de leon is tough..it just happen that there are too many elite 122 pounders...if he fight @ 126, he would beat larios, luevano and even john
He has brutal power, and an awkward technique doesn't mean no technique. A lot of those clumsy looking guys have figured out how to make it work for them. Ponce would be a hell of a difficult first fight at a new weight for Darch, and honestly I think De Leon would whack him the hell out of there.
I must be the only person who thinks Ponce De Leon is setting up to be KTFO with that awkward style of his.
De Leon fights ugly and can be ko'd but he is bigger than Darchinyan and the latter has his own issues as well. At least it will be an exciting fight. Oh, and I have no idea why but if Darchinyan moves up I can see him having problems with Caballero the most.
The fight I'd like to see is Penlosa vs. Darchinyan at BW. However, only if Penlosa comes through JuanMa relatively unscathed....even if he wins, I don't think that'll be the case. If he were to fight Vic soon (i.e before JuanMa) it'd be awesome, the ever-durable underrated technician Penelosa vs. the hardest hitting little man today and unified champ from the division below.
Vic will fall within one minute of the fight. Ponce is too big and too strong for Vic and Vic a purely offense minded fighter, has no defense to rely on.
i agree deleon is whack but he does have a knockout power and throws over 100 punches per rounds even though most of those punches doesnt connect. Vic doesnt have a good defense and is way smaller than ponce. One of those wild punches by deleon will land for sure and put vic to sleep. Even donaire knock vic the **** out. Imagine what ponce would do to him. :nut
