Comments Thread For: Farenas Now Looms For Barthelemy IBF Title Clash

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

Mendez didn't allow Barthelemy show much, and I haven't seen Barthelemy in a tough fight.

From what I've seen from recent nights I think Farenas would give him a grueling fight and definitely chin check him.

So you didnt see the Usmanee fight? Cause that was a tough fight and he showed some heart in it.

I like Farenas by KO! Just watch again how Usmanee beat the hell out of Rances then got robbed! Usmanee's feather fisted! Farenas got a rock fist! Rances is not undefeated!

Back again Oracle? You disappeared for a while after Rigo schooled Nonito. lol

Barthelemy beat Usmanee. I watched that fight again and scored it. Rances won by one point, in my opinion. (An opinion I'm far from alone in, by the way.) Very close fight where both men showed a lot of heart.

Farenas looked good in beating Davis last week. Michael does punch hard. I hope he and Rances fight. It would be a good match-up. I think Barthelemy is too skilled and too rangy for Farenas. I'd like to see if I'm right.

I think RB will check that chin too, farenas has going down before while Barthelemy has never tested the canvas, intriguing match nonetheless...

this will be a nice fight. farenas seems like the more experienced and battle tested fighter though.

but i think barthelemy wins it.

The fight will not happen, Rances people already said Farenas need to fight 2 or 3 more guys to prove himself worthy of the IBF title shot.

They said his name is not big and they only want big name opponents for Rances right now.

Farenas is a scrub though, all he is is a throwback come forward brawler with power and grit, Rances will counter him at will, remember the Japanese champion TKO Farenas before.

He did? Which Japanese fighter TKO'd him? Farenas has been dropped but has yet to be KO'd bro.. I want to see that fight though. I never knew he had been TKO'd by some Japanese champ***8230;

Prove himself? He fought Gamboa and Uchiyama back to back, giving a good account of himself on both(for the 2 1/2 rounds with Uchi)***8230; do you know what those names mean? Yet he must prove himself before fighting Rances for his belt***8230; smh. If Farenas can land his left he will chin check Rances but that's a big IF. Counters all night won't hinder Farenas attack but it will accumulate damage and lead to a UD loss or possible stoppage. I'm a Farenas fan and I know this will be a difficult fight but I'm on the pinoys corner.

When and where did Rances' people say this? I have reason to believe you're bsing. Why? Cause you're claiming Farenas was TKO'ed and thats completely false. Get your facts right next time.

great fight, farenas has name and will be a good win for RB (if he wins of course) then bring ushe and do it again...

Farenas will be punching up... way up... Not sure how much his power will faze Barthelemy.
