    Any way you mix the guys at 126 makes for fun fights. I think Santa Cruz still holds the advantage although Mares rebounded well against Cuellar. Mares can still pull off the win tho as this is no gimme for Leo.

    Mares started like a house on fire and I thought he was going to win the first time they met. It was action packed but I can not see Mares winning.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Santa Cruz surprised me with his boxing ability that night. I thought he would be the one storming forward but the roles were reversed. If the rematch is anything like the first we will be in for a treat.

    Cruz used the exact same skills and patience to beat Frampton in the rematch.

    He did. I wonder how much his fathers illness played in his first loss.

    Did not realise that. I think Cruz loves to fight and go at a pace because no one can match him. Frampton picked him off in the first fight and just won but the pace against Mares was too much for Mares and he wilted.

    I think Mares kept pace with Leo, the cut Mares suffered in the 3rd might have played a part. Santa Cruz used a composed attack to assert himself by the mid rounds. He was landing the cleaner shots; especially the right over Mares' jab.
