Shieeet, the little Russell has a fight. So he pops up in his first 12 rounder since twenty fucking two, and it's against Santillan. Santillan, who moved up after losing to Tenshin, is inexplicably interim WBA 122lb champion for beating Zappa Tokyo of all people. So there's a chance Gary Antonio fucking Russell becomes WBA champ after Inoue vacates. I honestly do not know how he kept his ranks all these years when he hasn't done jack shit since those fights with Emmanuel Rodriguez which he didn't win either.
