    I am wondering what you guys think ....I wonder why he has not been very active. I have not seen him fight since Juan Ma floored him.

    He was over-rated anyway. Now that Juan Ma destroyed his chin - one of his best assests - he's even more vulnerable.

    I heard he was 'poncing' around somewhere:lol:. In all seriousness, I've heard nothing mooted for him for ages. I think he's just considering his options.

    Maybe he didn't.It asn't a prelonged 9-10 rounds of punishment like with Penalosa,it was a 1 round blowout.

    Maybe his chin is still there.

    to be honest he wasn't that good to begin with. that said i think he could continue doing what he was doing against c and MAYBE b level competition. he's not ruined, just understands his place in the boxing world a bit better now

    so true.. i was never impress with him. His boxing is very poor. He just had power and stamina that's why he was able to win so many fights. If you watch him fight all he does is throw wild punches. Lopez was able to outboxed him easily. If he fights anybody who is a good boxer. He gets beat.

    I really was not so much as outbox....more of overpowering although Juan Ma is a superior boxer as well
