Cover: Mikel
Lopez (41-0) vs Ryan McCormick (35-0) –
Who wins?
The Super-Fight has been made, signed, sealed and delivered – Mikel Lopez (41-0) will put his
undefeated record and WBC strap on the line against #1 WBC contender and fellow unbeaten fighter
Ryan McCormick (35-0). So the question is, “Who will win?” Lopez, known for his all out agressive
and
crowd pleasing style, grew up dirt poor in
now and
he’s not
about to give it up by losing to McCormick.
The challenger, McCormick, believes it
is his turn to step out into the lime light and he’ll bring a his huge Irish following with him to the bout.
We think Lopez is too experienced and accomplished of a fighter at this point to lose to McCormick but
look for the challenger to make another run at a World Title in the near future.

April Fool’s Here, Ace Morton is a Legend!”
No matter what he does from here on out, WBA/IBF Champion Ace Morton (47-2) will always be
remembered
as the first legitimate Champion under Cass’ new simulator (circa early
2006). Whatever
accomplishments
Morton adds to his resume during the few remaining fights he has left
in him
will
only add to his legacy. Morton unified all the belts after 10 weeks of alphabet madness to clear out the
division and won his first 44 fights. Morton says he wants to fight at least twice more and take down
a few of the young guns out there like Lord Adam Taylor and Marcus Crimson. It won’t be easy but
we hope the Champion can finish out his career on top and allow the whole championship process to
play out all over again.

unification tournament has

current front runner, WBA Champ

Arquete – “I want to be up there with Alberssen
and Torero!”
After another tweaking of the simulator, the new format still has three champs but just one league and
the
fighters are ranked from 1-80. The
general consensus of the top fighter in Cass today is IBF
champion
Andre Arquete. Arquete first became champ by defeating Chris
Hurley but
later lost the
crown to Ricardo Rosenstein. Now Arquete is back with avengence as he captured the IBF strap with
a compelling victory over Taylor Sinclair. But Arquete makes it clear he isn’t satisfied, instead he wants
to be remembered with the greats of Cass Boxing - Alexander Alberssen and Torero Martinez – just to
mention a few.

return to Cass Boxing!
After some restructuring, a new league format has been created that basically includes three leagues
built into one, with each “mini league” representing a sanctioning body and it’s own champion.
However, unification bouts are allowed to create an Undisputed Champion. ID #’s 1-33 represent the
WBC, 34-66 represent the WBA and 67-99 represent the IBF. The current consensus top fighter is WBA
Champion Alexander Alberssen – who will fight his final bout tomorrow by defending his title against
Ace Patterson. Look for Alberssen to go out with a win and finish his career without a clean defeat on
his impressive record. Then it will be Cesar Sorez’s time to shine!

Cover: Can
Alexander Alberssen remain on top?
It was no pleasure cruise along the way but Alexander Alberssen has made it to the top of Cass Boxing
after
his victory over undefeated Arthur Jones.
Alberssen’s two defeats were
disputed
decisions to Mark
Randel
and Cole Boente but he took the losses in
stride and viewed them as
mere bumps on the road to
the Cass World Title. Alberssen’s convincing victory over Arthur Jones helps ease the pain of his
controversial losses and now the question is how long can Alberssen remain the Champ? One thing the
Champ emphasisizes is how he has defeated everyone on his way to the top (which is true) so he’s ready
for anything. We think Alberssen is the Real Deal and he will prove it for sure with another win over
Arthur Jones.

After his impressive rematch victory over Robin Lawson to regain the Cass World Title, boxing pundits
everywhere
are debating if Torero Martinez can be defeated. Sure,
he has a loss on his record but that
was a
controversial
split-decision loss to Lawson in their first fight.
No one has given
legitimate defeat. The biggest threat out there is clearly
undefeated IBO champion

close

last time this situation occurred, Ramon Clark and Mason
Alexander were both 33-0 and we

remind you what happened then, right?
Well, just in
case you weren’t aware, it resulted in a mesmerizing 5-fight series. Today, Lawson holds the World
Title and is universally recognized as champ after his victory over Haven Corley (37-2). However, the

Jared Tulley – Who’s next?
Jared Tulley, the
unlikeliest of candidates, has emerged as the Undisputed Champion of
Cass
boxing after
defeating Desmond White and unifying all the belts.
But make no mistake about it,
with top contender Sherrell McKie, hard hitting Jovan Yilmaz, and the cute boxer Omar Cox
awaiting their shots, there is no shortage of challengers out there. We’d love to see Tulley
matched
with prosising prospect Yilmaz!

Cover: What
a Mess! Who is the Champ?
The Championship
picture in Cass Boxing
today is a mess! Can we sort out who the
champ really
is? Pat Montgomery just defeated Malik Walter to become a 3-Time Champion and the
Linear
champ so he is on top. Kyle Montross has the best record and is still a major threat at #2. Desmond
White is the undefeated WBA Champ that just burst onto the scene and the sky is the limit for him!
And never count out Malik Walter, Jared Tulley and top contender Dennis Hunter. So who is #1?
We need an elimination
tournament to crown
an Undisputed Champion!

