How much time does the great Iron Boy have left? Segura is such a powerful puncher and Ivan has been slowing down but I still see a Calderon UD. The "problem" is where would he go from a loss or a win? He has dominated 2 divisions and is old. He mentioned moving up but he is undersized for 108 which in itself amazes me. I really would like to see him face Wonjongkam if he moved up. Anyways, I thought I would get the ball rolling for the fight this weekend and pay respect to a great fighter.

he has been much easier to hit in his last few fights. I think win or lose he should think about hanging them up. Fighters don't age like fine wine, especially the lowest weight class guys.

He's likely to lose this fight. He has noticeably slowed and 35 for a little guy is ancient.

Calderon's reflexes and legs are slowing down rapidly, he might be able to beat Segura because he's vastly inexperienced and relies too much on his power, but if Calderon hangs around any longer he'll receive his first professional loss.

I wanted to stop short of saying he was going to lose, but I too have my doubts about him making it through unscathed again.

I'll be ordering the Calderon-Segura fight. I'll be here to give round by round coverage also. I'll prolly be the only one since everyone will be tuned into the UFC card.
