Jorge Linares really is that good.

Excellent balace, vreat composure for such a young fighter, excellent array of punches, good power, fights well off the back or front foot...

Maybe the best up & coming fighter in boxing in my opinion..


Here he is winning the title against top veteran Oscar Larios..
Larios had a couple of great fights with Israel Vazquez, & also gave Pacquaio a tough time over 12 inspite of giving away quite a lot of weight.

I've heard Dib is a talented up and comer but looking at his resume, it seems he's being chucked in at the deep end against one of the brightest talents in Boxing.

I hope he makes for an exciting match, but Linares is something else. I can't see this going for more then 5 rounds.

Hasn't Dib got something to do with Shane Mosely?

Shane is leaving his wife for Dib. No, seriously, Mosley sees a lot of potential in Dib. I saw Dib's last fight and he struggled against a not so good fighter.
Picture a poor man's NAZ, with much slower hands and no power.

:D

That makes sense. They seem to love him a bit to much.

Honestly im usually bias for Australians. But i just don't see a lot of talent in Dib.

No disrespect. I hope he shocks the world. But i just can't see it happening.

I do as well. It's a lot like Shannon Taylor vs Mosley, except Dib isn't that much of a dickhead as Taylor.
