    Don't know much about the Filipino... but looks like he has a tall order.... plus is this Manny Pac Promotions first eliminator... or is Farenas part of the stable?

      McJoe got a raw deal in Thailand, but that is life on the road. He couldn't take the crowd out of the fight, and he couldn't take Rerun out. He comes out of PR with a punchers rep, so he gets short rounds, stiff mat, big ring, and he can't adapt. A lack of internationl experience, and getting the short end of the stick as the visitor takes practise to overcome. Fighting at home all the time only teaches the A side, that's not always the case when you hunt world titles.
