Fights like this are the reason why I'm a boxing fan. I just rewatched this fight and I'm humbled by these two warriors...
Linares looked very sharp early on in the fight and was really putting on a boxing clinic as he landed some pretty sweet combinations and quick counter punches . But credit to Demarco for hanging in there with him and not getting discouraged. He picked his shots and started timing Linares very well and fought at a real measured pace. Demarco didn't waste a lot of punches but when he did punch he made it count and he turned it on when it counted....
