    Whether it helps his punch resistance or not I don't know, its possible, but he needs to move up regardless. He looked as bad as Cotto at 140 on the scales. He had bones sticking out everywhere, didn't look healthy at all.

    Vasquez, Lopez at Super-Bantam are definite no-no's.

    They could seriously hurt him.

    Vasquez was a serious runner for his next fight if he had of beat Poon. Talks had been made and Izzy said he was up for it as he sparred with Dunne for 3 years in the wildcard back in the day.. That could of been dangerous

    Everyone keeps saying Munroe cant punch?? He might not be a KO artist but I tell you what have you seen the size of the guy?? He is a solid, massive Super Batamweight is Kiko Martinez couldnt put a dent in him how can ****ing Dunne? Dunne aint a big puncher himself. Dunne is a decent boxer but thats about it, this guy is so ovverated its unbelievable. Not sure where this dude goes form here to be honest. He aint good enough to mix it with top, top, level operators but is he gona be motivated to fight at domestic level. The thing is Dunne Vs Munroe should have happened already but Dunne and his management were acting all big charlie saying they are looking for biggger challenges than Munroe.lol. Looks who laughing now, Munroe got the Euro strap so he would be the one calling the shots anyway. Munroe should shun Dunne like he did to him.

    I stopped at this point. That means absolutely sweet **** all my friend. I could show you a highlights package of fighters Dunne has fought who are pretty chunky at the weight who landed on Dunne and he didnt even blink...

    By who,How is he overrated?? nobody overrated him. If anything he has over achieved. He was WBA champ for ****s sake...
    As i've said, nobody was calling him a world beater, everybody was quite realistic about how far he could go......
    But yet you keep making this point.

    I don't think (well I know he isn't) a big puncher, Munroe, but I think late on he was sitting on his shots more against Martinez and discouraging him.

    Had he done that earlier rather than soaking up shots and allowing Martinez to tire himself out I wouldn't have ruled out a stoppage.
