i think saying luevano will knockout concepcion is a stretch. he hasnt knocked out anybody in like a couple of years now. concepcion looked shitty in his last fight. i know he was pissed because he was supposed to fight for a title in a televised matched but then went on to fight a tomato can in a curtain raiser 6 rounder, but he should have blowed that guys away is he was indeed ready for a title shot. i think luevano would box and frustrate concepcion and get a UD. but i sure hope concepcion catches him with something and makes it a fight
i've had luevano on my "possibly shot?" list now since the mario santiago slugfest i still think he has enough to beat concepcion though luevano UD
Well I'll be rooting for Concepcion who I think has a much higher ceiling than Luevano. I'm not sure however who I favor to win quite yet.
i think luevano is a little underrated in the power department he basically annihilated nicky cook who then went up 4 lbs and won a strap at 130 before you guessed it getting annihilated again
nicky cook is absoluetely not the fighter whom you want to just your power on. i am not saying that he is a malignaggi or something. his punches do have some pop. but i really dont see him knocking out concepcion. maybe he could stop him with a cut or something but not knock him out.
luevano is a solid fighter but a tad too cautious in opinion. i actually find his fights too boring. if he continues in this career path, i see him as another JMM, always staying on the fringes of stardom.
he should thank the high heavens if he ends up anywhere close to what jmm has become. i think luevano will only be a title-holder who would lose to linares or john if they are matched up.
The masses are desperate for the next MP? Not so. I'm 100% sure. The people are totally happy with what they're seeing now. It's the fighter's managers, they're the ones rushing the younger guys. The people do not pressure them to fight the big fights ASAP.
luevano has the charming personality of a crawling pebble which i am sure will draw crowds composed mostly of his relatives. seriously, his fights are so boring. great jab, with a few meaninful combinations but very little pop in his punches.
i have to ask some of the people predicting early kos for concepcion have you guys even seen luevano fight?!
