The Sweet Science 08.27.09: Mayweather-Marquez

Last week during a conference call Richard Schaefer and Oscar De La Hoya of Golden Boy Promotions announced an exciting line up that will support a main event of Marquez versus Mayweather on September, 19th in Las Vegas' biggest stage, MGM Grand Garden Arena. Televised live by HBO Pay Per View, the event will feature featherweight title rematch between Rocky Juarez and Chris John, lightweight show down between Vicente Escobedo and Michael Katsidis and a special welterweight attraction with two veteran fighters, Zab Judah and Antonio Diaz. Each one of these bouts could headline an event all on its own, but put all of them together translates into excitement for the fans.

"I'm really proud to say that going back to 2000 when I started to get involved in boxing," said Richard Schaefer in his opening statement:" This really is the best under card I have seen so far of any promoter and any promotion. I really want to thank Floyd for the commitment to this card to really create that event within the event."
