Boxers by their very nature are impatient folks. Whether it’s landing the big punch, securing the big fight or winning all the world titles, they want it all and they want it now. Rau’shee Warren is a bit of an exception.
Robert Easter Jr. had to push himself further than ever before in his last fight to become a world champion. Now he’s hoping to put on an even bigger show in his first title defense in his hometown.
Luis Cruz’s performance in his last fight was akin to that of a professional golfer who is cruising along with six-shot lead with three holes to play when he inexplicably starts shanking balls all over the course.
