Anyone hear about this?

I didn't realize it until someone mentioned it to me. This should be a very interesting fight with the contrast in styles.

Mayol has been destroying guys, and Akakura is as slick as they come.

Very interesting
When do they fight and will it be televised?

I will like Mayol to win because i will like to see mayol vs calderon that will be a good fight

This fight has been talked about several times in these forums. Also, Mayol & Eagle are always mentioned in almost every Ivan Calderon thread. Two posters here even have a $1,000 bet on Calderon vs. Eagle(assuming Eagle gets past Mayol).

Rodel Mayol has decent power but I'm not so sure he is experienced enough for a veteran like Eagle.

Go Rodel Mayol. Bring Philippine boxing on the map once again in these lower weight class. We got this. Let's get there. Holla!

deep down im laughing for some reason.

coz u hate filipinos

and boom boom is undefeated

It's a pick 'em kind of a fight, both fighters are very capable of beating each other. Eagle has the advantage in world championship fight experience and a fine technician, but Rodel has that 1-punch equalizer.

Eagle Kyowa, in an interview here, has said that he respects Rodel's power and he will try to box more. Use the ring and get the necessary points to win every round...he'll take it one round at a time. If Rodel gets frustrated and gets reckless, he'll take advantage of such mistakes and counterpunch him. He said that from the tapes he saw of Mayol, he noticed that all of his opponents were KOd with the left (hooks and uppercuts), so he'll just circle to his (Mayol's) rightside to nullify the left and jab him all night.


My take on this - Eagle wins by decision. But, I won't be surprised either if Mayols stops him in the middle rounds.

Probably not gonna happen. I read somewhere that Mayol's team reckons that Calderon is a bad style match-up for him. But, they may pursue Iron Boy's WBO belt if they fail to beat Kyowa.

only way for Rodel to win is by KO, and we know he got the power to do just that ....

I never said i hated them, whats wrong with laughing?


and i got no beef with ricans, just that iwatchboxing comes out with his "i think this" "i think that" for mexicans, i just came out with my "i know why" ;)

Not necessarily bro. Both are non japanese being handled by japanese managers.
