That was pretty bad. De Leon just looked so much bigger. Bautista was completely out of his league.
it was a match that was goingto end fast one way or the other. you could tell that from the gate.Quote:

I think all of the pressure got to Rey as a 21 year old I can't remember anybody going into a fight with so much pressure and against one of the hardest hitter in the division. The pressure just made him much weaker physically coming into that fight and now the knock out lost is making him mentally weak.
I hope ponce rematches with caballero and knocks him out.
one of those announcer was Nonito Donaire. that lady there is the same lady that I watch interview Ponce before the fight, thats when Ponce said he underestimated gerry in their fight so he only rested a week after that fight then went right back into the gym to train for boomboom. thats when I first saw the new hair cut of ponce too hehe
Seeing rey get stop is sad, the baby of the philippines you can almost feel the dissapointment. I hope he man up to this lost and comes back with vengences.
I know sometimes in boxing you have to take your chance at a world title shot as anything could happen. However I remember after Boom Boom's last fight the general consensus was that he was not ready. That is what we actually saw. If Boom boom was expected to win then I think the loss would have been harder to take but in my eyes he deserves credit for taking the fight. What he should now do is go back, regroup and come again. He should not quit after one loss.
Darchinyan v Donaire comes to mind when talking about the pressure and power. Only in this case it worked out for Donaire. Imagine fighting a guy that just beat up your brother, now there is pressure.Quote:

Unlike boomboom, the pressure of going for the sweep in a world cup, the pressure of bringing back home the title for his people, the pressure of fighting for his first title at the age of 21 now that is not comparable to Nonito vs Vic whatsoever.Quote:

Last thing you need to be going in with a sicko puncher like Ponce.

I was worried when I saw how tense Rey was, I was hoping that he would make it thru the 1st round, be warmed and relax and come out smoother in the 2nd round well we know how that turned out :o, I was hoping we would see a fight similiar to the Kastidis fight 2 weeks ago... Ponce is just a helacious puncher and decided to take the early night ;D
I agree with u JT, but also i gotta say that De leon was throwing the left very wide n wild n i feel he could be penalised for that flaw by a more expieienced more rounded opponent
Boom boom was too inexperienced not allowing himself to gain composure. He could have waited some time to recover from that punch. Instead, he immediately allow himself to fight again and be hit by a punch from de leon.
Anyway, he has more years ahead of him to gain the necessary experience and lessons to become a world champion.
Ponce looked a little to UFC-ish for my taste.Quote:
