Baily ruined Urango's chin; Alexander can be Great

Juan Urango has always had a great chin. Bailey dropped him HARD in their fight. A lot of times, guys just don't fully recover from the kind of shot Randall caught Juan with. And Urango is a puncher; when punchers get timed, with their feet planted ready to bomb, they get bombed themselves. Funny KD by the way, that uppercut looked like it took both of Urango's feet off the canvas str8 up before he fell down, lol. Devon Alexander... WOW. The kid looks big for the weight class, never realized his size until I seen him in there with Juan Urango last night. He's not HUGE, but he can definitely make the move to Welter. Great chin... Urango caught him clean with big time punches and he took them very well. Said he was never hurt, granted I think he seen most of Urango's slow bombs, giving him the "brace" time to receive the shots well. Big time win for Devon last night, moves him into the top 5 in a STACKED division IMO. Can't wait to see these guys get it on over the next couple years... Tim Bradley Juan Manuel Marquez Devon Alexander Marcos Maidana Amir Khan Victor Ortiz Nate Campbell Paulie Malifaggi Zab Judah Ricky Hatton Throw Manny Pacquiao back into the 140lbs mix and we got pure fireworks at Junior Welterweight.

Devon's not that kinda puncher. Bailey softened him up. Do yourselves a favor and watch the fight. The single KD shot was tremendous, but he (Bailey) caught Urango with plenty of them right hands throughout the fight. Prior to Bailey, Urango had never been down. Big time punchers ruin fighters. Yes Urango won that fight, but he took some damaging shots that I believe reduced his ability to take a shot. It's common boxing knowledge, fighters suffer from long term damage after receiving concussive shots like the punches Bailey landed on Urango. Roy has never been the same after the Tarver KO. Marquez chin has been suspect after the first Manny fight. Vargas never recovered from the Tito fight. Hearns chin was reduced to crackers after the Hagler TKFO. I can go on and on with examples. It's been studied. Fighters suffer from long term damage after concussive shots and beatdowns. timing + speed = power

nah Urangos chin is fine and one punch wont ruin a career. tell that to all the lennox lewis fans and theyll eat you alive its a series of hard punches that do residual damage. not just one.

not really. cotto was dropped against torrez but not against Margarito. it all depends on the styles and fight that's in front of you. devon just caught urango which would have blown anyones head off @ 140. it's all very simple stuff, you're just making it difficult for yourself LOL You really don't know what you're talking about, you're a newbie fan and it shows. Torrez did not catch Cotto with the kind of shot Bailey cracked Urango with. I love how you morons quickly bring in examples of other fights that are completely irrelevant in an attempt to support your argument. Bailey is a one punch KO artist, and he did some major damage to Juan with that shot. If it was anyone else he would have put them to sleep. Juan's got a good beard, but it took some long term damage from that single Bailey bomb.

early stoppage last night that was a great uppercut but urango could and should have been allowed to continue im not so sure that urango was on his way to being truly kod in that fight I agree, he always has a punchers chance.

that uppercut wouldve dropped anyone at 140. had nothing to do with bailey. Perhaps, I still feel Bailey *****ed Urango's armor. When fighters who have never really been hurt, get dropped the way Randall dropped Juan, they tend to get dropped again. It takes something out of them. I guarantee we'll see Juan get chin checked more and more from this point forward, especially after last night's KO.
