Comments Thread For: Mike Jones-Sebastian Lujan Set as an IBF Eliminator

[giacomino]

Lujan is a beast who will throw a million punches. Jones will earn his title fight if he gets by Lujan

if jones wins, berto cant duck him anymore

Lujan is a live underdog.

Soto Karass exposed Jones' lack of in-fighting. Despite Jones' constant lateral movement, jab, combinations, and even having a messy cut (in the rematch), Karass was able to get there often, too often.

Soto Karass lost to Alfonso Gomez, so lets not act as if Jones has proven he's on another level. Lujan is faster than Karass and can get his punch count up there at a similar or even better rate. If he can take Jones' power and make his way to the inside consistently, he's going to put MJ in some dark places.

mike jones just gassed himself out when he had karass against the ropes and threw like a **** load of punches most of which didn't land cleanly (forgot which round that happened). in the rematch he fought smart and won more convincingly.

He had a problem on his hands in the rematch too.

He won more convincingly in the rematch, but you can't take into account Jones gassing himself out in the 2nd round of the first fight and disregard Karass' cuts in the second fight.

Jones had too many problems against a slow, plodding pressure fighter, who had 2 gashes for most of the fight.

I believe Jones will win, but Lujan is a live underdog here.

Should be a good fight. Both these guys are ok with mixing it up.
