    Clearly a hometown robbery...

    I scored it 8-4 John easy. Juarez came back in the last couple rounds, but not enough to win or even draw

      Atleast everyone got to see that John is the real deal, I hope more of you pay attention to him in future.

      Were you impressed by John or somewhat disappointed? What do you think?
      I was not impressed with John, I mean he fought Rocky everyone knows that Rocky has no skill he was tailor made for John and John could not finish him off. Yes, I do agree that he was robbed, but with a more polished fighter he definitely would have lost.

        John could not finish him off? John has never been a huge hitter and Juarez has a good beard. Marquez and Barrera couldn't take him out and Barrera had much more trouble with Juarez the first time round.

          John- Luevano would be a sweet fight.

          John beat rocky.
          John beat JMM.

          He deserves the best fights out there.

          (Just not in the hometown of the other guy)

                  I thought he won the fight too mate, I had it 117-111 however I gave him the benefit of the doubt in one or two of the rounds (they were close sometimes) so I thought 116-112 or 115-113 was about fair... but I can't see how they had Rocky winning 6 of those rounds, it was 5 at MAXIMUM.

                  It wasn't a huge robbery, like the biggest robbery in history of robberies or anything but it was still a robbery... John clearly won that fight and it was de****able that it was called a draw!

                    It was a hard fight for Marquez before the KO mate, good call on your prediction cause it could of seriously gone that way... at one point I was thinking "****, I am gonna lose my bets!"... better look next time mate!

                      I was worried myself, because John is very rarely been hit clean. Even against Marquez he wasn't hi as much as he was last night so I didn't know how good his chin really was, he answered my question last night though.
