No Canelo- Lopez talk?

[ICB]

Not quite the fireworks i thought quite yet but its an interesting fight.

[Mars_ax]

Ponce's cut on top of his had to be from a headbutt?

[ICB]

Great punch from De Leon, Gonzalez was badly hurt.

[ICB]

I get the feeling that Gonzalez will get stopped late on.

[ICB]

Well he did get stopped but not in the way i thought, but i think De Leon edges it he scored a knockdown and started to impose his will later in the fight.

[ICB]

Good decision De Leon would of probably of stopped him late on anyway, i think Gonzalez was happy it was stopped.

[Spicoli]

Gonzalez lucky not to topple to the floor outside the ring, he got caught good.

PDl really pouring it on, Jhonny looked wilting last round. He throws those brutal 'axe handle' type shots

[Spicoli]

Ohhhhh wow . Crap ending on a nasty cut but PDl wins title on tech dec. You could see the tide turning

[Mars_ax]

Technical UD for Ponce, on to the main = Canelo vs. Lopez - come on Lopez, you can do it dude.

Some say it was stopped early, but i'm not so sure, Lopez was looking done. Like him or not Canelo is a tough kid, and built like a brick shithouse. Cotto/Canelo would be a fucking war, i'd love to see it.

Alvarez throws such surgical shots, his combinations are fast and accurate. Really enjoy watching him. The knockdown in round 4 was beautiful.

No matter who he is in with, he seems to keep getting better. I wasn't sure of him at first, but he is the real deal, future hall of famer I think. Going to be a real gem in his generation of fighters.

I think Shawn Porter is technically better than Alavrez.

Whens this dude going to fight someone with a pulse? FFS they are even waiting Cotto out until next May.

He's a young man with plenty of time. He is also intelligent, with a plan of his own. He is going to be a a much bigger star than he is now. He has impressed the hell out of me!

Lopez put on a brilliant effort, he was way out of his ideal weight. Saul was brutal and I think he could beat Cotto next year.
