I forget who I actually had winning the fight, but I remember it being a good fight. I've still never seen the second fight, I moved on the day of the rematch and didn't get internet for like another week after moving. The day of the first fight, I was paintballing at my friends house in the mountains and watched it there. No one cares about this stuff, but I only mention this because I was recalling paintballing and started thinking about this fight yesterday. Weird that it would get brought up here.

Like Spicoli said, Juarez just let everything slip away simply by not letting his punches go. Beautiful left hook when he actually decided to throw it that actually made me like him as a fighter. He was incredibly frustrating against Zahir Raheem in a fight that he probably lost but got a decision in Houston. Then the Soto fight I was hoping woke him up a bit. He had all the tools to actually be an exciting fighter. A sturdy chin, short power punches, good skills cutting off the ring but he just never punched. It's the most frustrating trait a fighter can possibly have from a fan's perspective. The fact that the Barrera fight was his best performance is indicative of how much he let slip away.

I just looked at his boxrec and it has him fighting Gamboa. I'm behind on my boxing news but I'm assuming that's boxrec's usual bullshit right? I refuse to believe it's not.
