Okada/Arroyo: Wow! Just F.....ing Wow!

hope arroyo doesn't get discourage and keeps training hard.. one lost is nothing and he can come back from this

:hat

 

I thought the fight was a draw, myself.

 

Well well well...

But hey, cheer up man, one loss is no biggie, the best always find a way to learn from the mistakes and come back stronger.

 

That should have been a draw. Great scrap.

 

Better to lose now, early in his career, than later.

 

Arroyo second fight in two weeks, sometimes you just have to be very careful choosing your opponents when fighting back to back. Arroyo could perhaps beat him in a convincing way in the future, but it's a great wake up call just like for Kenny G.

 

tell him to look at pacquiao... that would be a very good example and encouragement.

 

Takashi Okada

 

All action fight! And you're right that both guys demonstrated surprising ring competence considering how early on they are in their careers. Arroyo was the bigger guy and seemed to have more power, but Okada outhustled him with speed and landed the cleaner shots. Nice to see them both attacking the body, too. Will definitely be keeping an eye out for these guys.

 

Was just reading last interview with Arroyo. He seems to be taking it OK. I think he will come back stronger. This was a good lesson. His first three fights were easy KO so this was a surprise for him. Better to learn early that not all opponent will fall down when hit

 

No excuses please, Okada won the fight. I scored it 39-37 for Okada, scoring the 4th round even, Arroyo only won the 3rd clearly but Okada was too much for this guy. Great fight though.

 

Anybody got a video~??
