Comments Thread For: Jorge Linares Now in Line For Two Title Opportunities

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Former champion Jorge Linares (31-2, 20KOs) has found himself in line for two possible championship opportunities. Linares last fought in October for the vacant WBC title. He was well ahead on the official cards, 98-92, 99-91 and 98-92, but his opponent Antonio DeMarco (26-2, 19KOs) rallied in the eleventh round to get a stoppage victory. In December, the WBC issues an order which allows DeMarco to make an optional defense, but then he must grant Linares a rematch.

Ohhh, the WBC said he has an optional and then has to face Linares? Ok... well that translate to you can make as many optional defenses as you like because we don't give a fuck.

I think Linares deserves another shot at Demcarco. He was outboxing him until that cut got him. Plus I think people want to see a part 2 of that war they had no? He didn't cry to the media about losing every day at least.

i mean the guy can train and train, still isnt going to change how vulnerable his face is to cuts.

and he really didnt get hit much by demarco.

Linares should get another coach.

Oh they do give a fuck when it's the big name who's the challenger.

[F l i c k e r]

Linares would beat him in a rematch.

He also needs to get far the fuck away from Roach. He hasn't done shit to help him get better.
