Should mares have taken a knee

nah man Broner aint never been layed out unconcious like mares lol Mares was not unconscious ,and he wasn't getting worked over by a past prime,pillow-fisted, club fighter either. LOL.

That's what I was going to say. I don't know why people used to talk so highly of Mares when his best wins came with a hell of a lot of low blows. Yah I didn't get it either..his constant fouling and dirty tactics frustrated the he'll out of me. I'm just glad that sweet karma was served in the form of a beautiful left hook by Gonzalez...Upset of the year!

That's what I was going to say. I don't know why people used to talk so highly of Mares when his best wins came with a hell of a lot of low blows. Selective amnesia is my guess...but what happened to mares wasn't the result of poor defense or sheer luck on gonzalezs part but instead sweet sweet karma for his blatant fouling...

Should have punched him in the balls...would have given him extra time to recover... Seems like mares has lost the fire and the tenacity to attack the balls like he used to..was a successful strategy in beating agbeko, darchinyan and even Moreno...he needs to get back to his roots as a rabid ball punching pyscho That's what I was going to say.

Someone hasnt heard of ERRoL Spence. Broner got SPENcED... It happened.

Marvin Hagler, in the ring after Thomas Hearns had just defeated Juan Domingo Roldan to become the first boxer ever to win championships in four different weight divisions (speaking to Hearns): "You did something very good, which I liked. You held. That was the smartest thing you did." Thomas Hearns: "I had to learn that." Well, I think Abner Mares needs to learn that too.

only puerto rican fighters take knees I ain't know Tim Bradley was Puerto Rican.

should have tried and clinch...i mean if you're that badly hurt then there's no shame in clinching or back pedaling...or something. clinching is only a ***** move when you throw a couple of punches then clinch like ward....or alexander or hopkins... This right here!!!! Exact reasons why those guys are my least favorite fighters to watch. Anyway, Mares should have tied him up n try to survive the round.

BERNARD HOPKINS EX ‏@THEREALBHOP All guts no brains #MaresGonzalez do they teach defense today? Some of these guys have too much macho pride.

That's what happnes when you aint teach em defense. My dude Bernard know whats up. Face first brawlers like Mares and Sana Cruz aint never gona reach what skillful fighters like money may ward rigo and broner have done. Mares is a more accomplished fighter than Broner.

only puerto rican fighters take knees By the way....have you reviewed the Mexicans who quit on the stool or took knees and/or cheated lately? Let me refresh your mind.... Castillo Ortiz Hoya Israel Vasquez Raul Marquez Julio C. Chavez Tony Ayala Jr Julio Diaz . Marco Antonio Rubio Rafael Marquez Israel Vasquez Jhonny Gonzales Alfonzo Sanchez Tomas Rojas Castillo chavez Margaplaster :poke: Mexicans chose to quit on their stools like the great Chavez, Rafa, and Oscar. None of them were beaten by plaster wraps when they chose the safety of their stools. Legends... :dance: 100% Correct!

I don't see the big deal of taking a knee. People make it seem like quitting. I think its a good strategy for fighters that are hurt to make it out of the round and recover.

He didn't take a knee because he knew some douchebag Boxingscene poster would then put him in his sig picture.

Oscar i can understand. He was old , drained and had nothing to prove. Oscar gave us great fights and faught the best and was Competitive with everyone he faught

only puerto rican fighters take knees/sp/ found a way

Practice tactics

only puerto rican fighters take knees

hes not puerto rican doe That's right and the reason he got exposed! Padded record just like Canelo and other overly rated Mexican fighters. Mares is a dirty figther who clearly could not handle Abeco or whats his name and resolved by low blowing him ovet 15 times! Puertorican figthers are tested and come to the plate with real resumes! Go hate some other place numbnuts! Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

yeah yeah, and he shoulda blocked that damn left hook
