Ivan Calderon vs Giovanni Segura - II

[Violent Demise]

Finally watched the fight. Reminded me of Margarito vs. Cotto. First time seein Segura, he certainly looked a whole lot bigger, and was able to walk thru Calderon's punches. Calderon has always been a feather fisted little guy. Kind of was expecting to see more out of Segura technically, its neat he can switch between southpaw and orthodox, and he certainly has a punch.

Segura WAS a whole lot bigger. A few inches and a few pounds at that weight makes a lot of difference. All in all, however, I was totally disappointed in Calderon's effort. He fought a HELL of a lot better in their first fight. At least it seemed somewhat competitive while it lasted. This time it was one-sided from the "get-go". I don't know if I'd watch any more of Calderon's fights. He should probably just retire.

Calderon didn't go to Mexico to fight. He went there to collect his last big pay check. Soon as it got tough he quit.

I hate to say it....... but it's hard to disagree with you after watching that fight.

I gave Calderon a lot of credit for not only taking the rematch right away. But taking it in Mexico. Fool got heart. But after the fight it was obvious he only agreed to fight in Mexico cuz it would get him the biggest check. I wouldn't have a problem if Calderon went down and just couldn't get up. He got his ass kicked by a younger, stronger fighter. It happens. But that wasn't the case here. Calderon actually went to the ropes to look for a place to take a knee. Disappointing.
