My boi @jorgelinares22 is doing great, controlling the fight with a strong quick jab, going into 3rd round Championship rounds for @jorgelinares22 tuff fight n he is cut on his eye n bridge of his nose, needs to stay smart, he has this fight won. Lineras stopped in round 11. Was caught wiv a heavy combo n a lot of blood dripping from his face, unlucky bro
Wow I feel so bad for Linares he had been boxing beautifully. I am very sure that he was cut from a sparring session with Pac, and that demarco just opened the cut. I hope there is a rematch.
Linares a great fighter, there should definitely be a rematch. I think the cut played a major role in that stoppage, the referee saw Linares face covered in blood and decided to call it, If Linares wasn't cut the fight would have carried on. On note Linare stated that his nose was cut by a headbutt, Nevertheless a great fight and would love to see a rematch
