    Rodriguez at this point in his career will only get better. This kid is very promising.

    He may or may not be ready for someone like Chocolatito, but he may very well surpass Chocolatito in his prime.

    No.... he won't. Chocolatito is an ATG, with an ATG resume that equals Canelo's in the lower divisions.

    Bam connected 66% of his power punches on SSR. Granted Sor Rungvisai is there to be hit but no other fighter has landed that much on him.

    Cuadras and Sor Rungvisai may not be what they once were but lots of fighters would still lose to them, especially to SRR. Beating them as comfortably as he did proves Rodriguez has upper level skills. Whether he ends as one of the best of the best or just very good still remains to be seen.

    Maybe or maybe he will get destroyed.
    Nobody done this to rungvisai, that was Lonachenkoesque performance

    I'm just happy with the fact a young clearly talent fighter took one of, if not the hardest route available to him. everyone biches and moas when fighters take the easy fight (and rightfully so) and here we have a fighter doing what he's sopossed too and what did that get him a "hate train". This site is just a punch line some times.

    Let’s not get too ahead of ourselves. Chocolatito is arguably the greatest small weight fighter ever.

    Bruh...

    Rungvisai is shot to smithereens.

    The version that fought Gonzalez and Estrada would eat Bam for breakfast.

    Not to mention Bam is huge at 115.

    Still impressive nonetheless. A young 22 year old beat a former world champ with ease. Not an easy feat.

    Also stumbling and not punching back, looking defeated and leaning on the ropes. Let’s not diminish a great win with silly what ifs and excuses.

    I was afraid this was going to happen tonight, but since I love Sor Rungvisai, I couldn't bear to pick against him, but I picked him to beat Cuadras without hesitation, because the route his taking is an incredibly deceptive one. It's apparent to anyone who follows the lower divisions even slightly that Cuadras and Sor Rungvisai have nothing left, and newsflash.... neither does Nietes, Ioka, Roman and Estrada, they're all ripe for the picking. It was a very calculated.... sure thing.

    Rungvisai is done!!! He's damn slow in this fight. I will tell him that it is time to hang them up.

    Lol, no. He tops out at 122 max. He’s going down to 112 and 108 in the future.

    I want to see Chocolatito fight Bam next, Cuadras and SSR were both clearly past their prime but Bam did a great job against them. Chocolatito looked great against JCM and will be a different challenge for Bam (I wonder how Bam deals with Chocolatito's angles)
