    I agree with the general sentiment in here that I wish the ref let it go longer but I don't consider it that bad of a stoppage.

    Linares's face was cut to shreds and he had a cut previously from sparring that opened up. As far as I'm concerned this loss should not set him back any. I want to seeh im back in a big fight immediately, preferably a rematch. That's a great BAD.

        Good stoppage. Linares couldn't see **** anymore and so he couldn't defend himself. He was hurt and barely could stand up. As soon as the ref stopped it you see Linares falling over.

          I was never sold on Linares, being my countryman and all I never really cared much for him. He's got good skills but he's missing something, HBO guys were all over his jock throughout the whole fight, incredible how biased these people are.

            Not a bad stoppage, he was taking a lot of clean shots and it was getting ugly. But he was never seriously hurt and never took a knee or went down. Considering how clear it was that Linares was winning the fight i think the ref should have let it go on.

              if all you had to do was shadowbox linares would be in the top 5 p4p


              but when you add getting hit on the chin to the equation he's not even in the top 5 of his division.


              he does not take punches well

                linares isn't the smartest guy and didn't seem to be taking instruction from freddy too well.

                horrible strategy after the middle rounds of the fight.

                i give all propers to d4emarco, who is a certified badass and one of my favorite boxers now, he was always hovering around but he took so much time off after valero beat the dogcrap out of him.
