boom2x is still young and still has the tools to be a filipino boxing superstar. his chin showed weakness but its against pdl who is a known heavy puncher. i believe that his manager was greedy and fed boom2x to the lions too early in his career.
No matter how Bautista prepare his chin with a good neck and jaw exercise,.. HE WILL NEVER POSSES THE KIND OF CHIN LIKE PAC HAS. It's genetic bro.
again his chin showed weakness we both agreed to that. saying this early that boom2x is a fluke is wrong. he was rushed by his team to earn money by fighting a veteran heavy puncher.
he might not develop a granite chin BUT HE CAN DEVELOP GOOD DEFENSE AND FOOTWORK to avoid getting hit like that plus he has dynamite in both hands. so that pretty much evens up everything.

I guess you saw the second coming of "El Terible"... but this one is still a kid...
B - I - N - G - O ! ! ! Ciso 'kid terribleee...' Morales ! ! !
Watch out for this kid, fellas, he could be the next real deal.

Well, I guess that remains to be seen. But I strongly doubt he can follow the Pac's foot steps. ;)

LOL! ;D
Sorry pare. But he's got tons of flaws. They're just overhyping him. I hope he proves me wrong though.

i highly doubt it, the last punch that knock him down was from hussien husseins jab.
That was my point, his chin is improved. Meaning it's not out of question for Bautista to come back with a better chin but like I said this is off topic.
I see your point, another thing pac has improve on is not running right into a punch to cause a punch to affect him worst. I guess its not only chin but defense. Rey actually has a decent defense but he was really tagged with a good one by ponce. Hopefully rey can improve chin resistences from power shots.

Haha, pacstraightleft my boy, so you're not impressed huh, hmm. I didn't know there's a hype though, I thought the hype was for AJ. I'm worried about AJ's chin and have a nagging feeling he might go down once he face tough Mexican fighters, I hope I'm wrong though. Actually the moment I saw Kid Morales I thought he might be it. I thought he was overall good well-balanced fighter with excellent jab and I like jabs. It's early to say though so you might be right. We'll see few more fights before we decide.

Re: AJ Banal to face winner of Kirilov v Darchinyan
First of all, this thread is inaccurate
AJ Banal lost his last fight via TKO in the 10th in the Philippines, how did lined up as mandatory challenger?
He lost to an untested fighter with 10 wins i even forgot his name.
Second, Darchinyan fought Z Gorres in the Philippines and the fight was held to a draw (a shameful fight which clearly saw Vic won by big margin)
That fight was an eliminator for Kirilov
When the fight was held to a draw, Vic was chosen to fight Kirilov and the winner of Kirilov-Darchinyan should face Gorres next.

Pac got KO'd in his early career too. So obviously chins can improve. Although I don't think Bautista's will, Pacquiao has been KO'd before so he's not some superman who's had an iron jaw since birth.
Anyways, to the topic, after seeing Banal I think he is one of the better prospects in boxing, the hype is true and it's amazing to me that he's only 19. There are few things better then a good southpaw and that's what Bazooka is.
One trait prospects always seem to have is the lack of poise, whether it be the way Amir Khan gets overexcited in his fights or the way McGirt Jr. last not was not able able to stay composed after getting hurt, not knowing to clinch. It's something that goes away eventually for the good ones and Banal 90. Maybe it comes from all the high profile sparring with Pacquiao and others on the GBP roster, but he is very calm in the ring. He wastes no movement and he never lets an opportunity to score slip. A straight jab sets up his offense and his left hand is textbook, no looping, chopping or overextension and it always catches opponents at the end of the punch. He never falls in with the left, always balanced ready to punch or move out. Short quick steps give him an excellent feel for distance and he holds his hands high as part of a good defense.
I agree Sal, I think Banal beats both of them. Maybe Darchinyan can land a bomb and test the chin but for one, I think Kirilov beats the duck Darchinyan, and two even if Darchinyan wins I don't think he could catch Banal and we would be seeing a replay of the Donaire KO.
Big things from Banal, a big fight with him and Nonito is going to happen one day down the line because they are both the real deal.
Pac was KOed not because of a weak chin. It was because of dehydration and body shots.
His body had improved a lot that's why he difficult to KO now.:cool::cool::cool:
