Comments Thread For: Photos: Acelino Freitas, Michael Oliveira Tense Weigh-In

[any craic lad?]

5 years is way too long Oliviera will stop him

[SpeedKillz]

that would be sweet if popo can make a decent comeback. always liked him...

[millcitymauler]

Yeah he did and the late-great Diego "Chico" Corrales took his 0 in dominant fashion!!! I'd love to see Freitas pull off an upset. He was a thrill to watch in his prime, but 5 years is far too long and he doesn't look in fighting shape now. He was always good boxer but but he didn't have much heart. He quit in both of his defeats.

Don't you mean dramatic fashion? Popo was winning that fight clean through 7 or 8, until he ran out of gas and quit.

For the third time, heartless Freitas will quit on his stool.

[JmH Reborn]

So, the kid is Brazil's new boxing flavor and Popo is feeling threatened that his standing as Brazil's ATGs is being invaded by this young dude, so he's making a comeback?

I see Popo getting murdered in the ring

Although honestly, I'd be happy if he won.

[NachoMan]

Decent fighter, but a real "****ty" nickname.

[karrapato]

Freitas was not a heartless fighter back when he was being trained by Doria(Who is now training successfull MMA fighters).

He just needed some motivation to go far in his career. He was a bull but he became a ballet dancer and started to lose.

But now is over, he can bring an upset 'cause Michael Oliveira is a bum.

Yeah Ioticed that. He retired a lightweight and came back an "overweight" junior middleweight. I wonder if he'll still have his signature KO power at that weight.
