Boxing Update: Edwin Rodriguez vs Donovan George, Andy Lee...

Spoke to Boxing Promoter Lou DiBella yesterday (Friday), he says that its,"just about done," a fight between super middleweights Edwin Rodriguez and Donovan George for March 17th which will open up the HBO broadcast before middleweight champion Sergio Martinez faces Mathew Macklin at the Theater in Madison Square Garden.

Yeah, it may not be a true battle of world-class participants but I think it could be a fun slugfest.

As for Andy Lee, who was slated to open up this card, it looks like he is focused on a bout with WBA middleweight belt-holder Felix Sturm. Lee and Emanuel Steward have been real antsy about getting a title shot and they believe Sturm is ripe for the picking.
