Read the rest of this entry »
By Dan Ambrose: WBA light welterweight champion Marcos Maidana (31-3, 28 KO’s) is possible for the undercard of WBC junior middleweight champion Saul Alvarez’s next fight on September 15th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. There still isn’t an opponent picked out for the 28-year-old Maidana, but there is still a ton of time to pick someone out by then. Read the rest of this entry »
By Scott Gilfoid: Carl Froch (28-2, 20 KO’s) takes pride in his ability to take hard shots to the head without going down or getting hurt. There’s little doubt that Froch can take a mean shot to the head and still keep coming forward at full steam. Read the rest of this entry »
By Eric Thomas: Heavyweight Odlanier Solis (17-1, 12 KO’s) will be fighting for the first time in over a year on Saturday night when he faces Russian Konstantin Airich (23-5-2, 17 KO’s) in a 12 round bout for the vacant IBF Inter-Continental heavyweight title at the Convention Center, in Pharr, Texas. Read the rest of this entry »
By Dan Ambrose: According to the RingTV twitter, WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao’s base purse will only be $6 million for his June 9th fight against Tim Bradley. This is kind of low as you can imagine, in particular when you compare it to the $32 million guaranteed purse that Floyd Mayweather Jr. received for his fight against Miguel Cotto on May 5th. Read the rest of this entry »
By Chris Williams: Seemingly being pecked at by all sides after his recent comments made about gay marriage, WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao could be distracted enough to where he won’t be at 100% on June 9th against Tim Bradley. Read the rest of this entry »
By Scott Gilfoid: Mikkel Kessler will be making one of his rare appearances in the ring on Saturday night against the powerful American Allan Green in Denmark. Kessler seems to think this is going to be an easy fight, but Green will have something to say to that by giving him a rude welcoming to the light heavyweight division. Read the rest of this entry »
By John F. McKenna (McJack): Filipino icon WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao (54-3-2, 38 KO’s) who takes on undefeated WBO light welterweight champion Timothy Bradley (28-0-1 NC) on June 9 at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas has incurred the wrath of the gay and lesbian community with his condemnation of same sex marriage. Manny took it a step further by criticizing U.S. President Barack Obama for his stance on the issue. Read the rest of this entry »
By Scott Gilfoid: Carl Froch is discounting IBF super middleweight champion Lucian Bute’s best wins of his career and he feels he still hasn’t fought at the top level. Because of that, Froch says he can’t estimate how good or not so good Bute is. Read the rest of this entry »
By Chris Williams: In response to the news that WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao doesn’t support gay marriage, unbeaten Floyd Mayweather Jr. sounded off on the topic and is in full agreement with the president of the United States Barack Obama. Read the rest of this entry »
By Dan Ambrose: Former WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto (37-3, 30 KO’s) says he plans on fighting another two to three years before he hangs up his gloves for good.

By Jim Dower: Heavyweight contender Francesco Pianeta (26-0-1, 14 KO’s) kept his unbeaten record intact with a solid clinch-filled 10 round unanimous decision over 47-year-old former WBC heavyweight champion Oliver McCall (56-12, 37 KO’s) at the Brandenburg Halle in Frankfurt, Germany. The final judges’ scores were 98-92, 97-93 and 99-91. Read the rest of this entry »
By Dean Morgan: On June 9th Timothy Bradley (28-0,12 KOs) may finally get the recognition he deserves when he squares off against pound 4 pound king Manny Pacquiao (54-3-2,38 KOs) at the MGM Grand Garden arena in Las Vegas. Many experts and the majority of boxing fans are picking Pacquiao, kind of overlooking Bradley. Bradley, being the underdog, will work to his advantage. Read the rest of this entry »

Chan Sung "The Korean Zombie" Jung (Pictured) hardly speaks a lick of English, but he knew exactly what to say after posting an impressive submission victory over Dustin Poirier on Tuesday night - "I want Jose Aldo."
Patriot Center in Fairfax, Virginia hosted Tuesday evening's "UFC on FUEL TV 3" event featuring featherweights Dustin Poirier (Pictured) and Chan Sung Jung.
After a night of freebie MMA action, UFC president Dana White awarded Dustin Poirier and Tom Lawlor each an additional $40,000 for their special performances Tuesday night at “UFC on FUEL TV: Korean Zombie vs. Poirier.” Chan Sung “The Korean Zombie” Jung (Pictured) double dipped and pocketed a pair of checks for his efforts.
Now that “UFC on FUEL TV: Korean Zombie vs. Poirier” is officially in the books, make sure to stream tonight’s post-fight press conference live right here on 5thRound.com.
Although "UFC on FUEL TV: Korean Zombie vs. Poirier" is currently popping off inside Patriot Center in Fairfax, Virginia, UFC president Dana White (Pictured) is clear across the country set to undergo surgery. While it's nothing compared to Cal Ripken Jr.'s impressive streak, White did have a nice run going prior to Tuesday's no-show.
Another layer in the Nick Diaz no-show drama from Saturday's World Jiu Jitsu Expo has been uncovered. On Tuesday afternoon, Braulio Estima (Pictured) issued a response to Cesar Gracie's statement from earlier today.
