Comments Thread For: Jorge Linares' Latest Setback Clouds Immediate Future

[southpaw_07]

Whether you like to hear it or not, but GBP are releasing Linares, wait for the official announcement.

Linares has a horrible team behind him. Why the hell did he fight high risk low reward tough Mexican with a 90% knockout ratio, especially right after going to war with DeMarco thats not what you call a tune-up. He just threw away his chance at a title and his biggest payday

[any craic lad?]

Still shocked.Demarco will beat Thomson pretty easy.Linares can still come back but his chin is a real worry and his face cuts up pretty easy.Was Roach in the corner last night

isnt this his 2nd lost???.... jesus only in boxing can you have 2 losses and be given the boot from the sport from fans... lol some of you guys are pathetic and the sole reason why there is this mentality in boxing where a fighter with a loss is damage goods...

This is his third loss. It's not his numbers of losses everybody questions. It's his punch resistance as well as his defense.

Paper face, glass jaw, and **** defense.

Roach ain't helping him any

[F l i c k e r]

Linares needs to get the **** away from Roach.

Linares didn't start losing badly until he got Roach as a trainer.

He doesn't fight to Roach's style. Roach only coaches one style and Linares can't do it. Linares would be helluva lot better off going to the motor city and training with Emanuel Steward. Who has trained great fighters with similar body structures to Jorge Linares.

Ruining his own career by staying with Roach.

Isnt really the number of losses, its how you lose. Example Salido has 11 losses, Lopez only 2 losses. Lopez was physically, maybe emotionally damaged by those 2 losses, Salido still strong in heart & mind. Linares got hurt pretty bad in his loss against DeMarco, maybe his mentality didnt handle it too good. DeMarco lost hard to Valero but his heart is still strong and his mentality still strong, it isnt easy.

Jorge Romero

It states that Jorge Romeros opponent was debuting, he was not. His opponent had 13 wins and 1 loss. Just not shown on boxrec, but is on fightfacts. I think he takes Yeyo Thompson to school!

sickening waste of potential
