[El 7 Mares V.2]

whats shakin' bro??? juanma is my boy. idk who to blame though arum or him for his opponents sometimes. anyway, he needs to stop putting on so much weight in between fights. not helping him make the weight.

Aqui pai', en la lucha, you know how we do. I know, I've happened to start liking JuanMa more and more. As a matter of fact I've always secretly liked him I just didn't want to admit it but mah' dude is a ****er and yeah he's chin is shaky but he's got heart and likes to **** it out just like our boy Tito. I just wish he would just fight Gamboa or John for once and then move up in weight.

It's Arum. Definitely Arum. JuanMa has showed nothing but courage in the ring and Arum has showed himself to be nothing but bad for boxing.

making Mexicans quit on their stool,

Yep, I'm gonna have to out the Rican fighters soon because their fans won't stop this kinda talk-- but first and foremost because they/he sided with Pac on the PED issue. It's one thing to be competitive and want to beat Mexicans but it's another to side with a non-Latino. Too bad.

7 mares, I can truly say that I don't think that he ran from caballero.. Let's be real here, caba wasn't bringing shat to the table, no gate no popularity not even a good resume, then the loss to Litzau was the icing on the cake. before the nito win, Juanmas name wasn't mentioned to fight him. Now he wins and all of a sudden Juanmas name pops up. They are in different weight classes as it is so I don't understand the ducking thing. going back to caba... I see it like this: Will Pac go back to fight torrecampo? No hell no, torre doesn't bring **** other than a win that happened when pac was like 17 years old. It's all about money and caba aint bringin none

Do Juan Manuel Lopez fans realize just how ****** and deluded they come across at times? Their whole argument for Lopez blatantly ducking Caballero is that he(Caballero) wasn't a big enough name.Celestino Caballero,who held two world titles and was the most accomplished and highly rated fighter at super bantamweight division,lacked a 'name',yet two unranked,unheralded opponents - one being a complete journeyman - are deemed worthy enough opponents.



And his fans justify Lopez ducking Caballero because he just lost a fight recently.I'm curious,who is it Lopez is fighting next? Oh,that's right,he's fighting an opponent who is coming off of a defeat.




It doesn't matter what Lopez accomplishes in future,because the true fans of the sport of boxing will always remember that he was responsible for one of the most blatant duckings in recent history.There is no credible argument to use in Lopez's defense as there isn't one.He avoided him and used several lame excuses for doing so.



It's a shame in a way,because Lopez denied himself a possible win that would have meant more to his career than a much faded Rafael Marquez brought.A decisive victory over an accomplished,top p4p rated fighter at the top of his game would have brought serious credibility to Lopez's claim to being a great fighter,and it would have been an excellent win on his resume.
