No wonder he was gassed. 842 blocked and missed shots...

Barrios mistake was to start exchanging leather like that when he was clearly outboxing Juarez.
Something NOBODY imagined.
I know. I couldn't believe he was outboxing Juarez (mainly by outworking him). And I further could not believe that he abandoned that gameplan to trade with him when he was clearly exhausted. He got what was coming to him though, which is too bad because it seemed like he was on his way to a big win.
All those punches ='d gassed. Gassed ='d mouth open and losing legs. Mouth open and losing legs = getting punched with mouth open gasping for air, and no legs to hold him up when it happened. Bringing mention to the nasty gash from having his mouth open in the process.
I think the reason he started going crazy and just trading is cause he felt there was going to be some homecooking. I mean you could see it in the fight that he started getting wild after the scond bogus point deduction by the referee, he got frustrated and just started slingin shots and got caught a bunch while doing so which opened the dam cut. That referee by the was was a complete retard and I felt angered just as when I watched olympic boxing cause it was completely unfair refing in the olypmics its completely fucked up scorring and as the scorecards showed it wouldnt have really matered if barrios finished on his feet since somehow the judges managed to find a whole crapload of rounds to give to juarez. bunch of bs. Where as katisidis really needed to go all out and crazy but didn't ...weird scoring in both fights tonight.
Even if he would of stayed away the last 2 rounds he still probably would of lost a decision.
And now we get more Juarez, how about a title shot, fantastic.
Ha, talks are underway for Rocky Juarez-Chris John. I can't believe that.
I am glad Rocky won the fight he is a good fighter only lost to the very top guys so i dont hold that against him. As for the low blows i saw queit a few of them but the ones called were not the bad ones i found that funny to be honest. That number means nothing to me he missed most of them and did not seem to even hurt Rocky that much. Anyhow i was flipping out about that cut worst lip i have ever seen i think. Thank god for the great ko made the fight i thought it was boring most of it anyhow.
If that fight brings Chris John to Vegas, I'm all for it. I wouldn't count out Juarez in that that fight.
Here is a guy who has only lost decisively to Barrera and JMM. Those are the only fights in which he has ever looked overmatched. The Soto fight was very close. The first Barrera could have gone either way. Even if you had Barrios ahead on the cards, it's not like he stopped the guy with a lucky punch. He was landing the cleaner shots all night.
Last night, HBO was on his case all night long, and the had Barrios much farther ahead than he was in my book. I know Juarez isn't the most exciting fighter, but he's got a pretty good resume for 28. Worse fighters have held major belts. Just at 130 - He's a better fighter than Robert Guerrerro or Alex Arthur.
I've just watched some of it again and my final observation is Barrios fought like a spaz, what the fuck was he doing even if he was winning? And Juarez sucks and is ridiculously boring and is shit and is probably a Patriots fan and/or a Republican and is shit.
I don't even know why I watch Juarez fights. I'm not usually an angry person :confused:
