    Whoever wins, this should be a good fight. I've only seen the one fight of Bautista so I'm not positive what he brings. From the fight I saw against Medina I'd pick DeLeon. Bautista is just too hittable for a guy who throws a lot of heavy punches like DeLeon. If there's more to him than the Medina fight than it could be a different story because it's a close fight as is. But I suspect the lack of defense and possilby being put in too deep too soon will spell big trouble for Bautista.

    Bautista has some pop in his punches. Can he stop De leon? If he hits De Leon with a solid shot I think he can . . . and I'm ****i'n praying for it.:yep After the "injustice" they have done to Gerry Penaloza, I'm praying that the other filipino exact vengeance on him.

    it could be argued that boomboom may have better defense that de leon but the latter's chin makes up for what defense he's lacking. boomboom on the other hand has been dropped by average fighters.

    I think Bautista will take it. I've haven't seen him take so many hits in than he did in the Medina fight. He opened up a lot more recklessly than usual. I think he was trying hard to put on a show being on the undercard of DLH-Mayweather. Normally he isn't so reckless and is more precise with picking his shots.

    Medina also proved surprisingly resilient --- Bautista was landing really well in the body. And although there were no immediate effects, it won Bautista the fight as the last rounds showed a tired and weary Medina.

    After watching De Leon embarrass himself against Penelosa, even being chased in the last round, I think Bautista will take it.

    dude. are you even serious? boomboom was given an 8 count on the medina match because the ropes were the only thing preventing a kd. if he wasn't given the count, there was a total possibility that he would have been tko'd. therfore, he was kd by medina and not just "tagged" as you claim to be. and he also was knocked down by gerardo espinoza early in their fight. either round 2 or 3. i don't remember.

    you're ignorance never ceases to amaze

    you're really a ******. i know that boomboom won, maggot. i'm not as stupid as you. my point from the very start was that boomboom's chin is questionable. i said a mouthful to educate your sorry ass.

    de leon cannot perform like how he did against old man gerry and expect to win. he just can't afford to do that against a young opponent

    Ponce de leon looked sloppy as hell the last time I saw him. But I reckon he should win a pretty good fight.

    I really believe bautista is still way over his head on this one. De leon too strong and seems too big. Hope I'm wrong but de leon by decision or late tko.

    i hope boomboom wins... but i think hes a bit being rushed here... a couple of more figths would've done him good... his chin is still suspect and i am hoping it can withstand de leons power, which is the only thing ponce has.
