I move that:

The TBCB bug in which fighters have bouts in their history that never took place heretofore be known as the CES bug.

If Mesi pulls out (which I still think is a possibility), CES should cancel what's left of this lousy card and refund the tickets.

That said, I'm still looking forward to the road trip to R.I.

If we end up paying $65 and driving a few hours to see Deep Six, a chick and a few 4-rounders I plan on shouting unkind words at Jimmy Burchfield all night. That is if he bothers to show up with his crooked smile and $2,000 suit.

I'll bring my chess board and a card table to set up in the ring. I'll challange anyone to a game as a "time filler" between lousy 4-rounders.

I'll bet the "Sharpshooter" scored tickets to the Red Sox game Friday night!

Apparently, "Pito" Cardona is returning to the ring again in a November 8-rounder as cannon-fodder for upcoming Philly WW Mike Jones 11-0-0 (11).

When I last saw Pito at Mohegan Sun back in April, he looked lethargic in his UD-8 loss to Juan Manuel Buendia. If I'm not mistaken, he decided to retire after that bout.

Tooo funny man. You think if we call CES and say we have to pull out with viruses, we'll get a refund?

Minor point, $75 . . . but you got it right on the check, so that's all that counts

Looks like Mike Oliver and Tony Grano will be on the Richard Cappiello promoted card @ Mohegan Sun on Thursday November 8.

Mike-Mike will face tough Al Seeger 27-2-0 (21) for the USBA Super Bantamweight Title

Grano will challange the always dangerous "TBD"

I am more interested in going to this than the Tarver card but will wait until the 11th hour given our history with these things.

Thursday night card ... I wonder if it will be on versus

Cool, I might be in now.

Only three pro bouts on card, rest are Service Acad. and Native American ammys. I'd be a little less interested now, but the top seat is $75.

Don't forget unforseen traffic accidents logjamming the highway for 2.5+ hours.

Right . . leave now

Supposedly this will be the first "Live" broadcast of boxing shown on ESPN Classic.

Headlining the card will be Alfonso Gomez (the guy who retired Arturo Gatti) 17-3-2 (8) taking on wiley veteran Ben Tackie 29-7-1 (17).

Didn't get a chance to watch this. I chose to torture myself and watch the Red Sox self-destruct last night.

Anyways, New Haven native Ayala fought to a draw w/ Sergio Mora.

Scores: Raul Caiz Jr.: 96-94 Ayala, Max DeLuca: 95-95 EVEN, David Mendoza: 99-91 Mora

I don't know if how close the fight was, but the Mendoza score looks a bit suspect.

Nov. 24 at the Conn. Convention Center

In the main event on "The Heat's on in Hartford" card, Matt Godfrey (16-0, 9 KOs) of Providence defends his NABF cruiserweight belt against Jeremy Williams (42-5-1) of Long Beach, Calif.

There are five other bouts right now, all with one fighter thus far. This being a CES card,
a) some of those fights will NEVER have a second fighter
b) I will wait until at least Nov. 22 before I even consider buying tickets

For the record, those with a 50-50 chance of actually fighting that day include cruiser Aaron Williams 15-0-1, sup. feather Matt Remillard 11-0, middleweight Joey Spina 20-1-1 and jr. welter Adelita Irizarry 2-1.

the last two CES cards I went to were announced originally as nine- and seven-bout cards and actually had five apeice. So what's this going to have? Four?

mh2365 · 11-02-2007, 07:30 AM

Godfrey-Williams should be a pretty good scrap.

I agree. Both guys have good power and with Williams being chinny, it should make it a real barnburner for however long it lasts.

Romultiltus · 11-08-2007, 05:36 PM

Just about ready to head out to Mohegan Sun to see the fights w/ my step-dad. Only 3 pro bouts listed.

Al Seeger should be a good test for Mike-Mike. I don't think he's seen anyone with Seeger's power yet.

Also hope that Grano's bout lasts more than a minute & a half.
