Deleon exposed!

[rene69]

PDL wasn't exposed he just got caught by surprise, he was badly hurt and instead of trying to hold on he tried to trade. Hopefully he'll learn from this and come back stronger. U have to give credit to Lopez though he's burst onto the world scene in great fashion.

To call PDL a club fighter is just stupid, he's not a great boxer but uses what he has which is his power, he's great for the sport because he's not afraid to fight anyone and fights regulary.

Never said he wasn't great for the sport, but he is a CLUB fighter with power and it showed last night.

And it's pretty lame to say HE WAS CAUGHT BY SUPRISE, when he was just ousted by much better, technically sound fighter. Deleon was already at his limited peak.

Not exposed. Just so happens JuanMa has better skills and probably packs an even stronger punch. It happens Congrats Juan MA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do think he was caught by surprise, he didn't expect to be hurt like he was and I think Lopez's power surprised him and he didn't know how to react, yeah he was beaten by a great young fighter but still I think calling him a club fighter is pretty lame.

rene, no reply to my comment?

I think it's lame to say PDL was exposed because I think we ALL knew he wasn't skilled.

Ive said in the past as MANY others have how limited and catchable Deleon was ...Club footed with balance of a linebacker,over extended off lead punch,and hit on like a piñata but his power alone has brought him through with emphasis and was /is thunderous.Never thought Deleon beat Penalosa or Sod lookysomething in 1st fight but I'm always a little weary of tearing a guy down after defeat....It sort of diminishes the All credit due breakout showing and performance that Lopez displayed.He took a legitimately dangerous albeit flawed Champion and absolutely demolished him in short fashion...quick, precise and two fisted finisher was lopez.That right hook from southpaw stance is brutal.These two just looked to be going in opposite directions and on very different levels.

PDL defended his belts many times. He just got caught with a good one by a better fighter.

Yup, DeLeon is regarded as P4P one of the hardest punchers in this generation . DeLeon was indeed murderous but with what I saw last night was mind boggling Juan MA with his skill and brutal power this kid will go far what a total package.

Hey fellas,

Sorry that some of you got a little offended because I used the word "exposed" in the thread, But that's how i saw it when he was beaten so easily. Not everyone is as knowledgeable as some of the gents on this forum, and that includes the press, that's why i used the the word exposed because many people overrated this kid, reguardless of how limited Deleon was. I felt all along that this kid would get defeated by a technically sound fighter just as Darchinyan, Hamed and Mugabi were. They were all power punchers with their own awkwardness that seemed to work for them until they were all exposed by technically sound fighters, and last night was no exception.

There's good arguments on both sides of the De Leon issue. But whether he was "exposed" or not, after this fight he can still beat up on just about everyone in the division. Except, of course...... Juanma, the new star.
