I still root for JuanMa to win. He's got enough heart for two fighters, putting to bed VD's moronic comments nobody pays attention to anyway. But back to JuanMa, he needs to pull a Cotto. That is, he needs to reinvent himself to make himself better.... maybe get himself a better trainer. He's got the power, and he's got the boxing skills in there somewhere. That's how he first started out, fighting smart. Short, powerful punches.... attention to defense.... methodical approach to taking his opponents apart. Then he fell in love with his own power, and forgot the rest. Plus, fighting in Puerto Rico is never good for him. He forgets strategy and goes for the impressive knockout, egged on by the crowd.
I root for him to win, but he's got to change his mindset.
