He has everything. I was surprised as Hell...everyone was. I believe he will become world champion. Angulo is impressive also, but not "as" impressive. A future world champion also. Gambo has a way to go before we find out how good he really is. Time will tell. It's a shame HBO did not interview Martinez and Angulo.
Post-fight, in a press interview, Angulo called out JCC Jr. and Duddy. Either one would be a bloodbath probably.
He won't call out Sergio Martinez.......and I don't blame him, styles make fights and Sergio's style is wrong for Angulo. However, after they both become world champions, it could be a huge money fight!!!!!!!
I liked Angulo and thought he had an excellent style. Martinez is okay, but his style is a recipe for disaster at some future date. atsch :nono
Martinez is quality and ive been a fan since he came over to the glorious UK several years back and beat our two top light middleweights in Adrian Stone and Richard Williams. He is a future champion and im glad people are starting to take note:bbb
I told you guys he was the goods. Like the guy above, since he came to the UK and put away Williams I've kept a look out on him.
Its odd I never heard of this guy, I just checked his record and his been in the game since 97, he also got TKO'd by Margarito in 2000, his 33, so technically his a veteran. Its kinda odd that it took him so long to get to the top, but I guess better late than never.
Martinez (Hnd's down) Style wll never suit him against the elite. As for Angulo, His Caveman like brow will always be his downfall. (Cuts) (Someone give him Troy Dorsey's plastic surgeon's #)
Thats when I first saw him aswell. His KO of Saul Roman was very good also. Id be interested to see his fight with Margarito. Which I now see is on youtube.
I've seen Martinez fight before as well, he stopped Saul Roman with a body shot, can't remember if it was HBO or Showtime. I don't recall any of that head forward, hands low style. I think the guy was really just feeling it last night and he's trying to make a name as an exciting fighter. I think this guy is legit, but I don't like guys who act that cocky in the ring. If he continues to fight like this then I hope he does get KO'd, but easier said than done.
Basically he kept his hands below his waist the whole night with his head forward of his body, like RJ in his prime. He was talking to Bunema as well, and while I have no idea what he was saying, I'm sure he wasn't asking him if he was doing okay. I believe if you're that much better than your opponent then take him out; by not giving your best you disrespect your opponent. Lastly, he's a 33 yr old fighter who is 44-1 and has beaten no one of note, so there's no reason for him to be cocky. The only other fight of his I saw he did none of the above and I thought he looked great.
