3 Judges Suspended! Brandon Rios vs. Michael Katsidis? Alfonso Gomez may face Canelo Alvarez and More Boxing News:

3 Judges Banned! The New Jersey State Athletic Control Board (NJSACB) indefinitely suspended 3 judges, who worked the Paul Williams-Erislandy Lara fight, on Wednesday. After a full review, the NJSACB didn't find any evidence of “bias, fraud, corruption or incapacity on the part of any of the judges.” but they still aren't satisfied with the scoring. The judges will be required to have additional training before they can return to pro boxing.

Vladimir Rodionovich Klitschko died last Wednesday – he was 64. The father of the heavyweight champs Wladimir and Vitali had lymph node cancer. He was stationed near Chernobyl during the nuclear diaster, and participated in the immediate cleanup. He is survived by his wife, his sons and 3 grandchildren.

Brandon Rois vs. Michael Katsidis? Rios remains unbeaten after his recent win against Antillon, while Katsidis is 27-4. Either way, if this fight happens, it'll be one to watch!

Alfonso Gomez vs. Canelo Alvarez set to face each other September 17th at The Staples Centre in L.A.? September 17th also being the night that Floyd Mayweather will face Victor Ortiz, and Erik Morales will fight Anthony Crolla. The fight is not official yet, but if it comes through will be Canelo's 3rd world title fight – and he just turned 21 yesterday, July 18th.
