Abner Mares vs Gary Russell Jr

Mares wasn't exactly a career 122 lb guy. Damn the guy is becoming the new Carl Froch. Just win baby

 

I always found it strange that some people think slickness is the "kryptonite" of pressure. I think it comes down to the quality of the fighter and the style he masters, compared to his opponent.


Quality **** once again Bogo. :good

 

That's right; pressure caving "slickness" happens just as often. What matters is who is better on the night of applying what they do best :thumbsup

 

At this point Mares. Russell is too unproven to think otherwise.

 

You know what, This is the most sensible statement you have made and again, I am confident that on any particular night, the fighter who will be applying what they do best better will be G.R. He is simply the better fighter. Just because he is not grinding out fights like Mares, don't mean he won't go there if it's needed. I think he will get down dirty with Mares and be better at it. As for him not fighting anybody, ****, you gotta start somewhere and Mares is a good a start as any.Ain't nobody calling that man out and I can understand it. I wouldn't call out an ass whoopin either.:smoke

 

Yeah, he's Carl Froch but Russell is his Ward.

 

Yada Yada Yada, you ain't listening, What I'm saying is that everything he brings to the table is good but just not good enough. It's not about who he faced, but who he will be facing if he steps in there with Gary. He has never faced a fighter like Russell. He will pay for every mistake or miss-step and it will be painful. Mares ain't got no win with Russell, all he got comming is an ass whoopin.:yep

 

Great contrast in styles, but, Gary's people won't put him in with such stiff competition just yet.

 

I'm listenin, you're just not saying anything to back up your claims besides "Gary's better".

 

Russell KO's Mares something ugly.
Mares gets hit cleanly way too much by slower handed fighters.

 

Cuase he's black,a brother :yep.Haven't you noticed the pattern by now.Sure as hell aint cause he's more skilled or proven.Mares tkos the unproven jr late.

 

I'm sure you said the same about Moreno/Mares

 

Mares knocks that unproven hypejob the ****out.
