Cuauhtemoc1520's take on this weekend 7/26/2014

[Russian Crushin]

Perez looked badly out of shape to be honest. His corner was asking him to do all kinds of stuff and he didn't change anything. He's just fat and out of shape to be honest.

GGG is the scariest man in boxing. 3 rounds was a shocker, and I never call any boxer a quitter but I think Geale didn't want to continue. He felt those shots and just decided that's not what he wanted in his life.

Geale was out from that shot. He said that he shook his head because he had no clue where he was and who the ref was talking to him.

[Ray Corso]

Geale didn't quit! Watch him leave the ring then walk the isle and watch his legs and his overall movement. He got rocked and remained dazed from stating "no more" until......................I don't know but he was not in control of himself and did the right thing for himself & family and basically "retired"!
His eyes were glazed over and kept looking downward! When a fighter can't maintain a straight ahead focused look their rocked.
Great ref ( Mikie Ortega) yeah yeah.....................my friends son, knew him when he was a little boy did a great job. He kept an eye right on Geale's face and read his expressions properly. The eyes tell you everything in boxing.

Well like I said, I don't like to call any boxer a quitter so I was hesitant to say that word. I will say he got up really fast, and usually when a guy is that hurt, they don't get up that easy.

Either way, I can't fault him and when you look at the fight he didn't take that much damage really. It was just a few huge shots that ended his night.

[-MAKAVELLI-]

Not that I disagree with anything, but the bolded part is so true.

He's one of the best, if not the best, fighter around today at cutting off the ring. It's almost scary how much confidence he has in his ability. Have you even seen someone take a flush (and a solid) right hand to the jaw and in the same motion knock the other guy out? It is really incredible. We are watching something special with him. But I feel he should stay at MW.

yup...so much of that 'snap' gets taken out by being hit midpunch that GGG dropping Geale made it that much more impressive

[paulf]

The scary thing was that Geale was so damn confident coming into the ring and in the first round; it wasn't false bravado, he knew he had to skills to hang with world class fighters. By the third Geale had that "I don't believe this" look on his face. Making a world-class operator like Geale come out and go for absolute broke after two rounds... man.

GGG is going to be the most avoided guy in boxing after this.

[RINGG]

Perez is a major disappointment! Maybe not on the same level as Solis was, but there is still time.


GGG was impressive! Sure Geale was perfect for him but GGG did what he was supposed to do and did it impressively.

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

GGG has so much experience, that I think he's ready for the elite in that division. Unfortunately for Cotto, he owns one of the belts at 160, so a match up with GGG might be inevitable unless he moves back down to face Canelo which is what I think he should do.


Ward vs GGG is THE fight to make.
