Theres no doubt Linares is a highly skilled boxer,he’s had commentators purring over him,would it be fair then to say mentally he ain’t all that much?cause at this level I reckon it’s the mental side that separates the best. Amir Khan would be an example of a guy with Miles more talent than those who beat him,maybe they have too many options which is why they often get caught running onto shots? Re Lomo I wouldnt wanna see him against anyone’s bigger than Linares was that night,I’m guessing he was the equivalent of a Welterweight whereas Lomo is tiny.
Moron I compared pac and mayweather and the fact that it took Mayweather 10 rounds to finish hatton , but Pac did it in two so using your logic mayweathers stock should have went down. Mayweather went 12 with Baldomir who is much lesser fighter than Linares , but it took just two rounds for some argentinian bum to finish baldomir. Does that make mayweather a bum?
If you apply this same logic to Crawford's opponents post fighting him it gets real ugly. It's kind of like the ''but Crawford beat 2 Olympic gold medalists,'' ''Loma is beating smaller fighters,'' and ''but Walters was inactive'' arguments the Crawford fans use to try and tear Loma down - you think you've scored a great goal but when you look at the back of the net of your goal it's full of footballs lol
