Abner Mares vs. Eric Morel - Saturday night fight thread

[Mars_ax]

This fight needs to be over, how De La Mora won 24 fights is a mystery.

Give the guy some credit. After all, you're not the guy in the ring getting punched in the face by Anselmo Moreno.

So true, if Anselmo wasn't so small i'd probably have gotten KO'd by the first body shot.

Sorry to diss' De La Mora, but I just wasn't impressed him at all, his 24 wins must have been over cab drivers in Mexico.

I wasn't impressed with De La Mora. But he did lose a close fight with Koki Kameda. Who can fight and is ranked 6 by ring magazine in the weight class.

Think the fight showed the big gap between a legit top 10 guy in Kameda and an absolutely elite guy in the division like Moreno.

Mares & Moreno both put on fantastic performances!

Love to see them fight each other. Both guys are going to be a tough ask for anyone around the weight!

Those well placed body shots can give anybody hell, normally.

Yeah. De La Mora was overmatched. But he wasn't terrible. Sure he looked terrible, but he was in with a guy who was simply faster, stronger, and smarter. It's hard to look good with any match like that.

Angelo Dundee always said that there were no bums in boxing. For the most part, there's credibility to that statement if we ignore the extremes, like Charlie Zelenoff and Kid Thunder.

I was more impressed with Morel guts and heart than Mares youth and skills. In the later rounds there were openings that a younger more talented fighter could have taken and exposed Mares.

Morel is still a very capable fighter. Even after this. Mares is just very good!

Morel demonstrated that he is still capable to school a lot of fighters out there, just not Mares.

Morel vs. Victor Perez I think thats his name the guy who fought Mares to a near draw, that could be competitive.

Nah Perez is finished. After he was stopped by Darchinyan & now hasn't fought in a year.

Morel would be better of fighting an Agbeko or Ramos. He gives guys like Mathebula/ Molitor trouble
