      He wasn't even hurt. The kd was partly a punch and partly him being off balance because the other guy was smothering him.

      The stoppage was bunk. Typical hometown stoppage. Linares is only 26, he'll be fine. I think he destroys this guy in a rematch with ease.

        Lol at Pac-Floyd having anything to do with GBP being an incompetent promotional company.

        Telling their fighter that he will fight in his hometown of Venezuela and then a month before the fight changing the venue. But, did they change it to Cali where their fighter trains at? No. I mean Cali would make sense right since that's not only where he trains but that is also where the rematch with Demarco would take place at. I mean it makes sense. But, what do they do? Match him against a no name Mexican where? In Mexico. Why? What was the purpose of this?

        How long after Linares suffered a cut against Pac in sparring was he in the ring with Demarco? Has this man being able to heel his cuts properly before going in the fight?

          at his weight that's unpossible. I'll have to check out this fight. i had high hopes for him.

            i don't think people should give up on him so easily. i would agree if the fight was a lot longer and he was still getting tagged but it was only 2 rounds. i think if the crooked doctor didn't stop the fight, linares would probably have adjusted and outclassed that guy.

                That would actually be correct if he was undefeated when he actually started working with freddie. He had already been knocked out prior to joining Roach.

                So you didn't actually fix anything. You actually failed. But, you always fail when you try to talk boxing. Oh Flicker when will you learn?

                      I never thought highly of Linares, actually the only times I get to see him, he always loses. I think I saw one fight where he won actually which was Juarez. But to be fair to him, his losses came against 2 big punchers in Salgado and Thompson, and one good boxer DeMarco. And Salgado has been pretty good outside of his loss to Uchiyama, he even has two wins over Jrosales's brother, Guadalupe Rosales.


                      But anyways, I don't see Linares being anything great, but who knows. With good matchmaking he can become "great". Hence the two videos of Pacquiao that I posted of him being TKO'ed brutally before he became what he is today. You can come back from brutal KO's but you need a very good team around you.
