    Juanma really isn't that good

    I think Juanma is a decent fighter and top contender but in no way is he the elite fighter he has been made out to be. He has power and that is about it. His chin isn't good, he's slow, and he doesn't even have the best technique. Gamboa would blow him out in under 5 rounds, Mikey Garcia would take him out in the late rounds if not sooner, Gary Russell would make him look ******, Chris John would out box him, and Salido will defeat him again. Maybe he would be a good showcase for Donaire moving up to featherweight, lol. Nuff said.

    He hasn't looked very good since moving up to 126, IMO.

    His technique has regressed and he's looked awful clumsy and plodding at times.

      hes a 27 year old FW ( who is going to have serious trouble making 26 in the near future) who has made a career of taking punches in the face


      he's all done in my eyes. no way his style will be successful at LW, and at 130 there are almost no fights for juanma type money (and broner would probably lull him to sleep before knocking him out)

      the ring jumped the gun ranking him lb 4 lb

      i thought that was a joke when i saw it

      and wooo was i right haha!


      dude went LIFE AND DEATH with frigid mtagwa haha!

          I'm afraid I'd have to agree.

            Exactly! Mtagwa was nothing lol. Juanma is so overrated its not even funny. To think that he was ever a pound for pound ranked fighter is silly

              He's a pretty good fighter actually. I disagree about Gamboa beating him, imo Lopez would ice Gamboa pretty easily.

              Losing to Salido is nothing to be ashamed of anyway, those in the know knew Salido was a tough opponent. He's always been overlooked and underrated.

                  He is PRETTY good, and that's about it.
