Linares has a glass chin? The guy got up at the 8 count walked to a doctor, who declared that a minor cut didn't let him continue. Somehow you get dropped once and you have a glass jaw? He wasn't ko'd and they should have let that fight continue. Linares now realizes that Roach is overrated as a trainer. Outside Hill and roids Toney he has done nothing, but Pacman with Ariza shakes.
This content is protected :yep don't worry, I think Mosley will KO Alverez as well. I'm putting 5000 Vcash on that fight :thumbsup
:think I was wondering the same thing. It's rare when we have a paper face, glass jaw and glass body.
If you watch the fight, it has little to do with Roach. Linares looks fragile ang got hit by the same punch over and over again. Pac and Khan keep their hand up. Linares tries to cute and roll with the punch, but hes not very good at it. DeMarco is not a big tough guy, but he outlasted Linares easily. Linares is athletic, that's it. He's not intelligent or tough.
That is an extremist view. Tune-up fights are what guys fight when they need to work on things and get some good hard rounds in. Its not a crime to not be fully challanged. It is really stupid however if you are a match maker to put a guy whose just been knocked out in a war in with a big puncher. Because after getting knocked out you should know your fighter is probably going to try and test himself at times in the fight (in order to get his confidence back). Now how smart is it to take a guy with a huge knockout percentage and give him a chance against a fighter whose probably going to try to get his confidence back at some point by slugging?
^ I saw Linares take boom after boom before going down in the DeMarco fight. I would call it not granite. But far from glass. That **** is badly overhypedatsch
Linares should fire GBP. This guy doesn't need to be put in there with any pressure fighters. Top Rank is pretty good at putting their guys in there with them setups long enough to get the big mogney fight. Linares needs to call Uncle Bob. Eric Gomez is a novice. Young GBP fighters are constantly getting exposed.
No, he has a glass jaw. There are plenty of stories about the guy getting knocked out in sparring, with headgear on.
