Wow....
I wasn't to impressed with Jacobs... Another win on his belt.. He should step up pretty soon.. He is taking the right direction though, so I can't say anything about that.. A couple of more fights like this and he'll be ready.
Juan Manuel Lopez... Wow.. I had predicted that Juan Manuel Lopez would feel him out in round one and cruise to a 7-8th round KO, but Lopez would only stalk Medina to the ropes and unleashed a devastating combination to the head then the body to drop him and end the fight a little later on in round 1. When will Lopez get his time to shine? I mean like seriously... He is ready! HE IS READY! The guy is very powerful, and looked like a beast in his past 3 fights. At the right time as well.. Right when he is stepping up. Great stuff! Lopez has a bright future.
Victor Ortiz fought well. Wow what a left hand.. A potential superstar.. He sounded like Oscar De La Hoya when he spoke.. That's who he reminded me of a bit... Fought well tonight, but I never knew about his background..... Did his parents abandon him? or did they pass away? I'll keep an eye on him.... Im pretty sure HBO will have him on a BAD card for next year.
The main event.... Holy ****ing ****. I was going for Manny to win this by a close SD, but he just tee'd off on DLH all night! Since round 1! De La Hoya couldn't answer back! Since round 1 when Manny landed that left hand (which I stated in my thread would be a problem) It was all history from right there. Manny started connecting and got confident (Also what I said in my thread "That Manny must get his respect early on.) Not only did Manny gained his respect... He took De La Hoya's heart. Unbelievable! Who would've thought this? You can never count anyone out in a boxing match. Freddie Roach was on point, when I thought he was just saying that to hype the fight, but what I seen Roach working with Manny on the HBO show was slipping the jab and throw to the body, and a lot of head movement. Manny went to and then class and passed his final with an A+! Manny would've probably made DLH take a knee if he had thrown body shots during his flurries late in the fight. He would throw a hook and DLH would lower his hands, thats when I would yell "THROW A ****ING UPPERCUT THEN A BODY SHOT"
Great stuff from Manny.. Im very happy for him and happy myself! Manny has motivated a lot of people.. He has motivated me... Never count out the little people moving up. Styles make fights, and age can also be a factor if matched up with a style that will make you work even harder. Also... When was the last time fought a southpaw? Pernell Whitaker? I mean come on.. He should have fought a southpaw prior to this fight. Manny took his heart away..... I can't believe that ****. Speed and power. Made him quit.
I mean who would've thought of this? Manny deserves respect. A LOT of it! he is the P4P kind bar none! No one has done in this era what he has done. Accept it.. If not you are just making yourself look ******.
I want to see
Juan Manuel Lopez Vs Izzy Vasquez or Rafael Marquez
Manny Pacquiao Vs Ricky Hatton
MAKE IT HAPPEN!!
PS: ALSO Boxrec better change that P4P list. That **** is out of date. No way Calzaghe stays at number 1. Sorry.

They loved the knockouts. The destruction of De La Hoya was even worse!
