The ever-changing Boxing landscape with so many different governing councils, personalities, egos, refusal of the best pound for pound to meet – Unless All The Stars In The Universe Lineup In A Certain Formation!, and just plain old “Drama” makes it difficult, even for hardcore fans to stay on top of the sport.
Have to be honest, even being of direct descent from a “Fight Nights Clubhouse Founder” didn’t hold my interest until a late age.
Now finding good fights on Fight Nights is a challenge that I more than welcome!
Plus, I get to deal with all kinds of Clubhouse personalities, which has to be exactly what fight planners have to deal with all these current issues in the “Sweet Science“.

John Riel Casimero was set for a huge bantamweight unification clash with Nonito Donaire before it all fell apart. Instead of a bout with Donaire, a fellow Filipino star, Casimero will step into the ring on Saturday to face former world champion Guillermo Rigondeaux.
Disputes over drug testing — with Donaire’s side suggesting Casimero balked at Voluntary Anti-Doping Association drug testing protocols, which Casimero denied — led to Casimero insulting Donaire’s wife. As the anger built, Donaire called off the bout entirely.
Casimero’s consolation prize was a fight with Rigondeaux, which will take place at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California. Losing out on the Donaire fight not only cost Casimero one of the biggest fights possible but landed him against one of the greatest tactical fighters of the modern era. Even at 40 years old, Rigondeaux is a threat to anyone with a crafty and deliberate approach, even if that has produced some less than thrilling outings in the ring.
Familia Fight Club is going to be live on location rooting for Guillermo Rigondeaux.

The best two words preceding a Boxing fight… “The Trilogy.”
The third encounter between Joshua Franco and Andrew Moloney will be a lot more than entertainment. Trust Me!
