Who wins this? Who's glass will break first? Jorge Linares 31(20)-3(3) This content is protected Hammering Hank 22(11)-1(1) This content is protected Something to keep in mind: Emanuel Steward - "As far as all around coordination and balance, Linares is one of the best I ever saw"
Lundy will **** him up, no doubt about it despite his garbage chin, he always gets up and finds a way to win and hes pretty talented [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzWCN6C84CQ[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSoLU-Jjmdg[/ame]
Lundy's last 2 fights on FNF have been pretty good :good You would think I would like him more since he's from Philly :yep
yeah, linares is pretty talented but its more flash than skill, the dude has no plan B. i cant see Linares stopping lundy that easily but i can see Lundy stopping Linares whether its on cuts or a brutal KO.
I would love for this fight to happen, they could call the event "Shattered Glass". I will go with Lundy because, while he does have one of the worst Glass Jaws in the sport, he is not also a Paper Faced Disgrace whereas Linares is. Lundy could KO him OR cut his face to ribbons, so the advantage lies with him. That being said, Linares is faster and a quick starter and given the atrocious state of Lundy's Mandible, all it could take is Linares to land first. If this happens I will probably attach a broken mirror to a leather belt and send it to the winner.
Bingo, I've noticed this. I don't hear a plan B from his corner, So i guess that's why he's looking for a new trainer. you know one who could provide a plan B maybe? Linares looks skilled enough to implament a plan B, C, or D. I could be wrong.
Really good fight. I agree with the guys above, Lundy has the ability to make adjustments, Linares has not yet shown that ability. In a fight as close on paper as these two, I take the more versatile guy. Lundy by UD.
It's much more complicated than that, each fighter has strategies tailored to their styles, and Vanes and Chavez have never tried to do any ambush fighting. Linares is likely looking for a new trainer because Roach didn't have time to train him at all. Linares seems to have a similar level of experience, and at this point I'd favor Lundy, but the question is who would keep their composure down the stretch if they got hurt. I don't know if Linares would have gotten knocked out cold by Lundy like that while up so much.
There's no question both would be hitting the canvas but I think Lundy has a better chin and doesn't cut so easily. If Linares can keep the fight at long range he can win rounds but at some stage he will be caught, he'll get cut and stopped. And I think that will happen to him against most world level opposition unfortunately.
Lundy is far faster and more skilled than Linares' last two opponents, both who ko'd him. Linares' paper mache face will be easy pickings for lundy's fast hands. Easy UD or tko for Lundy.