He had never lost the belts in the

Cozier has youth on his side and Calzada
has
experience,
both are heavy hitters. One thing is for

Jose Andrews scored a
10th round knockout of Roberto Espadas to
unify the
Cases Boxing Crown
but
he still feels under-appreciated! He is
considered universally over as the one and only champ
but
his detracters still consider him to be a
fluke champion. They are aided by the fact
that he was
behind
on all offical cards going into the 10th
round of his
fight with Espadas.
That makes it even
more
impressive to
me. This kid’s story is even more
amazing by the fact that his description upon
bursting
onto the
Cass scene was simply “poor.”
This poor fighter is now supreme leading of the

Cover: The
Incredible Story
of Jose Andrews and his Victory over Armando Calzada.
We we thrilled to have new WBC/IBF Champion Jose
Andrews write
his own account of his fight
with
Armando Calzada. “Few
gave me the chance to win, but that’s
O.K. That just motivated me.
I knew I would win. I said the way to be him was to stand
toe-to-toe with him, not run from his
power. I take nothing away from him.
He was a true champ, not a paper champ. We
faught for 12
grouling
rounds, his right eye closed, while I had two broken ribs from the 4th
round
on. It was close,
but
I knew I had
pulled it out. Now, I’ll fight
anybody. Well fight Armando again, on
our terms this
time
though. I’ll fight James Hart, Espadas, I don’t care. I’ve finally proven
myself.”

Cover: Can
James Hart chop
through Naoya Hernandez?
Undefeated WBA champ
James Hart has been very impressive since he burst onto the Cass Boxing
scene
with a stunning 6th round knockout of former champ Shane
Herrera and a successful defense
against
top ranked
Take Soon Jr. Now can Hart defeat hard
hitting Naoya Hernandez to solidify he
position
as the
best fighter in the world today? Hart
must avoid Hernandez’s two fisted power for a
full
12
rounds. We think Hart’s superior boxing
skills will help him avoid Hernandez’s right hand
and
win a decision
8 rounds to 4.

Cover: Adrian
Diaz vs Takeo Boy Soon –
Our fearless fight forecast!
A classic match of finesse
(Diaz) vs power (Soon). Diaz also brings his outstanding workrate, which is
is
enough alone to beat most fighters, and his
experience. Meanwhile, Soon
is a young powerhouse
hoping
is young
with overcome his opponents age. We
don’t know much about Soon since his best
opponent
to date
is Arnold Cruz (18-2). I believe Soon
will be studying Diaz’s defeats to Kasim
Ortiz
in
their 1st and
3rd encounters. Soon’s
youth, reflexes and power will overcome the vetern
but aging
champ
in the 8th
round.

Cover: Surprise,
Surprise –
the IBF returns to Cass Boxing!
Well, it lasted
slightly more than 6 weeks but now the IBF has returned to Cass Boxing. We knew it
was too good
to be true, right? So what does this
mean for Cass Boxing? Believe it or not,
I think it
is
good! Let’s face it, no matter how good
you have performed nor how much talent you show, if you
don’t
have a belt, you’re nobody! Now, if the
champs will fight each other (one big if) then having
the IBF in Cass will produce more marquee matchups.

WBC
Champion Adrian Diaz will meet Omar Cardona, his
toughest test since he dethroned
Roberto Dominguiz, in his 43rd professional fight. Can he perform as well here as he did against
Domionguiz in just his 19th fight?
We think Cardona simply outworks the champ to win a close,
majority decision. Look for Diaz to hang up the belts and be a future hall-of-famer!

Diaz cleans out
the division – is there anyone out there left to challenge him?
Adrian Diaz has
successfully cleaned out the Cass Boxing division.
Names added to Diaz’s resume
along
his path of destruction include Roberto Dominguiz,
Carlos Hilton – twice, Marion Navarro -
twice,
and Tony Ramos. Now, is there anyone
left that can offer a legitimate threat to the champion?
Currently the short list of
challengers includes Kasim Ortiz and Christano Estrada.
Estrada is a cute
boxer
but probably no better than Carlos Hilton.
Ortiz is another story with legitimate power.
Even
if Ortiz fails, be on the lookout for knockout artist Baudilio Haugen.

Christano
Estrada had to wait over 3 weeks just to get a television
fight on a Cass card. Then he had
victories
over Ismael Benavides and Carlos Bryce but
he is still looking
for his deserved title shot.
He said he just takes it all
one step at a time. Now as he waits for
his title shot he is looking towards
possible
fights with Carlos Hilton, Marion Navarro, and Tony Ramos.
Then he expects to take Diaz’s
titles away – one step at a time.

