    wait, wait. he gave zab judah a hell of a fight?

    and that was in no way the same cosme rivera that fought berto. rivera actually had time to prepare for that fight, not just 4 damn days. also, he fought berto at his natural weight of 147, of course he'd get steamrolled by a big 154lber like that.

    i'm not saying that rivera would've beat angulo by any means, but this whole "this is the same rivera that did this or that to that guy" is bull.

      I agree wit you bruh..

      Angulo is a solid dude..wit more control wit his punches..(not wild and bunched like Margarito)..he holds a solid chin and he's got POP in his punches..the quality of opposition is steady improving..soon he'll be in there wit the top 154lb guys..

      Can't wait to see him get in there wit either Vanes or Kirkland..

        You must didnt see his fight with Zab, that was the most one-sided beatdown Ive ever seen.

            You obviously didnt whatch Zab Judah fight cuz Rivera didnt do ****.
            He got dropped by first punch and clearly dominate by sissy.

                I completely disagree about giving Zab Judah "a hell of a fight", that was a pretty bad blowout. Rivera was down twice in the first round on some pretty vicious left crosses. I remember Lampley saying "That was probably the best left cross Cosme Rivera had ever been hit with." The left uppercut that hurt Rivera in the third and ultimately led to the end was about as crisp and flush as any punch I'd ever seen.

                I was there last night for the Angulo fight, I was surprised how bad that cut was. He must have been cut in training and the punch that hit him reinjured the same spot. Angulo is very strong and hits pretty solidly but he needs to move his head out of the way of punches better. It seemed every time Rivera threw a right hand it was right on target.

                    of course he didn't see it. he looked it up on boxrec, but he misread the line that said cosme rivera, and accidentally looked at the above row which was the carlos baldomir fight.
