I agree with you...the cherry picking to build resumes nowadays it's alredy annoying...

When are you going to get mad at Rigondeaux for his cherry picking resume?

Will Tim Bradley rematch Abregu? Or will he prefer to sit at home like he's been doing?

Bradley smacked that guy around already. In a rematch, he'd probably make Abregu quit

So much for boricua's hope in Dulorme. . .

Lol, damn, that's two boricua prospects down within a month on HBO BAD!

Yeah so what. One loss does not mean a career is done. In fact, I'd rather have a quality loss to a quality opponent such as the two loss two in vic and carlos as opposed to 40 or so odd pro fights against powder puffs and lightweights.hollow victories and shuti. each will come back stronger and if they done ficuk it, its not like we don't have a storied history to rely on going forward....

Props to Abregu. He game planned to drop his right hammer over Dulorme's jab and when Dulorme went south paw it took him less than 2 rounds to adjust and drop the hook on him. I came away VERY impressed with Abregu and his corner. I'd love to see him get a crack at the big dogs in the division. Great run for Argentinian boxing.

he could work on getting a better chin. it can get stronger. will see if it works with Khan after he uses Virgil's machine.lol. the kid just didn't think in that ring and that is the major flaw I saw last night.The kid is book smart but not really a fighter at his core. Abregu was a good fight for him that he should have been able to beat but didn't. All the complaints that he was thrown to the wolves etc. is nonsense. no disrepect to those who think that but in reality it was a good test to check his realness and he failed big time....

Chins don't get better man, they just don't. I know some trainers believe that strengthening the neck muscles will help but in the end, you can either take a punch or you can't.

What I was shocked to see was the way Delorme was getting touched and then his eyes would roll in the back of his head. Some guys are prone to getting knocked out and he seems one of them.

Shame because his speed is excellent, and his jab is ridiculous.

I missed the fight, but Abregu is a damn puncher str8 up. People that just have power. Did anybody notice they were using Winning gloves too? IMO if they were using Everlasts or Reyes the fight might have ended sooner.

Abregu was using Winning, Delorme was using Everlast I believe. It wasn't just when he was hitting Delorme with hard shots, even normal shots were turning his eyes back and/or he would all of a sudden look off into the crowd. It was weird man, like I said Kellerman was even pointing it out.

Something is wrong with this kids chin, like he blacks out for a split second when touched.

crazy. Just like punchers, a good chin is a god given gift.

You're correct. It was totally a spoof and clowing aimed at Khan and that ridicolousness. the thing with the eyes was weird to see. he may ultimately not have the power to withstand shots to the dome like that. But I've said it over and over again, in-game adjustments are key, and for some reason, he just didn't commit fully. He made the right switch to southpaw but then failed to stay right and that is a real problem. This fact is of more concerns to me than his abilities to take a punch.

Yep he is speedy and has a nice stiff jab but his inside work is brutal. perhaps he is closing his eyes or something cuz he had open shots but just couldn't let it go... should be interesting to see what comes of him in the future...
