No announcement yet.
Has anyone seen the Box Azteca broadcast of Cotto-Margarito II?

Heres the thing , Mexican view Pr's as runners with all flash and no heart or balls to fight. As a Mexican , i disagree. Chavez quit against Oscar , morales quit against Manny Pac stuff happens . I prefer a boxer that moves in and out and stands his ground when needed, no sense in getting hit over and over again to prove a point.
Chavez was a favorite of mine a long time ago but he is a bitter man and never gives credit to those who beat him. EXample -Randall won and Chavez wanted to sue Richard Steele for the defeat m which is odd cause it was Steele who saved him from defeat against Taylor and blamed his corner for stopping fight with Oscar when it was obvious that Chavez made the decision to quit.

I remember JCC getting stopped by Wily (sp?) and then having his son JCC, Jr. get revenge for him. I'm like, dude...c'mon. That wasn't necessary. We all knew you were past your prime by then, we forgive you. Even when you fought Oscar, we forgive you.
It's kind of like now with the JCC,Jr./De la Hoya rumors. I'm like, "Really, Julio, Sr? You want to get derive satisfaction for Oscar beating you past your prime by having your SON call out a fighter who was stopped in the last fight of his career and has been retired for THREE YEARS? Really...?"
C'mon, man...let it go.

Also, a commentator, even when he leans for a fighter, should stick to be a commentator and not a cheerleader.
As for Junior... he's just preaching to the choir. Wonder why he won't tell the same fluff to American press?
He was a hell of a fighter, no doubt. But he should tone it down when downplaying Puerto Rico.
I'd pay to hear someone like Tito and Chávez commentating a PR/Mexican fight side-by-side.
