Comments Thread For: Early HBO Latino Results From Tropicana, Las Vegas

It's so funny how everybody is taking about a washed up Mora and a reckless Fortuna.. The real main event was the Luis DeValle Vs. Luis Rosa fight..Two young up and coming Puerto Ricans who can **** it out with the best of them at 130 lbs in world put on a show..IMO it was the fight of the night and Luis DeValle got robbed. You gotta really love the way HBO cut the program and didn't even offer an explanation to that decision..

That was some questionable scoring in that fight. both kept trading shots back and forth in every round. How Rosa got every round is truly something to question. Two judges gave Round 5 10-9 to del Valle (which turns out to be the only round they had him winning). Thats the round Rosa was put on the floor. I thought it was a close fight but leaning more towards Del Valle because of the knockdown and the point taken away from Rosa for that cheap shot. Good fight though.

Exactly. I know Devalle needed this win and I hope DiBella still promotes him because he's a crowd pleaser and given the right shot he can become world champion one day. Luis Rosa...WTF? Where did that kid come from? I see him creating lots of problems for anybody at 130-135 pounds if he keeps it up. He looks strong and he can take some shots. Hell of a fight.. I wish they'd show case more Puerto Rican boxing so the entire world can enjoy what we enjoy all the time..

That's funny. considering you don't even know what weight they fought at.

WTF 122-130 does it make difference? I saw the fights.. Did you & if you did who do you think won?

Luis Rosa reminds me of a shorter version of Angel Manfredy.

They were in Las.Vegas! Can't get a lot of exposure sparring with nobodies at home. Ireland, Scotland, PR, Mexico, they have to leave home, cut the apron strings.
