hows phillipines boxing doing? it aint shit.
donaire, viloria, and pacquiao all won title fights recently. two of those guys are in the top ten p4p. concepcion and banal won impressively as well.
mares is the real deal. bernabes overrated IMO. way overrated i see nothing special in him and he hasn't fought anyone. being filippino, i am going to root for him though. i have more faith in banal than concepcion though.
I personally think that Mares has more of a future, but this last year sucked, exposure-wise. Injury just hurt that year. Nonetheless, he seems to be on the comeback trail, perhaps like Robert Guerrero, where he'll beat some bums in the first of three fights kind of thing. Hopefully he doesn't pull a Guerrero and just whoops some ass.
Comcepcion, I've seen VERY SELDOM. Nonetheless, he could be someone I watch on a regular basis if they match him well. He's a solid fighter.
and hatton taking jmm's fight as well.
without oscar and hatton , pac-jmm 3 would have happened by now.
that's right, I can't believe I forgot to say that.
Who is more talented between these two, and who has a brighter future?
Two different fighters and got different fighting style. If you talk about counter punching, combinations you can choose Mares. If you like power, accuracy you can choose Concepcion. Abe has some mad power in both hands. I see Abe training last time he punch so hard.
Mares needs a ltle more fine tunning. He WILL be the next JMM thanks to Nacho. I really have high hopes for him IF he stays healthy!
Nacho is going to mold him into another great warrior like he does best.
The good thing is mares is with goldeb boy promotions i beleive and they resurrected jmm carrerr
yes, they have done good for JMM, except DLH taking JMM's fight with Pac.
they both look like they can be a force in the years to come ... i;ve seen mares here and there on soloboxeo etc and think hes a pretty talented boxer puncher ... and abe looks like a beast, wonder how well he;d do with a good counter punchers that can time his in and out attacks ... i;ve also heard abe can lose concentration in bouts but i dunno
