    Comments Thread For: Jorge Linares is Unfazed at Fighting Crolla Again in The UK

    On March 25th, WBA lightweight champion Jorge Linares (41-4) will travel back to the UK to face Anthony Crolla (31-5-3) in a rematch of their September war that Linares won by unanimous decision. The fight will once again take place at the Manchester Arena and Linares said that he plans on winning the rematch in dominant fashion so that there will be no talk of a trilogy fight.

      I remember when every fighter was luring Breidis Prescott to the UK, now Linares will make his career there.

        Jorge Linares will win this fight again! But this time more convincingly. Crolla is only going to fight the exact same fight, and at elite level that is a massive problem! when you are competing against a multi-dimensional fighters such as Linares.

          I'm sure he has no complaints about getting paid again for a fight he already won pretty handily

            Yea, I'm not sure why this fight is happening again. Was there a rematch clause or something? The first fight wasn't especially close.

              Will be even EASIER the second time for Linares. Don't even see the point to this rematch honestly but I guess Eddie must be paying Linares good money to continue to OWN UK fighters in their Backyard lol

                Linares got cut! which made things look more dramatic. I cannot remember whether the cut was due to a punch or accidental headbutt? nevertheless, that fight was the first time i had really paid attention to Linares! and i was very impressed by him! seems like a decent fighter.

                I believe the fight is happening again, because it makes business sense! good exposure for Linares aswell.

                  Crolla is obviously banking on just surviving to get a robbery
                  and then Crolla, Hearn and the brit fans will justify it saying "it was close"
                  Then we'll hear about a trilogy that never happens unless Linares gets old....
                  Crolla never had to give Linares a shot. He could have fought Fana or Orlando. Crolla said he wanted to prove he's the best. He could have fought for an easier title instead of this rematch. Hearn's a crook.
