    How good is Johns opponet?

    I don't like that again there rushing Rocky into a title shot. I would like to see him keep working on his output, he showed good footmovement coming forward and being able to jump out when needed. But he shouldn't be rushed again.

    John is a good fighter but most important is that he move a whole lot. Reminds me of Medina how he bounces on his toes and throws punchs at the same time.

    And i aggree, 126 is not a weight where Rocky should be, they are hurting him by draining his weight. Wouldn't be bad if he went to 135 his power is that good. He has the skills just got to put them togethter again like he did in the Olympics and as he did in his earlier fights.

      John's next oppnenot has a solid 28-0-1 record. Current OPBF champion and rated #4 by the ring at featherweight.

      Has a win over Nedal Hussien and a couple other solid japanese fighters that were undefeated. It seems like his record isn't that padded.

        John would outbox the **** of Juarez to a lopsided UD.
        I hope this fight happens.

          I bet you haven't seen the fight, no way in God name was it a robbery. It was close i'll give it that. The only westerner there was The Ring magazine's main writer who had it for John, fightreport.net covered the fight and gave it to John. Sweetscience.com had it for John.

              Rocky would need to really get his ass in gear to have a chance in that fight. He cant hang around sleeping for 8 rounds before he realizes its a boxing match.
              I know its a tougher fight than John is used to, but still its the exact kind of "tough fight" he isnt going to lose.

                Barrios is the 1st time Rocky's done sumthin at 130, and it was a comeback KO at that. He needs to just stay at 126, and a John fight don't sound bad. I think he could win it.

                  I bet you didn't see the fight! Marquez won nearly every round of that fight. John could barely land a clean punch on JMM. No way John won, Marquez boxed circles around that dude! I saw the fight, so I can say JMM easily outclassed John and should have received a lop sided UD in his favor!

                    wtf are you talking about? You clearly never saw the fight. The judges including the press row scoring had it a lopsided UD for John. John won the fight, he befuddled and outboxed JMM all 12 rounds except for a couple where he took a break(he can't be doin that **** against a desperate juarez). Why hasn't JMM been rallying for a rematch with john if it was so close and controversial? Insteaf he rallies for rematches with Pac-man(theirs fights were actually close)

                      I said I saw the fight and I don't have to refer to a biased press row for support. If you think John won you don't know **** about boxing. Did you see the fight?
