i wouldnt pay to go see superhype fight but he will probably get KOd by Cambell and then will go into hiding
You and I know Ryan García will win by KO! Get your shit straight boyyy!
hell no the ONLY way he doesnt get KOd by the brit is if the fix is in by De la Hoya and speaking of which its interesting to see this fight is for a so called WBC lightweight title when Lopez beat Loma for and then Haney also won but yet Haney is NO longer even in the rankings……………… remember superhype has been fed a steady diet of home depot workers and one of those guys a few fights back rocked the chinny superhype and that guy had like only 6 kos in 18 in like 24 fights lol
