The point of a fight is to prove your the winner, no point asking for a rematch he lost in his hometown. He needs to go back to the drawing board and fight Terry Flannagan before he loses again.

Crolla you don't deserve a rematch clear up Britain first

Even PEDS couldn't give him the victory! So.... And i'm talking about the best PEDS money can buy!... from the leading country in PED's technology! Why do you think Britain has so many champions? And before crying "slander", do your homework. People talk about the Russians, but let me tell you, the situation in Britain is just as bad. It's just that they're better... as not getting caught. You'll see... there will be more scandals like this one soon (http://www.theweek.co.uk/71143/drugs...d-150-athletes). Especially when they attack PED's use in football...

A rematch at this point is rather silly. Crolla lost and was in good form for the fight. Don't see anything changing over a few months. He has a couple paydays he can collect which likely go the way of the dinosaur if he loses to Linares again.

I believe you

Good for Crolla to have the fighting spirit, and overcoming some massive obstacles in his life... but he must've not thought about the fact Linares will be better as well. This wasn't a great performance by Linares anyway, so Crolla needs to take some other fights first.

I believe there was a rematch clause in the contract.

A rematch would be fun again i'm sure but the outcome will be the same.

My complaint is the home town deal, they scare you to death with the scoring and commentary. Crolla didn't shame himself, he deserves a chance to get his tin back, just do it somewhere else. Anthony, he can't beat you any worse in Las Vegas.

Crolla seems to be a genuine nice guy and all but let's face it, he is a C-level, british level fighter who i knew stood zero chance against LINARes whose about two levels above him.

I know he had home advantage but the odds were way off .. the bookies slipped up bigtime which was why i layed down a G note on my boy linares haha

I dont want to see a rematch. Crolla sucks

[Corelone]

Crolla is actually too nice. He fights as fair as anybody I've ever seen. The ref was active on Linares, for supposed low blows, but Crolla never gave the ref any work. Paulie yelling he needs to learn how to clinch is true. There were no clinches at all, Crolla stepped back and gave Linares too much room and respect. A little more mauling would have been nice for Linares' complexion.
