Least deserved hype wagon - Leo Santa Cruz

[Raonic]

He did fight Mares, although that was after when Mares got exposed. But yea, he's fought garbage competition as a 3 division champ. And everyone has caught on.

not sure what you mean by hype but hes no different then any other fighter right now they are all fighting one sided fights. hes obviously going to fight framptron and gary russel. frampton already said he would fight him and gary.

the guy might be a 3 division champ but hes still just coming into his own as a pro. hes no different then a lot of other guys he just gets more crap cause hes with haymon. its obvious haymon is going to make gary russel vs leo and also leo vs frampton

He has only one good win and has been matched carefully. Most fighters are coming up in weight to fight him

And he should get criticized more for it. As a Haymon fighter, he has a lot more options compared to non-Haymon fighters. Someone from Japan or UK or Mexico doesn't have the same opportunities as someone firmly in Haymon's stable .

LSC would maul Frampton and Quigg easly but he would get outboxed by Rigo.

Santa Cruz is no joke the jokes are guys like Frampton and quigg who will never sign to fight lsc or any significant fighter outside of europe.

The guy is undefeated. He's already a three division world champion. None of his championships were IBO/WBO/Regular WBA/etc. Won the IBF @ 118, made three defenses, then the WBC @ 122, made four defenses, then the WBA @ 126 and has made one defense.

How many guys this decade have a similar resume? Not many. If it was easy to pick up major titles in three weight classes and make eight defenses without picking up a loss, everybody would do it.

^^^^ this right here. He is a 3 division champion while not fighting the actual champions at each weight. He beats up on old faded smaller ex champs who are desperate for a paycheck and his title defenses were against his former sparring partners come on man please don't take his 3 division champion seriously haha. Also he hasn't fought a slick fighter and just fights guys that are tailor made for him. His dad is a joke thinks his son is some all time Mexican great.

122- ducked Rigo
126- ducking Gary Russell

Now he's calling out Frampton to move up to from 122 to 126. What a Mexican warrior

The Haymon welfarenm plan.

It keeps fighters well fed, but they never become anything in this sport.

Cruz could of been the Morales of our time. Instead he's just another fighter.

Morales? Cruz? Come on man lol Its 2 different league of fighters. Maybe u meant something else but I dont know what u mean by that??? Morales was just on another level than this guy

Loma or Rigo light him up.

That doesn't make Leo crap if that happens, though. Loma and Rigo both look like special fighters.

Santa Cruz is even money at least against anyone besides those two.
