    I agree 100% with this. My thoughts exactly about him beating either Juanma or Salido.

    And for what it's worth, people keep talking about how mediocre of an opponent Concepcion is and how Mikey took his time with him, but he handled Abe much better than the man who was in the main event last night.

    Just some food for thought.

        Mikey was okay nothing special. Just another fighter too big for his weight class like Rios. If Mikey is consider as a counter puncher but I didn't see any of it last night. Just a slow with a decent power that should be fighting at 130 or 135 fighter.

            In the Azteca version of the fight, one of the commentators dissed him. He said something like "He's a good fighter but if he keeps fighting like this the only people who are gonna come see him is his mom and brother". Then he called him boring. It sounded a lot like JCC Sr, but I'm not sure.

            I mean if you're own Mexican commentators are dissing you.

                You like watching him cause his your people. He's a thinker but not no gamboa, broner level. Mikey is slow, no head movement, predictable 1-2 punch, no combinations, doesn't throw to the body, footwork is bad.

                Barbie Concepcion is journeybum who cares.

                  He showed he is a skilled and patient fighter. He needs to up his quality of opponents to see what he really is made of. I think he will be a dominant champion in the years to come.

                    I disagree with you guys. I think Mikey's a good fighter and a nice kid, but, if he fought Salido last night, he would've lost. I say "last night," because Orlando is 31, has been at it for sixteen years and fights in a very wearing style. His shelf-life is getting close to expiration, IMO. There's no telling what might happen if these two fought three or four fights from now; but if they fight each other next, I think "Siri" takes it. Should they cross paths in their next bout, I'll gladly take friendly bets from all three of you.