Diaz pulls out
another split decision victory to unify the Cass World Title!
First, Adrian Diaz
defeated Marion Navarro to unify the WBC & now defunct IBF Titles. Then after
a
10th round stoppage of journyman
Mike
Randle, Diaz has pulled out another split decision victory
over
Gold Medalist Carlos Hilton to become the Undisputed Champion. How many more of these fights
can
he survive, we think many because now the judges will favor him since
he has
all the belts. Next
for
Diaz, a WBC mandatory against Leon Edwards and then a much anticipated
rematch
with either
Marion Navarro or Carlos Hilton.
1. Adrian Diaz (26-0
17KO, Undisputed Champion)
2. Carlos Hilton (32-2
16KO)
3. Marion Navarro (25-1

4. Tony Ramos (21-0

6. Leon Edwards (20-1

Inside: Tony
Ramos – the kid
from the bronx
has his eyes
on Adrian Diaz’s belts.
The
knockout artist from the bronx
has fought his way to a #4 ranking by our
accounts even without
a
victory over a
top contender and now he is bent on taking Adrian Diaz’s belts. Does he deserve all of
this
attention and can he beat Diaz? He does
deserve attention for his power, which will bring a new
dimension
to Cass Boxing. At this point however,
without a win over a worthy contender, he will still
fall to Diaz and his tremendous boxing skills.
Fight of the Week: Adrian
Diaz
(26-0) vs Carlos

Cover: Adrian
Diaz vs Marion
Navarro: Analysis and Predictions!
Although Diaz can
slug with the best of them and has a ferocious left hook, look for this
to be a
tactical
boxing match. Diaz will not risk his
career by running at Navarro and with good reason since
Navarro is too good to be
caught on the chin. The tangible for
this boxer vs boxer fight is simple, how
will
Navarro fair against Diaz’s southpaw style.
We think the southpaw style will slow Navarro in the
opening
round and Diaz’s power boxing will slow Navarro down over the stretch
to give
Diaz a clean,
unanimous decision.
1. Adrian Diaz (22-0
16KO, WBC Champion)
2. Marion Navarro (24-0
12KO, IBF Champion)
3. Carlos Hilton (29-1
16KO, WBA Champion)
4. Rueben Castro (18-0
14KO)
5. Leon Edwards (18-1
16KO)
6. Ismael
Benavides (18-1 15KO)
Inside: Is
the elimination of
the IBF good for Cass Boxing?
The
most important question here is probably will it
last? We hope so, although chances are
they will
recover
and
reestablish themselves sometime in the future.
One this is for sure, while they are gone, it
is
definitely a good thing for Cass Boxing!.
It will clean things up and it should be a lot easier to get
2 champions
together to unify the belts than three.
This will also make championship contests more
legitimate and force more challengers to fight each other and earn their title oppertunities.

Diaz – I

Following
his one-sided decision victory over Roberto Dominguiz
to capture the WBC Title, Adrian
Diaz said, “I dethroned a
legend.” He did indeed.
But the question arises now, is Diaz a legend
in his
own
right? Could he have defeated the
Roberto Dominguiz of 5 years ago? Only time will tell the
answer
to the 1st question and we’ll never now the answer to the 2nd. Diaz has accomplished the
critical
task of dethroning a legend, the first step toward legendary status. Look for Diaz to have a
long,
prosperous reign and meet Marion Navarrow
down the
road. One thing is for sure, legendary
status isn’t given to a fighter, he must earn it first!

Cover: Roberto
Dominguiz vanquishes Victor Graham but did
he really defeat
Floyd
Haywood?
Roberto Dominguiz remained on top of the world after his
2nd round
thrashing of undefeated Victor
Graham but later he
struggled with tough Cass Olympic Sliver Medalsit
Floyd Haywood. Dominguiz
pulled
out a close, unanimous decision that many at ringside disagreed with. Haywood landed 81
more
punches than the Champion but he was also floored in the 4th round. Not only did the decision
leave
fans booing, it also left them wanting more!
You won’t hear any complaints about the decision
here,
it could have gone either way, but we do call for a mandatory rematch. Our pick, Dominguiz
by
KO this time!

2nd chance at Super-Stardom!
When
Jose Cesar Suarez won the IBF title by knocking Juan
Nunez out many moons ago, many,
including
ourselves, praised him as the future of Cases boxing.
After a string of successful defenses
he
ran into a road block named Victor Graham.
After losing a one-sided decision to Graham, we all
had
to rethink our previous evaluations of him.
Now he is back and champion once again after defeating
well-respected
Angel Pedroza.
Have we changed our tune about his future outlook?
Not a bit.
The
biggest
fight in Cass Boxing today is Suarez vs Dominguiz and Suarez is the man to dethrone
Dominguiz! You heard it here first!

Victor Graham proved

he do the same to Christoph Tobious? You’ve got
to admit his victory
over
Suaez wasn’t a fluke, he dominated every
round of the

says
Tobious will burst his bubble.
