Chris John- always the Home Team

Yeah considering John has gone to Japan to fight on many occasions (that's the only place he'll go minus Indonesia) he should fight Lineares.

:-) look at it this way , texan.

him beating marquez in the rematch made pacman-babybull 2-3 fights away.

i guarantee if hatton-pacquiao doesn't happen. diaz-pacquiao happens next year after juan grabs another belt.

He's learning from the Thai's who are all 56-0 before the one time they step up and get brutally ko'ed. When they do, they are like ****, you never told me this wasn't an english as a second language teacher who needed the money.

Thing is John did not beat Marquez, and Marquez management screwed him over by taking that fight.

Here's the thing. Linares trains in Japan, hell that's a nice little 4 hour fight.
Guerrero will probably fly his ass out there if they didn't offer him 50 bucks like they did Marquez who for some crazy ass reason, took the money.

They are claiming it was worries about altitude. I thought Dragon's (his nickname, were invincible). He just didn't want to get slayed by a no-namer.

He's not a bad boxer, but fighting the chumps he has, has got to end.

the thais are pretty bad...... and people have the nerve to say manny cherry picks his fights.

pongsalek wongjonkam (spelling?) was undefeated in like 50 fights before he lost it to the japanese guy wasn't he? hard to judge the quality of these guys that don't leave home. and the brits wonder why we question joe's resume.........luckily for them joe was actually good.

Pongsalek Wongjonkam actually was a pretty good fighter. He was the first to beat Hussien Hussien. He should have faced Arce or Darchinyan though.

Still his reign was much better then John's.

yeah he's pretty good. you don't win that many fights without having some skill but still hard to judge.

even if you're fighting top quality guys......kinda makes it easier with homecourt advantage. sometimesyou greatness don't come out until face adversity and out of your comfort zone.
