Taylor-Lacy: All or nothing !!!

[JT Rock]

lol, I do consider Mendoza a powerful puncher, and a good opponent, would I say Epi is title contender level? no way,
top 10 at 168? not a chance
but you could sure find out in a hurry how your fighter would handle wild power punches.

You just basically agreed with what i said Mendoza is nowhere the elite level, he hasn't got world class punching power, and he is not a title contender. All i think this fight tells us is how far Jeff Lacy has fallen, that he now struggles against someone as limited as Mendoza.

Well you got 2 out of 3 right, Mendoza has power, your denying it doesn't make it less true. In fact, I think that you are the only one that thinks Mendoza doesn't have world class power.

All that means ICB is that Power alone dosent win fights thats why he couldnt stop anyone.. you need to be a bit of everything

Plus that stoppage against Dawson was highly questionable

I agree that power alone doesn't always win fights, but sometimes it does. I agree completely that Mendoza is not a top rated fighter, but I have a hard time imagining anyone at 168 or 175 for that matter that wouldn't get staggered by Mendoza's overhand right if they got caught clean.
