Anybody any given day could get caught the way Mares was caught specially when you don't cover yourself as well as he does. Losing in the first round doesn't mean much compared to getting out boxed or being beat for several rounds. One round doesn't really determine what would have been the end result of the fight. Yet Jhonny won in the best way possible and rightfully deserves the recognition.
For Mares this should be learning experience. He either was too confident, too proud or plain dumb to not hold when he could've. For sure next time he goes through the same problem, he may or should be smart enough to hold.
I would like to point out the class shown by both fighters at the end.
Specially the post fight comment by Mares "I'm not in boxing to retire undefeated but to fight the best". May this be a fact and not words unlike those who claim to be the best without fighting the best at given moments.
good post
and idk how this green thingy works but I guess I gave you 4 k?
That's also what makes them the most exciting in the sport.
And why is AA opening his mouth to give advice? From what I hear he just got a gift decision in Germany.
It was closer than the cards showed and IMO could have gone to either man.
No way was 117-111 even logical
Hypejob? Mares is no fkin prospect. He's a proven champ. The only hypejob was that bum Trout on your avi.

Funny, I actually thought he won that fight close, he definitely didn't get embarrassed and had his manhood taken away by a 10-1 underdog.

Boxing man.
1 year ago, Mares vs. Donaire was the biggest fight to be made. A year later, they both lose.
You have to strike the iron while its hot in this sport.
to be fair donaire is a much much better fighter then gonzalez...........donaire just lost to a super human in rigo. i always told people that donaire would make easy work of mares.
in a way the gbp top rank beefs kinda sheltered mares away from rigo and donaire. it worked to his benefit...........
Gonzalez's kryptonite is southpaws, this is old news. Jhonny Gonzalez is a straight up beast above 122 (against orthodox fighters that is)
Him and Nacho go together like PB&J..
trust that in the rematch, you'll be saying that his kryptonite is also mares. mares got caught in this one, a veces pasa asi. i'm tired of saying the word, fuk. i'm going to bed.
..... it's like the dolphins losing the superbowl.
props to jhonny, i've always knew he was a stud. hopefully he can make some serious dough his next fight. great fight for him.
missed the fight. how bad was the KO?
Dirty man, Mares went down hard on the first KD, beautiful left hook. The stoppage wasn't a bad KD either, but he didn't go down as hard.
And schooled Donaire. So whats your point? I mean, what does that say about Donaire? Got schooled by a guy who was dropped by Cordoba and staggered by Marroquin.
Sit down clown. You were real quiet when Donaire got beat weren't you?
You didn't even read the post I quoted you dumb mother****a, that Rigotard I quoted was laughing at PDL even though Broner arguably lost to him. I just reminded him of the guys that gave Rigo problems, this has nothing to do with Donaire, the Donaire victory did not erase those fights from history, Rigo still struggled against those guys. I wanted to put things in perspective because that guy was acting like PDL is a bum to be laughed at. Next time try to understand my posts and the posts I quote before replying to me.

That's the reason why promoters protect their fighters so much.

Then Mares is out and stands toe to toe.....very sad. sucks to see him lose so bad, he doesn't deserve that
Da ****? What does that even mean? Anybody could lose that way. :poke:

Agree, he had 30 seconds after he got up from the first KD, he could've made it had he held and stayed away. Needed to fight smart, pride was his downfall.
true dat, true dat.
that's what you call a good problem.
i'm taking this one hard, coño fukn carajo .... but mares will be back .... i CANNOT wait for this one.

Hopefully, because I'll personally fly to Vegas after getting a loan from the bank and put it on Jhonny.
Abner is overated and there is nothinf special about him people. HYPEJOB. He would lose every single round to RIGO and get knocked out in the process.
You can't say that based on this remember the triangle theory.
Mares also tried to box and that was a mistake something I'm willing to bet anything he won't do with Rigo.
If he fights Rigo I think Mares would tuck his chin in and attack his body with the occasional low blow those Goldenboy judges can't seem to see.
Rigo is a beast though and might have enough power to KO him coming in.
Either way it won't look anything like this. I think from here on out when ever Mares fights a good boxer puncher he's not taking chances he's brawling.
Why the hell was Mares trading? Dude needs to hold and move away. Was swinging wild when he had NO legs under him. Mares will come back though, he just go caught by a big puncher.
