Boxing lines from all over the world have popped up at the sport books for this weekend.  The biggest new event getting new odds is the “Premier Boxing Champions“, which airs Sunday afternoon on CBS.  The main event comes to us from the MGM Grand as sensational, undefeated Cuban Rances Barthelemy (22-0) takes on tough Mexican veteran Antonio DeMarco (31-4-1).

Also on the broadcast, which puts boxing on Sunday matinee, features undefeated prospect Sammy Vasquez (22-0) of Pennsylvania as he steps up to take on his toughest competition to date in the form of Nigeria’s Wale Omotoso (25-1). The PBC series has the MGM Grand locked up this weekend, as Saturday night they air the Adrien Broner versus Shawn Porter Welterweight fight.

In Denmark, super middleweight Patrick Nielsen (25-1) defends his WBA International belt against veteran Charles Adamu (23-6).  At 24 years old, Nielsen has his sites set on bigger things, as his lone loss came against Dmitry Chudinov last June in a failed bid at an interim world title.

In Italy, France’s Michel Soro goes for the EBU title at middleweight on a relatively short turn around time.  His last fight saw him earn a fourth round TKO victory over Glen Tapia in New Jersey on May 8.  Opposing him is Italy’s Emanuele Blandamura, who is 23-1, with his one loss coming to Billy Joe Saunders of England in a fight where he was attempting to win this same EBU Middleweight belt.
