yordan vs caballero discussion thread

[Escobar Int.]

anyone else think they are going overboard with the cruel and unusual beating BS?

Probably, he is somewhat feather-fisted, so the damage might be less than people imagine. But Yordan is going to be sore for a few days.

Interesting that the public is taunting Caballero by crying out "Juanma". However, Caballero and Lopez have a long way to go before meeting. The winner of this fight gets Gamboa, the winner of Gamboa-Caballero will eventually have to also fight the winner of Solis-Santiago. On the other hand, Lopez needs to win his mandatory. If both win all of their bouts, this might be an interesting fight with all of the badblood between them.

They weren't taunting him... Caballero has been calling out Juanma...but the rest is a very good point though.

Why would you listen to those morons? Especially Merchant...

The corner should have stopped it. The commission or ref cannot step in and stop a fight like that though. These are high level guys with serious careers on the line. The guy's corner was clueless and irresponsible, but to blame the commission or say this fight was way to brutal just shows that they just aren't boxing fans. It is a very brutal sport.

It's like if I go to a dog fight... I will be yelling "STOP THE FIGHT!" before the combatants even engage. I like dogs.

The card is in Florida, with a Puerto Rican fighting for a world title in the main event. A good 80%+ of that crowd is Puerto Rican, they were most likely taunting him.

Try sore for a minimum of a week and when your getting pummelled like that to the head although most were to the body your brain takes more damage than one would think. Just because your not showing signs of being hurt doesn't mean the long term damage isn't being done. The fight would've been better off getting fight because he had no chance of winning and he's a young fighter who you don't want to take that many punches.
