Julio vs Rivera update

[El Gamo]

CC for the news Pantera,I'm surprised,I thought wth Julio's power,he would blow Rivera out. Did he try anything new like jab,head movement etc?

[TyBuff]

How did Julio look? Was he boxing more or still just looking for that one shot? Like El Gamo asked any head movement, jab?

[Pantera]

Julio showed no defense and very limited offense. He was backing up most of the night and occasionally threw some combos and went on the offense. He was never real aggressive, but able to connect many times. At one point the ref stopped action and had the Doctor look at a bad cut above Rivera's left eye (I think it was the 8th round). Seemed like his power is not what is has been made out to be. He did stun Rivera a few times, but usually Rivera came back and was able to stun Julio a few seconds later.

Overall, it was an exciting, action filled fight, and Rivera actually looked good against Julio. That being said, what does that make Julio?

PS- I don't think this should take away from Quintana in his impressive win against Julio. He looked slick and boxed well regardless of what happened in this fight. I still think Quintana will find a way to beat Cotto.

He looked like an overrated fighter who's been exposed.

[El Gamo]

Hmmmmm,sounds dissappointing and it's the case the Julio was ridiculously over rated or or or Zab did really well in his win over Rivera,in which case I give kudos to Judah. I really want to see this fight! Was this really the same Cosme Rivera? What the heck is up with Julio,isn't Mcgirt doing his job!

Nothing is wrong with Julio. He's just not that good. It's that simple. He was overly hyped and made out to be the next big thing. And it didn't happen. Happens all the time in boxing.

I see what you are saying bro but still,one thing he did know how to do and do well was to bang and after seeing Rivera being blown away by a smaller Judah,I would have thought the reasonably bigger and probably harder hitting Julio would have dealt with Rivera well too! It seems like he has alot of work to do! Hey Bilbo,where you at my man? You see the fight?

On a side note,anyone here booking Suarez-Cintron? It's on at Maxboxing,I would order it as I think it'll be one of the fights of the year but I'm not sure if it's safe and I didn't see an option for peeps from Britan.

Yeah I kind of taught he was wicked puncher too untill you look at the people he knocked out. Pretty much fighters he should of been knocking out.

[OumaFan]

That's surprising, I didn't think Julio was that good but he should have handled Rivera.

There's really not much he can do, find a lesser quality of opposition? That would be some shitty opposition.

I don't think McGirt worked Julio's corner this fight

[CutMeMick]

Dunno
This should have been a fairly easy fight for him, if he had trouble with Rivera then maybe it's time for team Julio to slow it down a bit and give him time to develop....

And Zab destroyed that "bum" in 3 rounds.

But I think Margarito should fight Rivera now. Maybe he'll do it in 2.

Tony would do it in 1.

Rivera was a bum. How slow do you want them to go?

I dunno maybe have him fight against a guy making his debut








Yeah!! What I think is even more funny is that I have yet to see a Dan Rafael article somehoe trying to defend or save his Love Child from the crtics... But I mean how can he ? ? ? ?

1 round or 1 second

Julio looked really bad, lost the fight in my opinion, and to a journeyman fighter at best.

Can't believe I thought this kid would join the world's elite, now he looks more likely to go the same route as Audrey Harrison.

I can't believe you did either. Sc for being so far off the mark
