    I thought this was a great fight and Karass definitely should have got the decision. Look forward to this though. Surely Jones has the ability to work Karass better the second time round.

    Jones will win this easy.

    Rewatched. I think Soto Karass beats him via tjko. Stamina,experience and mental make up....Jones is a true prospect and solid but strikes me a smaller Paul Williams Thats good and bad

    Hey...we are all just lucky they are rematching, awesome fight!!

    Mike Jones punched himself out the first fight in the first round I believe.
    Still though, Soto Karass weathered the storm and deserved the victory.

    Soto Karass might just have Jones number after what happened first time out.

    You all out of your mind, Mike Jones will learn from this lesson and win convincingly.

    I think ya may be really underrating what Soto-Karass was able to do. He dealt with Jones attack and switched on and off with punching thru Jones shots, roughed him up & walked him around, all while gazing thru some nasty cuts. Not as if he wasn't hit clean after 2nd also...and he coped well with it. Jones strikes me as being this forward pressure guy, bit wide and not to versed on the backfoot...raw at tempering his power and making adjustments. He's faced nothing close to the depth Soto-Karass has and it showed glaringly in spots. While those rounds will benefit him, every fighter needs a acid test like that, I doubt he'll just fall into form and come out some spit & polish new model going into immediate rematch. Karass also had 10 rounds to study.

    Mike shot his load round 2, he will learn from that trust me.

    Jones deserves a measure of credit for going for broke and pushing the stoppage in the 1st place. I really think the other way of looking at this should be Jones fought 8 rounds of about 1/4 of his stamina and karass couldnt stop him.

    Jones is a bit more polished and will measure is stamina better and will get the stoppage he would have gotten the 1st time around... Kudos for the rematch! How many times does a prospect squeak one out from a dangerous wiley pro and then runs out the back door to other things... This is good for boxing
