Why did Juan Urango fall out of the top 5?

[$Bullsfam$]

This is ridiculous. I don't think you can have Amir Khan in the top 5 or Marcos Maidana if your don't have Urango. So were going to totally forget about him because he lost to a talented younger welterweight in Berto, lost to Hatton in his prime, and just lost to Alexanders who's legit and the hottest thing at 140 right now?

I know he's not the most talented as far as pretty skills go, but their is a tough motha****er with huge power. Amir Khan would die in the ring against him. He'd would probably out bully Maidana even though that'd be an awesome freakin war. I hope they fight next. or he should fight Ortiz next. I don't think he can take Alexander or Bradley or anybody else with great boxing skills that can take a punch, but has still achieved a lot and has only lost to legit guys in his weight class, and a legit fighter above so I don't think he should drop out of the top 5 just because Khan won't fight the best at 140 and take a lost like a real man by fighting lightweights.

What are your guys thoughts on Urango?

He's in my top 5 ranking-wise, but not one of the 5 best fighters in the division.

Urango is ****, lets be fair

The best fighter Urango has beaten is Ben Rabah and he really lost that fight. He's a natural right hander who should have stuck with fighting right handed, his footwork isnt the best, he has a weird mentality for his style. He comes forward but often times is looking to counter punch, which for him is counter productive, also as shown against Berto, against someone who is well conditioned and can move he will probably lose, he doesnt apply enough pressure fast enough for someone moves nimbly which I chalk up alot to the fact that he's not a natural southpaw and cant move as naturally that way.

Khan wouldn't have a fun night with him, I know that much.

It's not that he lost to Alexander is the way he lost to Alexander

Id imagine it'd get boring repeatedly pounding someone in the face for 12 rounds....sure.

urango is a ****ing robot..he aint ****.. he's got power, thats it....the boy is so predictable like a ***ing zombie....even juan diaz beats him at 140

That's not what I meant and that's not all that would happen IMO (although it might be the pattern for a while)...but, if that's what you think.



Maybe Khan should start stepping up, then...if he's so infallible.

[MACAQUEINBLACK]

At least a vilified Mayweather Jr. has actual accomplishments and proven ring-excellence to semi-justify the 'he'd beat X fighter easily' type commentary.





Khan's got next to nothing to justify it.


Urango makes for an uneasy night for Khan.
