Antonio DeMarco-Jorge Linares rematch one step from being set - ESPN

if Linares is a bit more defensive he should win clearly

I like the fact that this is happening, other than that I am gonna pick Linares based on the fact that he should learn from last time.

Awesome rematch between two very solid fighters! I'm going with Demarco in repeat. Think he can start faster and still punch just as sharp.

I hope Linares wins this time, he was a talented fighter.

Denarco got lucky last time but linares will handle him easily this time..

Easy fight for linares..

the win this time.

This thread was posted before Linares lost to Thompson this past Saturday.There's a good chance DeMarco vs Linares doesn't get made now, but if it still does, it doesn't look good for Linares, I believe DeMarco would clown him again.

Demarco never came anywhere near "clowning" him the first time around, it was a great fight and I think the cuts really took Linares out of his element towards the end. I do think he'd be crazy to take the rematch now if it were somehow still on the table, and the fact that he was cut open and hurt so quickly again really look bad for him at the moment. The only plus is that the ref waved it off so quickly he didn't take any real punishment, but who knows how he responds mentally. It looked to me like he was a bit gunshy and worried about being cut before it even happened, not good.

I loved the first fight. Can't see the rematch happening anytime soon after last saturday. Hopefully De Marco lands himself a big fight in the meantime.

agreed, Linares needs to let his cuts heal properly and then see if it's gonna be an ongoing problem from here on out, if it doesn't turn out to be a major issue then the rematch would be a real possibility but at this point right now I don't see it happening, and agree that DeMarco should be getting a high profile fight given his last couple of fights and his come from behind against Linares, wouldn't mind seeing him against Guerrero or Rios

Isn't Gamboa the #1 contender? Don't know how that happens...

Lundy or Molina are his best options imo, he'll probably fight Sanabria Jr

Wouldn't mind seeing him face Vasquez

Good article on this guys view of Linares, I have only seen Linares fight once but found this a very entertaining read.

I get the feeling that Linares will be lucky to win another title and if he does it will be a short reign. Only a young guy too.

Linares vs Mitchell anyone?

The Lundy vs Demarco would be fun stuff. Off the top Lundys handspeed could give him early probs but Demarco has tremendous poise and is a very good finisher. It was funny to read about Lundy talking about Demarcos "mistakes" when its Lundy who has a hard time staying off the canvas and is getting stunned in quite a few fights.
