Whats with Jorge Linares?

u kno he fought a great fight vs demarco was maybe winnin till demarco tko'd him . think he just underestimated thompson, an the other fite vs salgadoi dont kno much of salgado n when that fite happened i didnt no who either these guys were, but look like linares is obvisouly lackin a chin.

 

I would love to work with Linares. (In my dream world.) He's second on my list of fighters to train, behind Miguel Cotto.

 

Feed him to da Problem

 

I think he seems to have a lot of potential to get better, I think if he can improve his defence he can get back to world level.

He seems to want to rolll his head with the punch rather than slip, parry or duck which can lead to him getting caught more than he needs to. I think he has the physical ability to learn to be a slick boxer.

 

He's had some horrible luck with cuts. Glass skin.

 

He rolls funny with the punches.

 

People give him **** for what Steward said about him, and that's not really his fault. He's an above average boxer with elite athleticism, and terrible luck (which makes for great fights for us)
