Linares vs DeMarco..... WOW!!!

[TheMacMagician]

Loved it. What a fight. No spoilers. Just wow. Watch it NOW if you haven't....

I really like both guys. DeMarco is a great stalker lacking power and Linares has incredible skills lacking power.

Lacking power? Have you seen the KO / win ratio for each fighter?

And DeMarco turned the fight around by landing a couple of good punches after losing nearly every round. He did that because he hit Linares with enough power that Linares was a changed fighter afterwards.

It was a good fight, two very good fighters, well matched.

I agree 100 percent with you except for the lacking power part. Sure they are not KO artists but I do feel they pack power. Other than that you are correct. Amazing fight nonetheless.

Class fight!had everything!made up slightly for the farce that followed! Very impressed with linares the cut defo had a big affect on him he boxed great till then dimarco done really well to get the stoppage thow! Would defo like c Kevin Mitchell in ther with ether ov these guys.the lightweight division is looking pretty tasty just now!

Very nice fight with ebb and flow. Demarco has those lanky pointed kind of shots that look like they sap alot over time. Hopefully HBO will replay this one rather than main event implosion on next card. Both can provide huge spark in weight class.

Amazing fight, yet you won't hear any mention of this fight on espn or see any highlights of it. instead you'll hear about the fiasco that was hop dawson, and that sucks for boxing. Hope they rematch at some point cause I think linares if not for that insane cut on his nose could do it

[Rantcatrat]

Great fight. The undercard fights were excellent.

Fight of the year not seen better in a long time for bravery

Great, come from behind win for DeMarco. Full credit to him. With that said, I kind of felt it was stopped a little early. Yes Linares was hurt and a bloody mess. But I think he was dodging more than he was catching and had weathered the storm. Not to mention the round was almost over. But so be it. Either way it takes nothing from DeMarco's victory

I agree, should have let him whether the storm. I think the loss of blood was on the ref's mind. Heck it was on mine. Jorge would have been better off having a TKO from a cut 2 rounds earlier than fighting on with a loss of blood and then getting his clocked cleaned just to end up with the TKO loss anyway

My recreation of the last 2 rounds of the fight
