Comments Thread For: 'It's definitely make or break for me': Jarrett Hurd recognizes the stakes of Jeison Rosario showdown

[mjh1969]

I liked Hurd and felt his fights were unnecessary wars if he learned some defense. I hope over time that he learned to duck, hold up his hands, used a shoulder roll, tie up a fighter, etc. I do not want to see him block punches with his face anymore. That won't get him far in boxing. Beating another shopworn fighter in Rosario won't do him any good but we all have to start off somewhere. If he wins, then he will be a good gatekeeper at the middleweight division or someone will call him and give him 3 weeks notice for a title fight.

Hurd was big and strong at 154 and would have a size advantage against alot of opponents but he was always a little limited especially defensively that's why I always fought Charlo would of probably beat him handily if they was to fight a few years back but he lost to J-rock before we found out.. but if he beats Rosario and Lara beats Garcia then yeah id watch a rematch between them

I like both these guys an think its a great fight. My advice to Hurd is forget the head, go for all body shots. It's Rosario. If Hurd avoids whats coming back he'll fold him up.
