Eden Sonsona is ferocious

Koreans are pussies and they will never make a mark in the boxing world. Lets not even compare boxing histories between the two, you will not win. And Wilfredo Gomez is the best at his weight class of 122. Wanna put up a poll of who was better between Gomez and Chang?.....I promise you Chang won't win the poll.

 

Yeah and many PR in and out the US have become doctors, lawyers, singers. And the US is the most powerful country in the world so why would Puerto Rico be ashamed of being a US commonwealth?.......And don't you live in America, so by your logic you are owned by the US as well.

And mob types?....LOL please give me a break, your people get slapped up and robbed by Blacks and Mexicans in LA on a daily basis.

 

OQUENDO KO'S SONSONA!

Puerto Rico's Jonathan Oquendo stopped Filipino Eden Sonsona in the ninth round seconds ago at the to win the NABO superbantamweight title at the Coliseo Jose Miguel Agrelot.

The end came at the 1:05 mark of the ninth.


Sonsona started strong in the earlier rounds, but a knockdown in the eighth frame seemed to have taken the fight out of him.

A big right put down Sonsona for the first time in the eighth, and another right in the ninth finished off the Filipino.

In an interview with ABS-CBN's Dyan Castillejo, Sonsona said the low blows from Oquendo seemed to have affected him in the fight, while trainers Buboy Fernandez and Nonoy Neri pointed out that the referee gave Oquendo enough time to recover.

Sonsona apologized to the Filipino fans for his failure to win this one, but said he will make it up next time.

 

****! How were you guys watching this undercard?

That's a pretty big upset, up there with Smith-Tyner last night. It would have been cool to see. :verysad

 

no quit in them, much like the Japs. too much pride to just quit. suicidal to a point.

Damn it, this thread slipped my notice. Oh well.

Was Sonsona up on the cards when he got knocked out?

 

You live in Cali so you don't even know any PR's. But even you don't mean what you said. Koreans aint **** when it comes to anything related to being tough and deep down inside you know I'm speaking the truth.

 

To be fair, the Koreans that we see in the US are probably the cream of the crop, white collar, educated types.

Not the thugs and hardasses.

The Korean soldiers employed by the Japanese Imperial army in WW2 were known to be the most savage and brutal ones in the Japanese army.

And their boxers consistently have some of the thickest, hardest skulls and some of the biggest hearts in the asia-pacific boxing circuit. (so-so punch resistance to the breadbasket, though)

 

very well said bula :good

 

I am Puerto Rican. And I have to say, forget about boxing, if you know anything about history, you will not talk about koreans like that. Go back to school.

 

Boxers, mixed martial artists, and kickboxers. They have a reputation as a tough bunch across all combat sports.
