Comments Thread For: Schaefer: Santa Cruz vs. Mares II Announcement Getting Close

[bigdunny1]

Cruz won the first fight decisively no need to do it again. Mares will get beat and worse in the rematch. Mares is not the fighter he was 5 years ago that Gonzalez fight took a piece of his soul.

better fight than canelo vs chavez, manny vs horn, loma vs sosa or loma va marriaga! so why would people not be excited smh...

What are you talking about? There have been way better fights and match ups than the ones you've listed this year and better ones to come.

It's a rematch no one was asking for as Santa Cruz already beat him convincingly.

If you're happy with this then thats fine, but not everyone will be.

no one asked for manny vs bradley 3 times on ppv either! No one is asking for joshua vs wlad on rematch ppv either dummy! This rematch is better than all those! Plus it wont be ppv.... Stop crying like a housewife

Yeah I remember that, lol. **** I believe that at one point Roy Jones had Donaire at #2 or some ****. I think right after Pacquiao got KO'd by Marquez he was saying during an HBO telecast that Donaire was the new #2.

My how times have changed. Would Donaire even be in the top 200 pound for pound at this point? Lol

I honestly felt Donaire warranted a P4P spot. Nishioka, Mathebula, Vázquez Jr, Arce, Narvaez, Montiel, Darchinyan, Sidorenko, Marquéz, Concepción... Donaire was on a juggernaut run, near enough cleaned out everybody bar a dream fight VS Mares

I feel people forget how sick resume was because of the lacklustre post Rigondeaux section of his career whereby he abandoned everything that made him great and opted to become a one punch hitter

who cares? why is there even a rematch, the first fight was not even competitive...

Rematch is happening because the WBA want to consolidate the belts that the pair own into one WBA championship. Basically a mandatory for Santa Cruz.

Fight should have happened months ago imo boxing pisses about with its schedule

Again comparing it to other fights that wasn't asked for doesn't make this fight any better.

I'm not crying, i just dont get the excitement for it.

Wow its not PPV so it must be good!

Solid logic there my friend.

[Santa_]

Can't wait

We want GRJ or Selby next!

[HarvardBlue]

Santa Cruz will beat him again. We've seen him come up with a better game plan against a fighter that beat him so he'll tweak it even more for Mares.

I would like to see Santa Cruz against Russell.

leo vs mares will sell more tickets than wilder vs stiverne lol! charlo vs lubin and williams vs harrison is on leo vs mares undercard at staples center!!! wilder could never fight at staples center! never

Im not talking selling tix. Purely a comment on another rematch that isnt needed whatsoever.

[Boxfan83]

Mares is still a very good fighter, but do y'all remember back when he climbed as high as #4 on some P4P lists? And I'm not talking about b-scene fan lists, lol. I'm talking about legitimate P4P lists.

In all fairness he won titles in 3 weight classes. Had he gone back down after the PDL win to his more natural weight class he would've been done much better career wise.
