Official: PBC on ESPN Santa Cruz vs Mares Pre/Post fight thread

[John Barron]

didn't care for this fight, mainly because i hate watching mares foul and windmill his way into every opponent like a ******, but i read some people saying FOTY so i caught the replay. it was good but not great, had LSC winning it.

Dudes like you are a bunch of lames. This was a great action fight, the type of fight that has people coming back for more. You didn't like it for personal reason. This fight was legit, action packed and worthy for consideration of foty. FOH with your elitist attitudes. Last night, is exactly what boxing is about. No fluff, no posturing, just all out fighting. One guy had to withstand a relentless onslaught and used his skill and talent to overcome. What more do you weenies want?

i said it was good so calm down. i don't get overexcited over sloppy pillow punching.

I agree it wasn't really a skillful back and forth masterpiece like the Morales/Barrera fights but it's ridiculous to question their hearts. Mares gave it his all but just lacked the skill to be effective.

you right. I was just talking ****.

I guess people really didn't like or didn't pay attention to Santa Cruz before. I've been seeing all day how people are shocked at how he fought. No question it's impressive to use his skills against his best opponent to date, but he didn't use any skills last night that he hasn't used before. People seem to think he showed new wrinkles and he really didn't.

[BOXEO _]

Mares took a beating. He was holding on for dear life.

No point in a rematch. I'd like to see Santa Cruz fight Frampton, Cuellar, or Lomachenko next.

Mares should drop down in weight.

Great fight between to 2 good fighters.

LSC impressed me i must say.

LSC impressed me i must say.

I thought he was going to impress.

I thought he was going to impress.

Mares said they tied his shoes wrong so this one doesnt count

Matthysse-Provodnikov was better. It was still a pretty good fight though

LOL hell no. Matthysse pretty much won every round easily. WTF did you watch?
