Victor Ortiz Vs. Marcos Rene Maidana This Saturday

I don't know a whole lot about these fighters, but it looks like HBO has a pretty good line up of matches this Saturday.

The other two matches I saw mentioned were Juan Manuel Lopez vs. Olivier Lontchi and Chris John vs. Rocky Juarez.

Here's a little bit about the main bout from the HBO site:

HBO Sports serves up a hot twin bill when HBO BOXING AFTER DARK: VICTOR ORTIZ VS. MARCOS RENE MAIDANA is seen SATURDAY, JUNE 27 at 10:00 p.m. (live ET/tape-delayed PT), from the Staples Center in Los Angeles, exclusively on HBO. 

The main event features an intriguing 12-round junior welterweight showdown between hot prospect Victor Ortiz (24-1-1, 19 KOs) from Oxnard, Cal. and Marcos Rene Maidana (25-1, 24 KOs) of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Last seen on HBO in March, when he scored a standout win over Mike Arnaoutis, Ortiz is meeting the his most formidable opponent to date. The winner of this 140-pound showdown will fast-track through the talent-rich division.
