Mccalman made it tough for Pacheco. Cheatham needs to lose his license at this point. I had Lemos winning 7-5. I guess you could say a 115-113 Hitchens card is somewhat believable but this just helps kill any interest in the sport.
lol everyone on the forum knew it was coming
I turned this off after the 5th round. Hitchinson got no warnings for excessive holding-on-for-dear-life and was being handled well by the guy who was getting warnings for a few supposed low blows.
But I knew which way this was going on the cards unless Lemos got the KO. We all know when they put their up-and-comer in with the "other guy", they expect him to win one way (with mismatched skill) or the other (with influence).
Hearn is a scumbag. Zero shame.
This sort of reminds me when Ray Ford got a gift against Edward Vasquez. But why would Eddie feel shame? He already has the solution: Matias. Promoters don't feel shame, they give you the problem and sell you the solution.
Feel bad for Lemos, but if people want to see Hitchins get humbled, well, they are gonna see something worse happen to him. Matias will make it look like a horror movie
All through the build-up, I just knew that Hitchins was going to regret all of the shxt he talked. He was clearly underestimating Lemos' capability, but a swarmer with power is simply a bad style match-up for him. I think Hitchins will find more opportunities against Matias because Matias' turns up the heat steadily instead of coming out gunz blazing like Lemos. Matias is less likely to tire down the stretch....and once Hitch starts wilting, Matias will pour it on him and break him.
I don't expect Hearn to keep it 100% about what he saw, but I know he's secretly hoping that Matias handles Hitchins if/when the time comes.
lol at Mannix mentioning Love, I was just about to say that’s the fight theyre going to make next for Hitchins :lol1:
Almost zero Chance it’s Matias-Paro (Matias imo) next for him.
Put him in with Gollaz Valenzuela at least
Shameful robbery. Lemos won and clearly.
117-111 Hitchins is one of the worst cards you'll see this year.
All 3 cards are horrific, which 7 rounds did the hugger win?
I feel bad for Lemos, he won the fight and then got robbed. It's easy to see the facts just by reading this thread.
This is the dark side of boxing that we all hate. It's like a bad son...you know he's bad, is doing bad stuff...but still is your son.
Lol.
Cruz would destroy Lemos easily, he Is TaylorMade for him.
And Cruz Is waiting a big fight.
Zepeda? Camarón? Lol, he Is 135, at the top for a title shot.
Maybe Barroso.
Chon Zepeda not Camaron
I really hope a US promoter signs Lemos, he is a must watch fighter. Lemos vs Cruz would be instant FOTY, but there are tons of fights that would be tremendously entertaining with him; Barroso, Ponce, Zepeda, Pablo Cesar Cano etc.
Lol.
