Re: Rey Boom Boom is back!
Win or lose on this one, I don't think it is enough for RB to redeem himself from his embarassing lost against DeLeon. But it's a good step for him taking this fight.
Re: Rey Boom Boom is back!
Rey doesn't have the chin to be champion. And I'm wondering if De Leon destroyed his confidence as well.
Re: Rey Boom Boom is back!
There was only one Boom Boom, and that was Mancini.

I think he could sstill be a champ. He is only early 20's and has a lot of time to perfect his craft, the natural talent is there. It probably wouldnt hurt him to fight a few guys that arent gonna beat him just so he can ease himself up to the top rung of fighters again. Gotta remember Ponce De Leon is a chance to spark anyone at that weight. I think Rey will be champ if he has enough heart to come back from this loss.

Probably none at the moment, but i think if he take a couple of years, maybe has 5 or 6 fights, against decent opp that wont necessarily beat him, and slowly builds up to another title fight he could be champ. I mean in two years he'll still only be 23, bit early to right him off for good already. He needs to be managed carefully tho.
Re: Rey Boom Boom is back!
Well i told everyone that he was rushing into the fight far too soon and De Leon was at his best he has ever been and i knew he would open up Rey early. I just think he should have had another 2-3 years on the world level stage before heading for a title and i think it was a great shame that he was put in so early with such a big reliabilty. So lets hope he can get over the loss and build from what he was building from before the defeat. I hope he gets some big names and builds that chin because i do believe he could easily be a world champion with the talent he has. Dont forget he is only 21, he has years on most people, hes still a lad and i think he develop into a very comanding fighter.

Cool Click,nice posting. You called it brother. I'm not sure if he can be a commanding fighter though,that kind of loss,at that age,can be devestating.

bro going in with the number one at the devison at that age is a very risking task! he took that fight far too early and was bound to get beat. its just a shame because his potenial wont be able to leak through because of this loss. i know rey boom boom has a lot more to offer than this dispiriting loss at this early stage.
im i the only one who think in the next few years who will think Molitor-Baustista will be a good fight?
Re: Rey Boom Boom is back!
I think De Leon turned Bautista into Bumtista. I can't see Rey getting over this loss. His chin won't let him.

Unfortunately for Rey Ponce isnt even number 1 in the division. Marquez, Vazquez and Caballero are all arguably better than him. Rey just needs to develop a defense before he fights anyone else in the top 5.
Re: Rey Boom Boom is back!
why is it that when you're a hyped fighter and you lose, you get written off quickly by the same people who hyped you in the first place? RB should be able to get back on his feet and become a world champion someday. fighters who fight will have a greater chance of getting KO'ed than those who simply choose to hit and run. if pacman became a champion after getting ko'ed, mind you, it was a lowblow that was called a KO, then there is no reason for RB not to become one as well.

It's not that Rey lost. It's the way he lost.

lots of fighters lost in a similar fashion. mosley lost to forest almost the same way. cintron if im not wrong got ko'ed as well. barerra lost to jr jones twice. im pretty sure a lot of the other guys here can add to my list. he will be back. maybe not overnight but he will be world champion someday

None of the guys you mentioned were knocked out in the first round. Bautista had questions about his chin coming in. And those questions were answered. He has no chin. He's a skilled fighter no doubt. But his chin will always hold him back. Not to mention his confidence. He considered retiring after the loss. So it's obvious he's not 100% sure about himself

yea i think him considering retirement was just a rumor, either that or he was just being immature. Rey is young, noun of those fighter fought 2 straight dangerous undefeated fighter when they were 21, in an event were all of his country teammates won there fights. It was huge pressure on rey, I think he will be back. you never know he may mature into something special. But we will see how he comes back, that will tell if his a true champ.

do you have to ko'ed in the first round to lose confidence? anybody could lose confidence after the 1st loss of career. heck tito trinidad retired after he lost to hopkins yet he came back and whopped mayorgas arse. now hes in a quest in fighting rjj. RB's chin was a given. we all know he has glass there somewhere. he's not the only one who has a fragile chin that got knocked down in the first round.
