Leo Santa Cruz says he took 5 weeks off. That must've been like an eternity for him. He's now back at the gym #boxing
Moving up in weight isn't a big deal anymore, specially in these midget weight classes where you eat a sandwich and you're already in the next division. What bothers me most is that no one tries to clean up their division before moving up; they just win a vacant paper title and move-in to the next division. What a joke!:pat:
Great addition to one of the best divisions in Boxing.
I'd love to see Santa Cruz-Mares but it looks like Mares is heading to 126.
Some good matchs for him there.
Good move by GBP. Move Mares up and Santa Cruz steps in @ 122. He should've fought Moreno first @ 118.
I really wanted to see Leo unify with Yamanaka or Moreno.
interesting that mares is moving to 126 and leo santa cruz is moving to 122..who's ducking who? or is gbp just protecting their prized possessions..
oscar can't bear to watch two of his favorite kids fight each other i bet...
I am glad to hear this. 118 is weak, nothing really there for him.
I'm sure he could of stayed at 118 & made several easy defenses. This is
just what boxing needs young, hungry fighters who dare to be great.
He'll be a great addition to an already stacked 122 class.
