Don't think Salido earned a draw, guy just seems to know someone. Poor Vargas needs zippers installed above his eyes after this. Nasty gashes in interview and probably long lasting

I think boxers cast themselves off by not fighting more regularly, particularly coming off a loss. It's best to get back in the ring as soon as possible to wipe that smean from a loss away.Quote:

Roy kinda talking out of both sides of his mouth as he praises a guy who was on HBO ppv before he even hit double digit losses? The ufc is basically the premier network for exposure same as hbo or showtime or lame ppv is to boxing. Tons of promotions and branding. Underdogs with sketchy records are really what make the boxing and mma worlds go round. I mean man Gabe Rosado was on the undercard Roy ;DQuote:

Good round by round and read. Will need to see this now.
Francisco Vargas vs Orlando Salido - full fight Video 2016 WBC
How many wars has Salido got in him? He's a machine!!! What a great fight that was, favourite one of the year so far for me.
That was a good fight! Both were at war with one another. Very entertaining. Salido can not keep fighting like this.
And having a head the size of a ripened melon doesn't help either. Such an easy target.Quote:

And why were the commentators so pro Ramirez in the first fight? Most of the time their bias is more subtle. Lopez would land some great punches then they would say "wicked body shot by Ramirez" and I was like "where? I've only seen Lopez landing his shots." Strange since Ramirez definitely didn't look that great. I doubt he really goes anywhere.
They were pro Vargas as well. The short answer is they are cunts.Quote:

Salido is sooo dirty!
I'd like to see his below the belt punch stats from that fight.
Wow what a fight! Big props to both, surprised neither man went down the whole fight...Didn't score at all but a draw seems fair.
It was a great fight but Salido has too many of these nerve racking, nail biting, bone cracking, hangover type morning after pain in the ass needs for motionless Sunday afternoons when he chooses to change his flight ticket for a few days later because opening the taxi cab door must be a painful ordeal in these fight of the year type engagements he gets involved in when the bell rings on fight night. With some of his ring tactics he does make people angry. Some referees still need eye examinations and that is all I have to say on that subject until someone comes up with a thread about his rough tactics.
I watched most of the replay salido is a beast. I don't think he is as dirty as we was but I didn't see the whole fight. The dude is a warrior every fight. Does he feel pain?
I thought he was finished after the wars with Lopez and Garcia beating him. How wrong were we?Quote:
