LAS VEGAS, NEV.- A world championship battle between north and south will highlight the May 2 pay-per-view undercard for Manny Pacquiao vs. Ricky Hatton: "The Battle of East and West." World Boxing Council (WBC) Super Featherweight Champion HUMBERTO SOTO of Mexico will defend his title against Canadian contender BENOIT GAUDET. The pay-per-view broadcast will also feature undefeated top-rated junior middleweight contender JAMES KIRKLAND, risking his rating and record when he takes on MIKE WALKER, former two-time world amateur champion and Russian Olympian MATT KOROBOV facing RODRIGO AGUIAR and former world amateur champion, Cuban southpaw ERISLANDY LARA against CHRIS GRAY. Combined, these eight gladiators have a combined record of 135-20-4 (84 KOs), an 85% winning percentage. [details]

im all for showcasing too, but yea like you said make it competitive and atleast put another fight or two on there that is evenly matched.Comment

Awful undercard as usual. Good young fighters against very easy competition. Why wouldnt they show the Alvarado and Mares fights over Korobov and Lara or whatever. This is a bad undercard, even up to todays standards of crappy undercards.Comment

Looks like some quick KO's for Kirkland and co on the undercard....being from the UK I don't mind so much because we've got a decent domestic card in England taking place as part of our PPV which is full of evenly matched fights before the action switches over to Vegas.
