Comments Thread For: Felix Verdejo Drops, Dominates Najera For Decision Win

[richardt]

Considering Verdejo hurt his hand makes it even more impressive. Even though some people get bent out of shape when you call a fighter a future great - think about it, some of these prospects have to become greats at some point because very era has great fighters. It is the law of averages that right now there are prospects, both known and unknown who are going emerge and define the face of boxing in the next few years. I think Verdejo has that potential.

Yes, and took a beating from Mayweather, a smaller guy. If you want to compare fighters, at 21 Trinidad became world champion, KOd the champion in 2 rounds in the champion's backyard.

A beating? Now you're reaching. Mayweather outpointed/ outboxed Canelo at a catchweight of 152 , how many times was Canelo floored ? 0 How many times was Canelo hurt ? 0

Where did Trinidad come out from? When are you delusional fanatics will understand that boxing is not a team sport and enjoy it for what it is.

This was a good co feat fight on HBO, Felix didn't disappoint on his first fight on the network. TR is doing a tremendous job on making him a star in the future, credit to Narjera for sticking in there and making it a tough fight and giving it his all.

Kid needs to relax, he gets wild and misses a bunch of punches while being wide open.

I like the speed and size.

Juanma got used to that type of crap and then look what happened later in his career. Guerrero is becoming another example of that. Guerrero was a good boxer....

Everyone already jumping the gun calling him the next PR star. They need to chill. That kinda stuff could get to someone's head and make them think they're better than they actually are and therefore making them never willing to listen/learn.

Maybe Calderon was right. Maybe the other kid is better. Just doesn't have the right promotion team.

EDIT: I meant Calderon not Tito.

But Canelo controlled the fight doe with his pressure doe.

Ala Pacquiao?

The distinction being that verdejo actually stopped throwing with his hurt hand. It was patently obvious if one watched the fight.

Is only flaw in this fight is his reduced action to the body. That too was obvious. I was disappointed in that. Could it have been the najera was a hard puncher and verdejo was reluctant to go down or was it is hurt hand. either wayhe needs to go down low more. So what if you get knocked down. It pays dividends down the stretch ala Trinidad.

If you follow the thread , Canelo's opposition was directly compared to Verdejo's by one of these delusional cheerleaders.

Once I stated facts to contrast his fantasy, its not about the quality of opponents anymore......its about how he didnt win the fight and so on.
"Fans" like these lose credit with their own bias and agenda to promote their ignorance.
