Comments Thread For: Giovani Santillan Rises To The Occasion, Batters Alexis Rocha To Score 6th-Round KO

[richardt]

If an opponent ever wants to underestimate Santillan based on his KO record, they will find out the hard way, Santillan is a reminder that he hits WAY harder than his KO record shows. He was a monster in there tonight. He just stamped himself as a top contender!

Man those chopping hooks and uppercuts are Rocha up!

[slimPickings]

Good win. Always good to see the underdog win .... but please lets slow down with the "put the 147 division on notice" !! Its a good win. Nothing more. Nothing less.

That's Rocha's mandatory position with the WBO gone.. strong fighter but limited and that got shown in there

Santillan takes his place question is will the entitled guys at 147 duck him or not.

Thanks!

Rocha landed some wonderful shots to the body, but Santillan was completely nonplussed.

I really, really want to see Santillan and Boots in the ring. Santillan is a monster and a real problem for the division. Peeps keep saying Ennis needs a real test, and Santillan is it.

I watched Santillan produce one of the best short distance combination punching performance in quite some time. He looked like Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. out there without the lead right hand. At 147 it won't be easy to find willing opponent for him after this.

[Damn Wicked]

Very exciting fight though most of the rounds were in favour of Santillan. Rocha looked like he was weak in comparison. Santillan came in with a great game plan of immediately swarming and pressuring Rocha right from the start of the first round.

Taking the mural down

Lmao danm forgot about that

[Corelone]

I'm pretty sure Santillan can be boxed. Boots can waltze him, Dr Crawford dissects him. This was rockem, sockem robots.
