    Not sure about rematch TBH. I think Rosado beats him, not because of talent but with his skin apparently fixed I think he is the sturdier guy with more in the tank.

    Not draining himself would certainly be beneficial. Angulo is a 160 pounder, always should have been. In North America lots of 160 guys kill themselves and their career draining to 154 chasing the money.

    If he had moved up 3 fights ago and not taken so much damage he probably could have had a great career at 160. Maybe he still can, but he has taken some beatings.

    Same as 154, beat some lower level fighters but come up short against the big names.

    Honestly, after the Canelo fight the only way to go is up. He looked so bad. No snap in his punches, lethargic, no defense.

    We both could be right, it could go either way, they're both tough as hell

    Your talking to Martinez's number 1 fan, but that last round did a number on him. I was just trying to make a point about Vera.

    Nah man,
    Gabs is very fresh, if his face doesn't cut he's a handful for anyone.

    Too bad he cuts so easily and so badly. He had peter just about ready to go but his face had other plans. Just too bad, possibly the best chin in boxing. .

    Hasn't been truly hurt in many years while fighting some big big hitters
