Thread: " Jorge Linares is the greatest fighter I have ever seen " - Emmanuel Steward

The bum jap arakawa is a dead man walking.. remember where u heard it first..

Its going down this weekend..

linares reminds me of khan. a great boxer with no chin. arakawa is tough and i could see him pulling out a win but he doesnt have a huge punch so maybe not.

No punch to exploit chin = no win for the.. quote.. "bum jap" LOL nice one!!

Linares/Arakawa addition to the card was fantastic. Arakawa is a tough bastard. Bushido in Japanese means "warrior spirit". This dude has it in spades. I wish Linares' skin and chin matched his boxing prowess because he'd be a menacing fighter if it was the case. I like Linares in this one but it'll be fun.

I know what u mean about Bushido bruh but arakawa's mentality is more like the Bumshido that requires taking Banzais face first. He just eats punches like candies without throwing any back of significance and it's not the smartest way of fighting. It's poor man's kamikaze.

My boy Linares is going to break him down slowly and pick him apart in route to a tko. Im sure arakawa and his team are going to come in with the Bumshido spirit so they aint gonna throwl in the towel but the referee will wave it off..

It's going to be a blood bath with Linares landing at will.. banzai!!

I am a big fan Linares he is naturally talented hope he can win a title again.

I had great hope for him , but he is like a smaller Khan. Great offense, average defence, bad chin

Khan is finished as a top fighter if he stays at welterweight. Linares has still got some hope.

That glaring chink in Linares' armour will always leave him vulnerable wouldn't be surprised if Arakawa sparked him

dunno why you keep saying that, his only fight above 140 was against Diaz, who apart from an upset draw against Porter hasn't done shit above lightweight, Khan IMO is finished as a top fighter period doesn't matter where he goes, at 140 I doubt he'd beat Garcia in a rematch and even Matthysse would wreck him (no way in hell would his chin stand up to those punches), even a fight against Provodnikov or Alvarado is iffy, he could probably beat Rios if he boxed and ran most the fight but his chin wouldn't take a fight, there's a reason why he's not accepting the Mayweather challenge of fighting Broner and going in against Collazo now, and that's that I don't even rank Broner too highly, just the latest Berto

Disagree. I think Khan can still be a factor I thought he beat Peterson and was handling Garcia until he got caught I agree his chin will always be a factor but it makes his fights all the more exciting if Khan could box and stick to the fight plan I could also see him defeating Matthysse or Provodnikov, I'm not saying he would but he has the ability to win if he can stay out of harms way

As for fighting Broner, why should he fight on Floyd's undercard Mayweather f-cked him around and all that would doing is boosting Floyds PPV numbers. A signed guarantee that he'll get Floyd next would be the only way I'd do that

I said it time and time again, wtf has Khan done to earn a shot? Maidana is gonna lose but he has done a hell of a lot more than Khan, Mayweather doesn't need Khan to sell PPV's, his track record speaks for itself, if he can still manage to do a million buys against a usually boring guy in Guerrero he'll do just fine against an exciting guy like Maidana

Khan's false sense of entitlement is what gets to me, IMO he shouldn't have lost to Peterson, Garcia has only looked sharper since the win in a masterful performance against Matthysse and IMO his confidence has him on another level right now, I'm tired of hearing that Khan got screwed out of a fight against Mayweather cause he never deserved the fight in the first place

I never said Khan should get the shot and I agree Maidana is the more deserving of the two, but Mayweather did f-ck Khan around I also agree that Garcia has looked great since that fight but the only reason Khan is in the Mayweather conversation is because of Floyd fans were talking Martinez, Pac, Bradley, Garcia or Lara etc. The only reason Khan was in the discussion was because Floyd had him on his short list blame Floyd
