any gifs of the temple shot and KDs?

So it was a temple shot that got to him then. Yeah, those are hard to recover from, they just take your equilibrium away. I saw him get knocked down a couple of times and rocked early in his career against guys who didn't have big power and were smaller than him at 126, I thought the move up to 130 might've helped his punch resistance a bit. Yep. Left hook that went straight through his guard. He had his right up to block but it looked as though he thought it was longer than it was. So it went straight through and cracked him right on the temple and he went down hard. Done for after that. There was no way he was going to recover. I like his style so I hope he can recover well, beat Salgado in a rematch and then relocate to some better people. We'll see.

Damn dude got knocked out with a punch that was thrown last week.

I actually considered his chin good. He had taken some hard shots before and not moved in a number of fights of his I've got. No one can take a hard temple shot though so it didn't really matter how good or shaky his chin might have been. A perfect left hook to the temple and he was done. :nonono: Incredible.

I knew his chin was shaky but damn, didn't see this coming. Gets hit by right hands but didn't expect it to be such a big deal against someone like Salgado. Big upset in my book.

I literally spent hours gassing this dude up to my father as the next big thing, the next prodigy in boxing. Please give me some background on his opponent. He's ok. Nothing special. Undefeated, fought some decent guys but nothing major. This was a big step up. I guess there will be a rematch and I will still pick Linares in that. Once he got tagged with that temple shot in the first it was over. While you can say there is no luck in boxing, only hard training, I think that shot was one of those one off kind of things and I can't see it happening twice. Let's hope it happens again so we can see how he comes back from this. Wow. I'm still shocked to be honest. Still, I think he needs to leave his current people and move over to America. He has the right skill, image and all that shit to be very good and popular in my opinion so I can imagine he would do well from there with some trainers that will focus more on his defense because that is really his only liability at the moment.

This loss very much reminds me of Bojados first loss back when he actually cared about fighting, Lineares can bounce back in the same way because he has the skills to do so. Lineares, like Bojado, i really had high hopes for. Very few guys really come up and you see it early that they "have it" Im willing to excuse this loss because the fact is, hes Linares still has a lot of talent, I haven't seen the fight yet so maybe he just got caught cold. He's young and was already thinking about relocating to the States so I think this loss might spur him on to do that. Don't count the guy out yet.

This explains him pretty well. I saw the fight and wasn't really impressed, I thought he could make a solid fighter in the future with more tweaking, Linares was also quite a big step up in class for him so this is a pretty big shock to me.

I've been saying all along this guy is way to overrated on this forum. He looked good against Larios, but in all of his fights since he has looked like nothing more than a decent fighter. People talked about this guy like he was already a proven hall of famer or something. Also.......damn this sucks for Golden Boy. I think we talked about this before, crazy shit.

I literally spent hours gassing this dude up to my father as the next big thing, the next prodigy in boxing. Please give me some background on his opponent. This explains him pretty well. Juan Salgado – Salgado showed in a fight with Marcos Licona that he can go to a plan B. In that fight Licona did not go down from an early bombardment, and Salgado switched up and went with precision punches to win on the scorecards. This is the fight where I got the distinct impression Salgado is not as good as finisher as his 67% kayo ratio suggests, and that he can be pushed backwards by a physical brawler. Salgado is solid in every area, without showing any elite traits or flashes of brilliance. In a fight against Ivan Valle Salgado displayed maturity beyond his 24 years, refusing to get in the trenches and he found his second wind in a tough fight. After the Valle fight Salgado was out of the ring for nineteen months, and his two victories since returning were not against challenging opposition. Not an ideal way to enter a contest against someone as classy as Linares. I saw the fight and wasn't really impressed, I thought he could make a solid fighter in the future with more tweaking, Linares was also quite a big step up in class for him so this is a pretty big shock to me.

oh well. having the 0 losses isn't that important haha

I guess I was wrong, Soto would have beaten Linares.

They just don't make them like they use to. Sad but true

ahhh I have to see the fight before I say anymore

HE doesn't get hit that much but damn can't believe he lost He gets hit clean by fighters who ain't world class, whatever. He got stopped, time to get a real trainer.

I've been saying it for awhile that he gets hit too much by guys who ain't world class, he hasn't really fought anybody besides Larios yet everyone was saying he's one of the best in the sport. Can't wait to see the Video. HE doesn't get hit that much but damn can't believe he lost
