After a couple weeks off, we come back this week to talk about the combat sports world. Tom, Tony and Rich catch up and discuss the events of the past couple weeks and preview upcoming boxing and MMA action. Tom, Tony and Rich pay special attention to last weekend’s awesome UFC card with two of the best fights of the year in MMA to chat about. Eddie Alvarez’s masterful performance against Justin Gaethje was exciting enough, but add in the performance of Yancy Medeiros against Charles Oliveira and that put this card into a category all its own. We also discuss the latest boxing news and Miguel Cotto’s retirement fight. Listen to the broadcast in the player below.

LAS VEGAS, NV (Desember 6, 2017) – Prince Ranch Boxing’s ubeseiret fjærvekt prospekt, Victor pasillas (11-0, 4 KOs), deler tankene sine om sparring med WBO Super-Featherweight Champion Vasyl Lomatsjenko (9-1, 7 KOs), mens han forbereder seg til sitt oppgjør med WBA Super World Super Bantamweight champion, Guillermo Rigondeaux(17-0, 11 KOs).
Korridorer, en sørpote fra East Los Angeles, undret seg over hastigheten og hurtigheten til Lomachenko, den ukrainske stjernen som trener i Oxnard, SLIK AS.
“Sparring med Lomachenko var en flott opplevelse,” sa Victor Pasillas, som trener i Nord-California med buss Brian Schwartz. “Han har ekstraordinær hastighet og presis nøyaktighet med slagene sine. Å være i ringen med en fighter som Lomachenko, du lærer mye. Går videre, Jeg skal ta denne erfaringen og bruke det jeg har plukket opp for å forbedre spillet mitt. Jeg føler at Vasyl vil være for stor og kraftig for den mindre Rigondeaux som beveger seg opp i vekt.”
Victor, som har vært ute av ringen i over to år, vil se for å komme tilbake i ringen tidlig 2018.
“Dessverre, Jeg hadde noen kamper som falt ut,” Gangene fortsatte. “Det skjer i boksing noen ganger, så jeg må bare takle det. Jeg gleder meg til en fersk ny start i 2018. Jeg er glad for å være en del av Prince Ranch Boxing-team, og jeg kan se meg selv i noen store kamper i det kommende året. Jeg skal bare fortsette å jobbe hardt og utnytte muligheten min når den presenterer seg.”
“Victor Pasillas har mye talent, og vi planlegger å holde ham opptatt i 2018,” uttalte Greg Hannely, president for Prince Ranch Boxing. “Vi vil snart kunngjøre hans neste kamp. Han har definitivt en lys fremtid.”
