I never heard of cruz before tonight and i missed the fight. That is pretty crazy that he is openly gay in such a sport like boxing.

La Loca???

Yeah lol and la loca is nothing compared with other nicknames i read about him tonight lol, even puertorriqueños was having fun with that.

Very impressive fight for me because even Erik Morales said Leonilo Miranda was a great fighter and another good things about him. I know Miranda had no names in his records, and he always fought in the state of Sonora, but had a record of 30-0-28, and he was #5 AMB, and #9 CMB, so i wasn't expecting him to lose not even by decision.

Gary Russell was a beast!

Russell looked sharp I agree. Shobox had a good showcase this evening IMO.

Damn that booty on your sig is just asking for my hand print. YOUCH!!

I'm not descriminatory, but I still can't believe Cruz is gay and he fights like that. That KO was great!!!!!!!!!!

Great win for Cruz.

LOL

Seriously, if you want some proof just search it, you can go to Notifight (most famous boxing spanish site) and just read it. There's a loooooot of puertoricans there that knows that and don't make a big deal about it.
Anyway, i would never made up something like that, trust me, i'm not that kind of person, like i said you can go to Notifight (is in spanish) if you don't believe me.

Keep it Boxing!

Regardless of who Cruz sleeps with he showed he has some skill, buts needs to stay busy as he has good hand speed and is very technical similar to his Olympic teamate Calderon. Russell Jr will be a force once he gets that jab pumping and learns to keep the opposite hand up when he throws those hooks. Excellent hooks from both sides is very rare find and he keeps them tight. More impressive was breaking a man's jaw a very hard thing to do on anybody of any skill level.Good Power. The Casal-Quintero fight was entertaining, Casal should evaluate his love for the sport he has so much potential ,but he throws his power hand as if he pitching which takes the steam off the shot and he is very squared he landed clean shots ,but were ineffective because of his balance issues. Quintero showed fire typical of a Mexican fighter staying busy with quality competition and a development of sound defense he could be a top 10 fighter in the future.

damn good **** cruz.

Gary Russell looked sharp, he literally broke that guys jaw. props to Reyes for actually fighting and not just being an opponent. being from MD myself, i hope Gary Russell has some success in the game.

If its true that Cruz is gay, thats a little embarrassing but whats worse is how that Mexican feels after he got knocked out ugly with a record of 30-0 28 knockouts...lol
