Comments Thread For: Flanagan vs. Verdejo Deal Reached For September 16

They don't match thier guys so hard in PR. They like to KO everybody and make the crowd happy. How do you KO everybody at home, like that Angel Acosta guy, 100% KOS, then leave home and lose? The home cooking is great in PR too.

You don't what you're saying. Acosta is a top 5 at his weight, he was dominating the first 2-3 rds in that fight then he got tired after that.

Sorry I just haven't see anything from Verdejo since he turned Pro his Defense is bad! Looks like another JuanMa Lopez in the making who ate punches until he couldn't eat them anymore

But we shall see all it takes is that 1 Magical Performance and the next thing you know Arum might have another young star in the making to go with Loma and Crawford

Verdejo probably could pull this one off with that Natural Talent and Ability! But having seen Flanagan the last 2 Fights I as well as others might be underrating him. He has nice skills and knows how to use his size!

Stop with this BS. Linares came to UK and got a decision vs Crolla in the first fight, which was close, and won widely in the second. Crawford, Zlaticanin and Indongo both beat Burns on his home turf. It's not all gift decisions to the home fighter in the UK, that's a misconception that's been misproved many, many times.

If you follow boxing or any sport for that matter you know that home advantage includes but is not limited to:

Fans cheering even when you miss
Which can affect Judges scoring
Ref can be siding with the local as well
Not to mention the commission
Promoters can and will buy judges when needed
etc... etc... boxing is ran by mobsters(suit and tie) not gangsters
