BIG FIGHT WEEK: Agbeko V Mares discussion

[Walt Liquor]

Mares is a fairly skilled grinder to me. He's strong, throws nice combos (althOugh he used to he better with um) and can overwhelm guys. He's got a ton of heart and will to win.

I dont think that's enuff to beat king kong but that sciatica and a little incojsistency from king kong make me a bit nervous..

To me, mares was able to bully vic a little (vic is a small bw) and tire perez out. Those wojt happej against an agbeko on toP of his game b/c agbeko can comtrol the pace of the fight with his ring generalship amd footwork..

You been watching Brandon Rios war calls today? or just lion v hyena videos?

WTF is the winner fighting Moreno not Nonito for bojang? I haven't heard that. I thought Nonito was specifically waiting for the winner of this tourney.

Maybe it's only if Mares wins, but I remember seeing the article on here. Too lazy to find it, but if Mares wins Moreno gets him. Moreno doesn't deserve the winner no matter who it is over Donaire.

I agree for sure after he flat out turned down the donaire fight. Chemito should get the loser or vic d.

Moreno-Mares is inevitabley going to happen.

Moreno-Mares is inevitabley going to happen.

But if Mares beats Agbeko, Donaire deserves him far before Moreno does. I know the business isn't fair, and Golden Boy and Top Rank hate each other, but until I saw that article I thought it was a given that Donaire got the bantam tourney winner. If Mares does then Donaire has to wait? For Moreno? Bullsh**.

Moreno-Mares is inevitabley going to happen.

And it should. Just after mares-donaire if mares wins.

Id love to see moreno-agbeko or moreno-vic d if mares wins....

And for the record, *** a tuneup for donaire. He's fought off a 6-8 month layoff plenty times. They can do this fight in november-dec if the winner isnt too ****** up.

I agree but I just think Goldenboy will make Moreno-Mares whether Mares wins or loses.

The best scenario would be Agbeko to win, fight Donaire.

Mares and Moreno fight, winner fights winner.

If that happens, it will be a sign that Agbeko has slipped or was just not training well enuff. I doubt it will happen, Agbeko is a beast!

War king ***n kong!

Honestly all BS aside, I think you underestimate Mares. I think he's about as a complete fighter as you will find in boxing. He can box, counter punch, brawl and pressure. He throws great combo's and is a tough kid who isn't scarred to see his own blood or let cuts bother him.

I feel if he pressures Agbeko, it will be a tougher fight for him because Agbeko is awkward and likes to pot shot from the outside when you decide to pressure. If he allows Agbeko to come to him, I think it will be an easier fight for him because he can counter very well and his combo's will come into play.
