Tonight at the Motorpoint Arena in Cardiff, Wales (Europe) will be a lightweight championship fight between undefeated Irish champion Terry Flanagan and Puerto Rican top contender, Orlando Cruz, who will move from the featherweight rank to the lightweight division after his defeat from featherweight Mexican champion, Orlando Salinas in 2013. What is so significant about this bout is that if Orlando Cruz wins the fight it will be the first time in the history of world boxing that a openly-admitted Gay boxer will receive a championship boxing title (not that there's anything wrong about that) but..folks... times are changing since the era of old champs like Joe (The Brown Bomber) Louis, Sugar Ray Robinson and Muhammed Ali isn't it! But I guess this is acceptable as long as Orlando don't make any derogatory comments after he's hit in the face like "Stop it!" or "Aye vente pa ya!"

Cont: No gay parade today! Orlando Cruz lost his bout last night on the 8th round to undefeated champion Terry Flanagan in the lightweight division causing the Tweeter channel don't go all ape-shit! I guess our society is not yet ready to crown the queen of boxing instead of a king!
