    I think he could have stepped on the gas pedal a little bit more. I thought he had Marchiano hurt a couple times. Especially after the knockdown, which I thought it was a legit knockdown.

    Though to be honest, Marchiano impressed me more. No way did he win, but god his chin was solid.

      He had never been past 8 in his career though. He doesnt have the lungs or the experience yet. He'll get there though.

      I thought Marchiano had a very good chin, but he seemed to get buzzed a lot. Its just he fought back everytime he got buzzed. Never really hurt though, maybe to body with the KD, and maybe to head in round 12. A very good chin. but he's no Andrade

        Yeah, but the knockdown was in the 3rd or the 4th, I forgot. So I think he could have picked it up after that.

        Though I agree it was inexperience.

          The guy he fought was not human. So forget about blaming him for letting the fight go the distance.

          Nacho Beristain is a genius. His fighter's throw every punch with perfection, and they throw ridiculous combinations.

            i've been watching this guy for a while, one of my fav prospects, hes just 21 and doing good so far... That Marchiano guy had a ***ing great chin, i was like *** go down already!!....

            Mares has improved ALOT, i remember seeing him with Mayweather Sr and he was not as good as he is now with Nacho, u can see the style on Mares he gives his fighters, finito, marquez's, etc... nice ***ing counter-punching and combos.

              Man, Nacho is one of the greatest trainers. He doesn't seem to get his props that much but he turns his fighters into perfect machines. Really looking forward to what Mares does in the future. I just hope that his management choices are better than with 'Finito' and Marquez. I think due to bad choices, he could've had some of the greatest fighters in history, but there were some bad decisions made along the way. Anyway, good luck to Mares.

                The guy from Argentina ******... like most Argentinan fighters. (It's true guys, sorry, but most Argentines come out of their country with like a 30-0 record, and get stopped by Victoriano Sosa, or Henry Bruseles or somebody who isn't really quality). I knew this was supposed to be a wipeout, and it... was, but it wasn't.

                I can't believe this prospect olympian let some ****er who doesn't understand how to throw a punch bloody his nose.

                I was actually quite disappointed. He was in there against a punching bag, and he got his nose bloodied. Not only was it bloodied, it was gushing blood.

                  Mares has great skill but the ****er has lapses and gets hit too much, needs to really work on that head movement.

                    Sure; he was impressive, but could he be able to take those shots against a better fighter? I reserve my opinions till I see him fight tougher competition. Mares seems to have to many *****s in his armor to beat top level fighters; but then again, he may have fought that way tonight because he knew his opponent was overmatched.
