    Santos is damn terrible.

    Cintron would knock him out. This guy was hurt multiple times by Yuri.

        Where is Chicano 79Us with his Santos outweighed Margarito by ten pounds on fight night talk? Sounds like a weak excuse now.

          He showed up old.

          It happens. It's not really indicative of how good he is.

          That said, Yuri Foreman is good. Even if in the opening two rounds he had that same nervous, worried look about him, I've come to terms with it - that's just what he looks like.

          I can't take my eyes of feet when I watch him, he makes me tired. It just seems like most of his movement is somehow extra. But it works for him, he bounces up and down, up and down, and slides from side to side as if a hanger on a clothes rail. His knees must take a hammering.

            Santos fought the wrong fight, he thought he could just time Foreman and knock him out, had he started from round 1 to win rounds he would have probably won.

              Santos was awful last night. He looked like he had no respect for Foreman and thought he'd get an easy payday. Foreman kicked his ass and as much as I dislike Foreman's style of fighting I was happy it happened.

              I'd still take Santos over Cintron, granted he shows up in decent shape. His straight left (left hand in general) would be all kinds of trouble for Kermit. He hurt Margarito with it, he destroyed Alcine with it, he couldn't miss Jose Antonio Rivera with it.

                Santos looked like an old man. I was expecting a much better performance from him.

                  Santos is done. He should retire... the sad thing is that he is very ****ing talented, what a waste. Lazy mother****er that never did anything when he could and now that he is "old" he wants to make up for the lost time well... ITS LATE *****...

                    Don't even know how you'd time him.

                    The guy doesn't stop moving even for a split second. He's kind of boring but interesting too. He is a bit of a puzzle.

                    Everytime Santos went to throw, Foreman would have made about 16 different movements of his own. Forward, back, forward, back, up, down, up,down, up, down, knees bent, stepped to the side, flick a jab out. Rinse and repeat.

                    Santos was shot imo, but it still showed why Formeman is a handful.
