Triple G returns against Willie Monroe Jr. and more importantly, it's the American TV debut of probably the 2nd best fighter in the world, Roman Gonzalez. I've been following Chocolatito's career for a long time and I'm pumped to see him on HBO instead of youtube or Japanese streams. Hopefully HBO continues to televise his fights because he's truly one of the modern greats but doesn't get much respect here because he's a flyweight. He's on his way to possibly becoming the GOAT "little man" in boxing history.

Also, this double header is at the Forum in LA which is a great boxing venue. So glad to not see this on casino property.

Funny how HBO is all of a sudden trying to push lower weight class guys. Showtime has been doing it for years.

Chocolatito....now THAT is a real fighter right there. I'm glad he's finally getting exposure in the US now because he's been doing this for several years.

Sounds like HBO is definitely behind Gonzalez now. And that's a great thing.
