Abner Mares. You keep doubting him, but he keeps proving you wrong

I've now changed my mind about Abner Mares. I will be the first to admit, that I wasn't initially convinced that he could handle Nonito's punching power and skill for supremacy of the 122 lbs division. However, after his dismantling of Daniel Ponce Deleon; Who is a naturally larger and stronger boxer with excellent punching power. I now believe that a fight between himself and the "Filipino Flash" is a 50/50 toss up. Mares displayed exceptional boxing ability and power against one of the harder punches in the 126 lbs division. Overall, I was very impressed with his performance.Comment

Rigo is the best from 118 to 126... by far
Mares is a good fighter but no way he can defeat Rigo. By the way, Rigo already easily outboxed Mares, as you can read in Mexican press http://goo.gl/VJPdLI didn't like the stoppage so much, but I liked some of the things Mares did versus Ponce, he impressed me in some areas. I once said it would be easy work for Rigo, I don't necessarily retract it, but I give him more of chance. He's definitely proven himself as a capable fighter and it looks like he continues to improve
IMO Rigo would win by KO within in 6 roundsComment

The thing I really admire about Mares is that he doesn't define himself or give his style a label.
He drastically adjusts from fight to fight and does what it takes to win no matter what.
The difference in the way he fought Moreno and the way he fought Ponce was unbelievable.Comment
