How would you describe his fighting style, 'Dumb Ass Texan' or 'Boneheaded Mexican'? The guy is starting to take too many punches, pure and simple.
What do you think?
First off, do you know where I can see the full fight. I only caught the first few rounds as I had to work. Second, I'm a big Omar fan. I think he is a bit to dedicated at giving the fans an action fight to his own detriment. Have you seen interviews with him, seems like a truly nice kid. He was apparently being scouted by the pros as he was an excellent picture. Very bright guy but seems he thinks the best defense is overwhelming offense. I have yet to see him in a boring fight. He also looks better each time out but I fear if he didn't developer an effective defense he may not be long in the ring. I have been dodging most of these threads as I still need to see the fight. If anyone has a link I will be much appreciated. Bottom line, I'm big on Figs, hope he developed a good defense and has a long successful career. I've actually been following him since did first pro fight and it may seem strange but his defense has actually improved quite a bit. He's young, hopefully he can refine a bit because he is a class act and an exciting fighter. I think he's been having a lot of hand trouble lately, in all honesty, he's one of my favorite up and comers at this time. Once again, anyone got a link or a suggestion, I checked youtube once and it either wasn't up yet or was taken down.
