It's a performance to turn a fight with Mormeck into a boring one...Oquendo succeeded ! Ruiz vs Oquendo ????? WOW ! I didn't see that but I imagine how "great" it was ! Was is fun ? If you say it was entertaining it will be hard to believe... Ruiz managed to stop Oquendo : the best clincher won it's logical after all.
The OP has a strong French bias, he's only posted in topics regarding French fighters so take what he says about this fight with a grain of salt.
I am biased cause I usually root for the agressor who tries something against the guy who tries to avoid the war with dirty tacticts. I post about french boxers cause I post about fights I watch in good conditions. But I don't always root for the french boxer : I hated the decision given to Bruno Girard against Lou Del Valle for example... I read your R by R, it's a cool job but your way to judge a round is strange. You don't see that Oquendo was the guy who was on the defense and that he used dirty tactics to avoid the war ? Controlling with the jab is legit but clinching is not ! There are 4 criteria to judge a round : - agression (pressure, jabs) - strategy, moves - defense - power punches The 4 criteria are important but of course the power punches is the most important criteria. In many rounds you give to Oquendo he was under the pressure, he had a non existent jab and he was unable to keep Mormeck at bay (he didn't move very well and he was obliged to clinch to avoid inside fighting) . Oquendo landed nothing really effective but a few uppercuts and elbow shots after clinches... His strategy was clearly to wait for Mormeck to tire to turn into the agressor and it failed. Of course Mormeck was not very efficient but at least he was the agressor, he was able to get inside, his guard was tight and he threw more punches (and he landed a few good hooks and 1-2 combos)
Like give 2 shits? 20,000 posts and you don't discuss boxing ? Whaqt are you doing here than, fool? and please, instead of saying random bull crap, please....enlighten me with a post on your thoughts of what I said was wrong. Cause if you havent seen the fights, which you probably didn't, id shut the **** up then.
I probably coulda seen ruiz v Oquendo by now but I dont want to. From what I understand there were more clinches (like 100) from ruiz than punches landed by him (like 95). I dont know if those are the exact numbers but both were close to 100. That sounds downright terrible.atsch
What do i need to do that for when you have formulated an opinion on Mormecks performance vs Oquendo when you havent watched the fight and indicated so in a previous post? Why do i need to debate with you when you think Oquendo beat Toney Holy and Byrd clearly when first off their ledgers tell us otherwise and additionally Oquendo's career vs top flight opposition has been a resounding failure? Why do i need to enlighten you when its clear from all those fights that Oquendo doesnt even have a case? You sir are an idiot with a strawman argument that i neither have the time nor the patience to enlighten or entertain. http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/youare
I have already stated that mistake but obviously you keep trying to shove it down my throat to give you a sole reason not to provide information in your so called dumb beliefs into why you "rarley" post on the General Forum. I have seen all three fight with Byrd, Holy, and Toney and those fights alone prooved to me that Oquendo is a fighter who is a stepping stone for more bigger fighters to beat him even if he gets shafted by the judges. You need to "debate" with me for the sole fact this forum is crap. Instead of posting dumb and rude posts with no clearification on your opinion, maybe you should try to improve the forum yourself with your so called "knowledge" on how I am wrong? Im not the one making this forum bad, its you.... His career has been a failure becouse boxing is more of a buisness than sport. Which is also one of the reasons on why this sporting is falling down from mainstream news. Oquendo was used as a "good but not good enough" type of opponent for fighters like Toney, Byrd and Holy so they can beat him, weather or not they actually do, so them fighters themselves can improove thier careers/rankings towhere they are/were at. Oquendo doesn't even have a case? Why don't you do yourself a favor and watch those fights and than come back to me.... cause you obviously either haven't seen them or you are just sparying this bullcrap to save yourself from aruguement. A 20,000 pllus poster with no time and patience? lol ok.
