    You know if Linares skin holds up I would pick him to beat Mikey Garcia.

    Let's not over rate Linares now. He's the same guy that folded down the stretch against DeMarco. He folded down the stretch this fight too.

    Two totally different levels of fight. Linares had already been KOed 3 times. Chenko had lost.

    They were both very good. CJ might be HOF.

    Linares is on the Broner level of achievement. Broner would have walked through him at 135 though. Not competitive.

    I saw Linares get out foxed, out boxed & mentally broken by a smaller fighter who knowing he had an injured shoulder adjusted & still took his soul! KD or no KD...

    I gave Linares 2 rounds. Granted 2 more were close but Loma out landed him..

    Linares was bigger than Loma, so of course it was a tough fight. Loma is still superior though.

    Ffs, that was the guy's fourth post since 2013, and his previous post he defended Loma's competition against an actual Loma hater, who called Rigo and Walters soft touches.

    John won without question. Marquez probably should have won against Norwood though he wasn't exactly robbed, it was close.

    Neither were anything special, John was better than Norwood though a ton of defenses against never heard of's is not HOF material. You got people arguing if Bradley is HOF worthy, if he isn't then Chris ****ing John isn't.

    Injured shoulder lmao. Stop, can't y'all just admit that Loma is not even close to as you guys make him out to be. Linares got knocked out by a guy called Yeyo.. lol. Keep that in mind.
