Saul Canelo Alvarez Wins! – Beats Rhodes in 12th Round, Meet Unusual Olympic Hopeful Jose Saenz, Michael Katsidis vs. Graham Earl Called Off, Boxing Gear & Boxing Glove, Guillermo Jones Withdraws Due to Back Injury, Discount Punching Bag...

Saul Canelo Alvarez celebrates his victory over Ryan Rhodes

Saul Canelo Alvarez is Victorious! He beat the European champ Ryan Rhodes in the 12^th round with a technical knockout, plus, he had won all 11 rounds. They were 48 seconds into the last round when referee Hector Afu stopped the fight. Rhodes either would not, or could not, fight. Rhodes declared that he “probably underestimated his power”, saying that “He's a strong, young kid, he caught me with a lot of body shots... that took a toll on me.” However, he's not finished and he claims he's still number one in Europe. Alvarez's next opponent may be Ricardo Mayorga.

Jose Saenz

Jose Saenz is hoping to compete in Olympic Boxing, however, there is one huge difference about this young man. He has no sponsor, therefore he has to fund himself. Plus, no coach at his home gym, so he has been training himself. On top of all that, he is attending Rockhurst University (accounting major). Hopefully, this young man will “turn some heads”...

Michael Katsidis' fight with Graham Earl has been called off... due to unspecified contractual issues. Instead, he will fight Michael Lozada on August 13^th. Katsidis will be moving up to 140 lbs, and he hopes to face Erik Morales after a win over Lozada.

Guillermo Jones sustained a back injury, and has withdrawn from his Saturday title defense. Poor guy has been “living under a rock and giving it my heart and soul for eight weeks, and it's not going to come to fruition.” He was up against Ryan Coyne.
