Montiel looked pretty good last night

[:::PSL:::]

Maldonaldo wasn't on his level but Montiel did what he should have done, came out ready to go. Maldonado is the guy that Donaire stopped in 8 last time (didn't see that honestly).

Its not the greatest broadcast. For some reason it skips like a minute of the fight in the second round and like 30 seconds of it in the third. Picture's not great either. But its enough to see basically how he looked, pretty nasty finish.

Darchinyan put him away too. I think it was in the 6th round.

I enjoyed watching Montiel-Gorres. That was a very competitive match. Neither one of them could floor the other. I still think the Gorres point deduction was bullshit.

Mijares would box Montiel's ears off.

Looks like he's an Erik Morales fan with his feints and stance.

Right now, Montiel would knock out Arce.

I'm a fan of Arce but Arce is hardly someone who factors into the top of the division anymore. He may not be totally shot but he's on the road to it.

I didn't mean Arce was shot. Arce still has it.


I say Carlos can crack granite with that style of his.

Sucks that the fight is cut off.
I just saw the fight now and it's missing some really good work by Montiel.

I want to see Montiel-Mijares. It's time. I'll take Montiel.

Mijares by Decision.

His trunks were a bit less disturbing this time out

You mean the Daisy Dukes he wears...

I'll put Nonito Donaire in the mix... A fight involving any 2 of these 3 boxers will be great...
.

Montiel would crush Donaire

I consider Donaire as the more technical and has more power than Z Gorres and Gorres gave Montiel a close fight... Tho as what many said here that it seems Montiel improved a lot after the Gorres bout...

As I've said time and time again Montiel had just finished fighting at Bantam (moved up in weight) vs. Jhonny.
It was his 1st move up in weight, I would say that had a lot to do with it.
But no excuses he won the fight and that's what matters.

Yeah I've decided I'm going with Mijares too. Its a very even fight though. But as good as Montiel has looked in the past two fights, three fights ago against Melendez he had some sketchy moments. And he has frozen up a bit on the big stage before. I don't really think he will again in a Mijares fight but its at least something to think about.

Like VD said though, he definitely has become more aggressive lately.

Can't wait for Montiel/ Mijares, I really hope they get this done.

Put me down for Montiel.

But its a great fight either way!!!

[OumaFan]

If there were boxing gods..

Vazquez/Marquez 4 (sometimes I wonder if they should even fight again but if they're gonna do it I'll watch) with Montiel/Mijares as the co-feature.

I'm sure a lot of people wouldn't pay attention to it cause there would be nobody over 122 pounds but I don't really care.

[amat]

Every single picture I see of Marquez and Vazquez they are both holding up 4 fingers. Would have to think that's going to happen.

That got me thinking, has there ever been a trilogy where a 4th fight was wanted so much? I mean usually the 3rd fight provides ultimate closure but it's just not the case. If either guy fights again I hope it's against each other I would hate to see either lose against anyone else it just wouldn't be right. Like Pacquiao beating both Morales and Barrera after their trilogy it has never sat well with me.

Montiel's shots sounded extremely hard on the video
