This match is being televised on tape delay as a form of infomercial. Arthur Abraham is being positioned to face Kelly Pavlik. Showtime decided to broadcast this match at the last minute to increase Abraham's exposure with the boxing audience in the United States and increase their chances of landing the Pavlik-Abraham match that seems destined to air on HBO.

Staples Center-Los Angeles, California
This was originally going to be a 2 match card. The opener was going to be Chris John defending his 126-pound title against Rocky Juarez in a rematch of their controversial draw from February. However, John had to pull out of the match on June 21 due to an undisclosed blood disorder that was preventing him from training. John fainted after 3 rounds of sparring on June 20. The blood work done at the doctor's office showed the mysterious blood disorder. It is reportedly nothing serious. John had already passed his blood test for hepatitis, HIV and other serious blood diseases administered 2 weeks earlier by the California State Athletic Commission. This blood disorder is thought to be something along the lines of anemia. Juarez had the opportunity to stay on this card by facing a replacement opponent, Mario Santiago, but declined. Santiago boxes out of the southpaw stance, while John boxes out of the orthodox stance. Juarez said he could not adjust to a new opponent boxing out of the opposite stance on such short notice. This entire situation is a huge disappointment. This event has drawn a good crowd of 8,600, but probably would have drawn a few thousand more with the John-Juarez match on the card. Had Juarez faced Santiago the crowd would have likely grown by at least a few hundred. It also means, because of the limited amount of television dates Juarez is not going to be on HBO again this year.
