    I really like this fight. I haven't seen much of Yordan; I've only seen the fight where it looked like he was set to outbox Robert Guererro before Guerrero quit. We can all agree Yordan looked nice in that fight. So nice in fact that Guerrero hasn't signed up to fight him again. And I think I'd favor Guerrero over Caballero. I'm really undecided at least at this point.

    Yordan did look good for that whole round and a half. No where near enough for me to think he can even be competitive with Caballero. I mean except for Guerrero, the only familiar name on his resume is former Rey Bautista victim Antonio Meza. Who he beat by MD. Molitor I remember had a similar soft resume before he faced Caballero

    I hear ya. This fight doesn't seem like the best match-up for Yordan on paper other than the fact that he is ten years younger than Caballero. You'd think his people would build his resume up before putting him in with someone like Caballero. Truthfully, Molitor had a better resume than Yordan going into his fight with Caballero. I'm sure Caballero is thinking he'll walk through Yordan and get in a more lucrative fight with Gamboa. Surely, Yordan's people know that. Why didn't they put him in with a Litzauesque opponent first or even Molitor? It doesn't make much sense to me. I only root for him because I feel like he was about to have a career-defining win and Guerrero quit.

    I'm here too, I would really like to see Caballero take this and fight my boy Jhonny after.

    Do you think Gonzalez' chin would hold up in that fight? It'd be good while it lasted, but I'd favor Caballero by TKO.

    That's some socialist crazy talk right there.

    caballero should overwhelm yordan. it's amazing to me that just because yordan looked pretty impressive for a whole round and a half against guerrero, that they would think this guy is a great, great fighter. this yordan cat is undefeated because he's fought nothing but thai and filipino bums. i'm sure in a rematch, guerrero would KO this guy if only yordan will move up to lightweight which is where guerrero is going to campaign now.

    I know for some reason Guerrero is the people's champion, but don't get it twisted, Guerrero punked out in the fight with Yordan. Really, he doesn't get enough heat for that.

    However, I don't know what Yordan's people were thinking putting him into a fight with Caballero. It seriously doesn't make any sense to me in terms of career trajectory. I guess they are thinking that if he could handle Guerrero, he can handle Caballero. Seems dumb.

    and how did yordan handle guerrero? in less than two rounds? and what has yordan done since? at least guerrero picked himself up and won the super featherweight title from that african dude. (forgot his name). guerrero may have "punked out" but he knew with that bad cut, he would probably have lost by TKO and he made his difficult decision knowing if he lost that fight he wouldn't be able to secure a higher paying fight to pay for his wife's medical expenses!
