Rosas is no match for Mijares. Come on now. Did you see the first fight?

If this fight happens Mijares is going to outbox Martinez, Gatito Guerrero beat this guy and Martinez was given a gift. We'll see Mijares climb back to be the best super flyweight of the world.

Martinez' win over Gatito Guerrero was hardly "a gift", though I'll grant you it was close. Guerrero seemed more active for much of the early rounds of the fight, but I thought Martinez was making him miss most of the night-- not very effective IMO. And then Martinez had that huge round late after rocking Guerrero badly and was the aggressor thereafter which I thought allowed him to take the decision.

To me a "gift" is the draw Lara was given against Molina last Friday night.

I hope Crisitan don't loose the floor again
