Comments Thread For: Jose Valenzuela upsets Isaac Cruz by split decision to win 140-pound title

Cruz is too small for 140, at least he got the ultimate gift fight for a belt in the Rolly fight

Oh well back to chasing Tank

That payday is now gone.

Cruz is fun to watch, but I always said he is vulnerable tall rangy fighters who can box. He's just too short and doesn't really have that lighting one punch KO punch like Tank.

Wow ! What a performance by el Rayo, well deserved victory. He made pitbull look very silly.

140 @ this point is straight musical chairs with the titles.

It is an entertaining, packed division. The top like 6 fighters all have strengths that on any given night makes them able to beat anybody, but all 6 also have exploitable weaknesses. This division is much watch.

Called this fight. Glad we don’t have to hear chiwawa Cruz begging for a tank rematch anymore

Too many fans got carried away after that fight with G. Davis giving Cruz way too much credit! Yes, he put pressure on Davis and manage not to get KOd, but I knew the wheels would soon come off the Cruz band wagon!

So much talk about Cruz, an aggressive come forward fighter (neanderthal), who's wide arching punches will always get beaten to the linear punching boxers.
I don't believe that Valenzuela will be holding onto the title much longer than Cruz did, due to his questionable chin.
There are quite a few fighters who will beat Cruz, because of his lack of height, reach, and wide punching style.

So “Mexican style” lost?

I don't think that'll stop Team Cruz from name-dropping Davis. Cruz's entire hype-train exists because of Davis.
