gameplan for Cotto against Floyd was pretty good. Looks like Rigo has been gettin more brolic too. It's still a pick 'em fight, but I'm rooting for Rigo.
