    Hands like Canelo BUT in 27 pro fights he has 6 finishes ?

    Belal has no finishing ability at all. He is and will always be a decision grinder of a fighter nothing special about him whatsoever.

    I hope Belal gets destroyed fast so we never have to pretend hes relevant or good ever again. Hes boring as **** and completely mediocre.

    Wrong Mexicans. More like Carlos Molina, because those are the slowest hands in the division.

    His hands were good enough to get the better of Leon in there.

    I mean, were they really? Belal had good defense on the feet but he wasn’t up there for enough time for me to say his hands had any effect on him becoming champion

    His hands gad plenty of effect. It was his standaup that froze Leon and had him on the backfoot, practically neutralizing his only realistic chance at winning.

    Leon had plenty of chances to put a hurting on Belal standing, but Belal neutralized him and actually won many of their exchanges, and helped set up his takedowns.

    If his hands sucked he wouldn't have been able to push Leon back with his offense like that. He landed some decent shots.

    Leon isnt very good either. Its just a poor division currently.

    Also I strongly suspect Belal was juiced to the gills in there. Lots of signs. We will see if he gets popped or not.
