Abner Mares having second thoughts about Miura.. doesnt want the risk
What happened to this proud warrior? Is this the same mares who fought killers in the tournament?
I guess one cant blame him after getting knocked out in 1 rd by somebody who he was supposed to walk over...
He's not sure if he wants miura..
Re: Abner Mares having second thoughts about Miura.. doesnt want the risk
It is official. Mares rejects Miura, instead, he wants Santa Cruz at a catchweight or at 126!
I dont blame him tbh. Ive always thought he wasnt big enough for 126 so for him to move up another division to face a champ like Miura after getting sparked wouldnt be a wise move..
Mares belongs at 122 and a fight withcruz would be perfect at The Home Depot center.. this is an LA fight..

Do you think GB would let this fight happen?

Yea.. after all, they were willing to throw him in there against Miura after a devastating defeat..
Im pretty sure they have no problem matching up mares and cruz especially because these two will never be huge cash cows given that they are small fighters...
Gbp has a deep stable and its the guys in the bigger weight divisions that bring in the money and plus, u look at their history and GBP are into making the best fights unlike top rank...
Mares-cruz can happen easily..

Gonzalez put the fear of god in him… he's gone soft!

Looks like he lost some balls for sure...
First he faked an injury to get out of a rematch, then he pushed the date back only to cancel it all together, and now he wants to fight a superbamtam at a catchweight..
Like I said, I dont blame him but he's looking soft ..
Only fighter who lost out is jhonny .. now where is he gonna go..
Re: Abner Mares having second thoughts about Miura.. doesnt want the risk
Mares just gave Jhonny a gift for his retirement ;D it was all a fix :p
Still interested in Mares-Santa Cruz :) it was it talks before Gonzalez derailed things :(

True, Cruz will be in his face all night and that is what makes thing fight so intriguing..
Despite the loss to Jhonny, Mares is still a very good fighter. He can box, he can brawl, he can counter punch, and he can fight going backwards ... he's very capable..
Santa cruz might never be the same after a fight with mares...
This one could turn out like Marquez-Vazquez!
I know Mares is smarter than that but he might not have a choice but to get into a tear up when cruz is up in his face all night long..
Re: Abner Mares having second thoughts about Miura.. doesnt want the risk
He's just moved to feather and now they want him to move up another division and fight a legitimate champ for the first fight after he got sparked in the second round. That's asking a hell of a lot.
He's just trying to do the best thing for his long term career. You can't blame him either.

@FinitoElDinamita, should this fight happen I want a sig bet, because I've said for the last 18 months that Santa Cruz would maul Mares.
Re: Abner Mares having second thoughts about Miura.. doesnt want the risk
Mares just needs to get back into the ring. The longer he is out the more unsure he will become. He is in the same boat as Nathan Cleverly who lost his undefeated record by being knocked out. Psychologically it has affected their confidence so much that they are hesitating to get back into the ring.
