Comments Thread For: Santa Cruz Hopes Mares Overcomes Eye Issue; Wants Rematch

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Leo Santa Cruz hopes Abner Mares overcomes his eye issue and returns to the ring soon. If, as expected, the 30-year-old Mares can come back from the reported concerns regarding his vision that forced the New York State Athletic Commission to postpone his June 25 fight against WBA featherweight title-holder Jesus Cuellar, Santa Cruz is open to a rematch against the former three-division champion. Santa Cruz (32-0-1, 18 KOs), who'll encounter Northern Ireland's Carl Frampton (22-0, 14 KOs) on Saturday night in Brooklyn, defeated Mares by majority decision in a 12-rounder nearly 11 months ago at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Mares is not no cherry pick whatsoever. Former Olympian, multi champ in multiple weights. He's definitely legit.

yes he WAS all of what you said but he hasn't been the same fighter since Gonzalez ko'd him. No need for this rematch to even be considered.
