    UPSET!!!!!!!!!!!

    Don't like this fight one bit for Pintor. He was a marathoner not a sprinter. Lupe thrived on hard fights down the distance. Well known for getting outsped early and closing with a rush. Among others, think about the 1st and 2nd fights with Alberto Davila. Over 15 I see Lupe taking this fight, but over 8, the faster Escobar takes a decision.
