I knew Angulo was a hot prospect but when the fight was announced I thot mayorga's experience would prevail especially if he fought him like he fought Vargas and Mosley. Kermit Cintron beating him shows that he's gotta work on that boxing although no one seems to talk about how Angulo was taking those late rounds. Mayorga's chin is steel in rounds 1-3 then its solid up until the 11th or twelth if he's been getting bombed all night. I think he knows how strong Angulo is and would try to bang in spurts and try to out box him
Do you think Angulo can beat a healthy Mayorga still at this point?
I don't think Angulo was 100% against Cintron. He looked very sluggish, not to take away from Cintron's intelligent boxing tactics. Assuming the old Angulo returns I think he handles Mayorga convincingly.
Yeah, Cintron does that to people when they feel his power. So lets start making excuses for Angulo.

Mayorga is an awkward mofo, hes not elite, but a real threat for everybody. I dont think Angulo is ready for him.

Good question... I always gave Mayorga the edge in that match-up. Mayorga has more experience, better boxing ability, a very awkward style, is the naturally stronger man and has better punching power. They both have a ton of heart, but I think Mayorga wins.
