The cruiserweight division is often overlooked and is usually seen a bridge between light heavyweights and heavyweights, but on this day the spotlight turns to this IBF cruiserweight title fight.  Troy Ross (25-2) challenges the champion Yoan Pablo Hernandez (26-1) in this showdown which will tip off a very eventfully and exciting Saturday boxing card.

The veteran Troy Ross, formerly the winner of the 2009 “The Contender”, gets another shot at the IBF cruiserweight title after he suffered a cut in his 5th round TKO loss against Steve Cunningham for the vacant title back in 2012.  The 37 year old appeared to be in command of the fight and even had Cunningham down in the 4th round but the tables turned in the next round. A bad cut opened over the eye of Ross and the ref determined he would not allow the fight to go on despite multiple protests from Ross.  It appeared to be a questionable stoppage but that’s how boxing goes some times.  Since the loss to Cunningham, Ross has won against solid cruiserweight fighters in Carl Handy and Lukasz Rusiewicz.  It appears this will probably be the last title shot for Ross and he is hoping to make the most of it.

Chavez Jr vs Martinez: Fight Is Sold Out at Thomas & Mack Center

Saturday night's HBO pay-per-view showdown between Julio Cesar Chavez Jr and Sergio Martinez is officially sold out, according to a Top Rank press release, with the final tickets going this afternoon.

This is incredibly impressive not just because of the fact that so few boxing fights in the States sell this many tickets or sell out at all, but because there is a competing fight just across town in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand, with Canelo Alvarez facing Josesito Lopez in the main event.

Guillermo Rigondeaux is back on Saturday night's Chavez Jr vs Martinez undercard, still facing Roberto Marroquin, with Rigondeaux's WBA super bantamweight title at stake.

Rigondeaux (10-0, 8 KO) was signed up for the main undercard bout a while back, but briefly was removed from the card due to manager Gary Hyde winning a ruling in Miami that prevented the fight from going forward. But Hyde and Top Rank reached an agreement yesterday, and though another party (Caribe Promotions) has also tried to stop the fight because they've got some kind of contract with Rigondeaux despite never doing anything for him, allegedly, it appears as though this is fully moving forward and going to happen.
