Comments Thread For: Soro Wants To Challenge For The EBU Title Next

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Michel Soro (26-1-1, 16 KO’s) came into last Friday’s junior middleweight contest an underdog and fighting in his opponent, Glen Tapia’s backyard in Newark, New Jersey. After not throwing much in the 1st round, Soro took over and eventually knocking out his opponent in an upset victory.

For Soro the game plan was to see what Tapia had in the 1st round and then to start attacking.

“A fight lasts 10 rounds, the 1st round I knew that after it, he would get tired,” Soro told BoxingScene.com. “After the end of the 1st, he was getting into the fight and I was starting to get in the fight and then we hurt and we finished him, my killer instinct kicked in.” [Click Here To Read More]

I have to ask. Why was a French dude fighting for a USBA title? I actually remember, in the not so distant past, when winning both the NABF and USBA titles was actually a big deal.

I remember those days too. Willie Monroe earned his shot to fight GGG by winning the USBA and NABF.

Dude looked good beating up Tapia. Good win on tv. Good on him. Let's see if he can run it up.

War Soro!

I like what I see with Soro....sometimes he stands straight up but outside of that, he does a lot of things well. Hope he gets the shot, he left his country to come here and make it.
