LIAM PARO expects a much better version of Richardson Hitchins to challenge him Saturday night than the fighter Gustavo Lemos almost upset April 6 in Las Vegas. That said, Paro, 25-0 (15 KOs) doesn’t think Hitchins, 18-0 (7 KOs), deserves this shot at the Australian southpaw’s IBF junior welterweight title.

Additionally, the Ragin’ Cajuns took a step forward this past summer when they were the College Station Regional runner-up behind eventual national semifinalist Texas A&M.A great accomplishment for the Cajuns? Absolutely. Satisfied? Absolutely not. This program still has plenty of unfinished business. The Cajuns have a storied history over the last 20 or so years, but they haven’t reached…
