Jorge Linares: The Venezuelan Golden Boy The Flawed But Dazzling El Niño Del Oro

love his boxing techniques its real easy on the eye , just his chin lets him down from time to time

his boxing skills are superb

 

Great thread.. I can't believe not more people are talking about Linares.. Ya call yourselves boxing fans? lol smh

Watching Linares box is ****in orgasmic straight up..

Linares-Donaire would be a dream fight for me..

 

to his credit...there's more than meets the eye in the demarco loss. for one...he was traveling all over the place with roach..first to the u.s. olympic camp in colorado springs...then to the philippines for pacs camp where he was one of pacs sparring partners...and the fact that pac was NOT a good pick for sparring leading up to that fight. then he came back stateside for the fight. all that travel during camp...the wrong sparring...and just the fact that roach wasn't a good fit for him. he was, in my eyes, set up to fail. he does have a questionable chin. more than anything...i think he has the wrong guys training him.

 

He had a cut received during sparring before the Demarco. He had multiple ones open up during the actual fight, but it more than likely didn't help.

 

This guy Linares got mad skills!!always a pleasure to watch him fight!

 

Better stay away from terry. Terry will turn those lights out!

 

Felt bad for ira terry, that was a brutal ko.

 

Bout time.

Figeroua and Abril have been ducking Linares for some time.

Linares vs Crawford next hopefully.

 

Nothing like khan at all he understands boxing something khan admitted not so long ago , he as footwork something khan as not he as ring iq and can fight going forwards or backwards something khan cant do lmfao only on esb

 

I'd like to see Crawford-Linares. That'd be a good chess match.

I wouldn't mind Figueroa-Linares. I would pick Figueroa by KO.
