First of all, Litzau is a young guy. Im not a litzau fan yet, but hes a very immature fighter.
He got ****y, fought off his gameplan, and traded with a flat footed power puncher.
You could tell early in that round, litzau wasnt going to last. You saw him bounce around beautifully in round 7, and u saw him tripping over his own feet in the 8th.
He was physically done. And Hernandez, IMPRESSIVELY, pulled energy out of absolutely no where, and knocked out a ****y LITZAU.
In a way im glad it happened. #1, it made the fight an absolute joy to watch and KO finished it off beautifully.
and 2, its a HUGE wake up call for Litzau. He doesnt have the experience, or the ring smarts yet. He needs the constant aid from his corner for entire rounds, but u cant get the aid during a round obviously. this all comes with time.
But he was able to brawl, even with his glass chin (he took some BIG shots though) and boxed beautifully. And it was all entertaining. I think the KO will only raise questions about him, not damper his status.
He should take easy fights, build up his confidence, and then come back with a REMATCH against HERNANDEZ.
I feel, when reviewing the careers of all time greats, that its very important to avenge those losses while your still young. So when someone says, "well this nobody Knocked him out in the 8th round." you come back with, "yea, but not even a year later, he avenged the loss and knocked him out in 7."
You know????
And as for MIRANDA, that is some power. A lot of guys who get nailed on the top of the head get their equilibrium messed up but they arent actually hurt.
This guy had both. For a while this guy was very hurt. Miranda has some VERY powerful punches.
I want this guy to take on TAYLOR. FORGET abraham for now, take on taylor while your hot. I would pick taylor in that fight, but THAT IS A FIGHT i want to see. and i want it badly.
Both guys can punch viscously
