The hyped triple-header that HBO and Golden Boy Promotions is trying to put together for June 27 may get split and become two separate events. The original idea was to have a triple-header that would feature unbeaten James Kirkland facing WBO junior middleweight champion Sergiy Dzinziruk, Victor Ortiz facing WBA junior welterweight champion Andreas Kotelnik and a rematch between WBA featherweight champ Chris John and Rocky Juarez - all of which would have taken place at the Staples Center in California.

Chris John Shouldn't take this fight,quite Frankly because its going to be in Texas where Rocky Juarez will have the Advantage once again.No doubt Chris John should have gotten the nod for the Win last Feb.It would have been better if the two met up in Cali or on (neutral Grounds) -
i still think john wins again,juarez needs to be more agressive in his fights,throw more punches,he's not going to win like this...Comment

WTF i thought John didnt want to fight in Texas!!Comment

I don't care when the fights are as long as they are this summer. I love both cards,
Predictions subject to change:
I see John being less aggressive and moving too much because he saw what happened with the judges last time. Rocky is going to do what he always done. Ortiz wins a title, Kirkland loses by competitive decision. Just not sure he's ready for a left handed cutie with some pop and some experience.Comment

Too risky for john... my prediction : john is looking for K.O...but he didn't come out with K.O result, he is the agressor just like he did when he got a draw and rematch with Jose Ceo Rojas (john got hit a lot)... could be a war... but it's too dangerous for john... because he is not naturally an agressor he's a counterpuncher.... against enoki he was tryin "toe to toe" and then he got hit a lot...
If john playing hit and run like john-jmm...then the judge won't give him the result...except if he turn the hit and run fight like azumah nelson-withaker...but i don't see john able to do that ...
Hope John win....Comment

John should not take the fight if is in Texas
This Card should happend in either Vegas or California, or even in MSG. John got robbed in Texas last time. And Segei should get more eposing that just to fight in texas(no disrespect to texas)!Comment

John Juarez II should go on the june card and Kirkland Sergei D be either the undercard to Floyd's fight or just have Robert Guerreo on that instead.Comment

About the actuall fights.
I think John outboxes Juarez the same way he did the first fight and maybe a bit better, because John went too much toe-to-toe in the firat fight. If he keeps his distance adn fight on the outside he will cruise to a UD.
John 116-112 UD
About Kirkland-Dzinziruk, Kirkland have the first 4 rounds to land a big shot and if he doesnt Sergei will display a boxing 101 on Kirkland crusing to a UD. This is a mistake from the Kirkland people. They should of went for a Sergio Mora to see how he handles a boxer. Kirkland will lose this fight, if it happends. He is to one dimensional and defensiveless, for a experience fighter like Sergei.
Dzinziruk 116-111 UD
And about Ortiz-Kotelnik, I think this is a very though fight to pick. I mean Kotelnik is a very good all around sounded boxer with decent pop and Ortiz looks like a beast in the making but hasnt been tested yet. I think this is a huge jump in class for Ortiz. I think is better if they aim for Juan Urango, who is stronger than Kotelnik, but he is easier to hit, and lack boxing skills. Anyways i think people will be surprise of how good of a boxer Kotelnik is. Him and Ortiz will be altenating rounds till the end. I think Ortiz will pull this off, with a close UD or a la TKO 11 or 12. But dont be surprise if Kotelnik totally outboxes Ortiz, or Ortiz toally brutalize Kotelnil and KHTFO.
My pick is Ortiz 11 Round TKO in a fight that would be close as a draw till the stoppage!!!!!!Comment
