Deleon exposed!

[CutMeMick]

rene, no reply to my comment?

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.

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

LOL!!!

Ok, i get it, he wasn't very skilled, but he had power.Exposed Club fighter with power.

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.

yeah we all knew what Ponce was, it was just most thought he would be outboxed, not stopped early. I'm not sure how you can be exposed when you already lost to Caballero and Penalosa ().

But he can come back, he'll never be a P4P guy obviously but he can do some things.
