Comments Thread For: Juanma-Salido Likely Heading To 2012, Tuneup Likely

Salido is acting like a punk but did Juan Ma give that Matagwa guy the rematch after he clearly beat Lopez no he didn't so karma is what it is anyways Salido whips Lopez in his casa again same fight same out come.

Why would he give Mtagwa a rematch?
Lopez was the champ and Juanma beat him.

Wrong...Just because JUANMA gassed out late doesnt mean MTGAWA won the fight. JUANMA won decisively...the fact that he was hurt and came close to getting KO'd in the late rounds idosnt mean MTAGWA won the fight. You are the first I hear that actually thought Mtgawa won that fight.

Nope that other guy Eaner on here who also broadcasts weekly on the lab radio said the same thing abt juanma/matgwa lmao

JuanMa is an exciting fighter and just needs to focus on defense when he is wingin those shots and going for the kill. He does have a tendency to focus so much on his offense that he leaves himself open to unnecessary shots.

Here's what I don't understand from people calling Salido a b*tch. The fight was not even close in Juanmas favor in any round. The rematch is considered because of Juanma's stature as an opponent and because Salido will gain good money fighting him again.

If it would have happened the other way around and Salido asked for a rematch, Lopez would have said he didn't care for a rematch and it would have been ok because he did beat him up.

Salido has the right to make his money, he's the champion and won it fair and square. It's not like his not going to fight him again, he was open for a rematch even after the 8th round of the first fight.

So the same could be said about Salido right? Unless you want to admit you're using double standards.

Salido is just delying the inevitable!!!!

Juanma, should take a tune to start fixing his defese or lack of problem, then fight Gonzalez and move up, or simple move up already, dude is walking at around 145 pounds, he should be fighting at 130 already

you should be the last person to talk, salido personally anally owned your azz right in front of you...

This is a rematch that I could give two ****s about. Juanma had a few fights leading up to the Salido fight where he had many questions and then the Salido fight completely exploited him. Juanma clearly isn't as good. As for Salido, what can be said about a guy with 15 losses or whatever he has. Salido is a journeyman that doesn't bring anything exciting to the ring. Top Rank really ****ed up with not getting Juanma in one of the big fights. His stock has dropped drastically.

Juanma's tuneup then Salido wants one and you're looking @ May, maybe unless someone else jumps in...is Rivera paying the $$'s for Salido to go to PR???

Orlando has eleven losses. He started his pro career at age 15. From what I understand, he didn't have an amateur career. Almost all of Salido's loses came early in his professional life. You might say it was "on-the-job training." Eight years after he turned pro, Orlando lost a UD to Juan Manuel Marquez. Between that and the loss to Gamboa, "Siri" lost a split decision to Cristobal Cruz -- all world title fights.

Salido is more than a journeyman. He's a blue-collar fighter that came up the hard way. If you don't think he brings anything exciting to the ring, then it's safe to say that you don't like the Mexican style of boxing. "Siri" embodies that style.
