Marvin Marvelous Sonsona - 19 Yrs Old WBO World Champion

[BlackHawk]

We have a great fight last night. Candidate fight of the year. Sonsona vs Lopez for the WBO title

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJEvg_fv6VcYouTube - 2009.9.4-Marvin Sonsona vs. Jose Lope(4-10)

What can you say about this kid. He has a long way to go.

[Pacdbest2]

I was already impressed with him when he KO the Thailander in his last fight. I said then that he fights like Nonito Jr.

But this Fight with a tough Lopez was an impressive one for a 19 year old. He has the Power , The poise, the chin, the stamina & the Cajones at this age. Once He settled with his right & matured weight, he'll be hard to beat.

I'll Pick Sonsona over Rafa & Vasquez once Sonsona matures to 122 /126 lbs.

Nonito Donaire vs Marvin Sonsona

no way 2 flip champs are fighting each other. if one is not a title holder that may be possible but if both are champs i dunno if they'll be facing each other coz if that's the case they'll be hurting their country's pride more than their own ego and flips are passionate about their country's pride.

anyway cheers for sonsona, our 5th world champ. maybe he should changed his moniker "marvelous' as hagler already owns it. why not "sonsona of a gunna?"

Marvin Sonsona definitey has better skills on his 14th pro fight in comparison to Pacquiao's at the same stage in his boxing career. He has a tremendous future, if things are handled properly.

Definitely!! These upcoming fighters from the philippines was the Product of Pacquiao's success. Boxing becomes the #1 sports for Pinoys all over the world. Young guns were all inspired with Pac success. Even my 6 year old son was into it.

For Sonsona, he's blessed with natural Punching Power. He's too long for anybody from Fly-superbantam. Once he's filled he'll probably will be fighting at 130-147 weight classes.

Once he improve he's conditioning by fighting at the comfortable weight class, he'll dominate. Right now I'm impressed. He just need to polish his defense and also use more of Jabs & Right hook.

Great performance by Sonsona. Lopez wasn't elite. But he was no push over. Beating him was great accomplishment. Especially this early in his career

[Galaxy]

Great win over a solid vet! Interested to see where he goes from here, 115 still has a lot of talent. There's the potential for some great match-ups to prove himself against

[killersheep]

Sonsona looks like he won't be able to make weight long. But man, he's got some serious power in the left. Lopez while not the best the division had to offer still was a serious opponent. I was impressed Sonsona was able to work through the adversity. I'd like to see a little more right hand, but for his age I was quite impressed.

[KananKrus]

"He surprised me that he hit so hard. Especially the power of his left hand. I didn't expect that". Jose Lopez.

Great win for marvin Sonsona, not only that he has the power but he also have the stamina to last the whole fight eventhough all of his fights lasted only 5 rounds.

He aslo shows he has the chin for not even being staggered when Lopez connected with some great shots.

although Lopez was IMO the weakest of the champs at 115, he was still a solid gritty fighter, who fought better than his age would let you think, it's a great solid win for Sonsona especially this early in his career, but i gotta disagree with the whole Sonsona/Donaire thing, IMO it's still way too early in his career for that, the last thing i'd want to see is a kid with this much talent to be ruined due to being moved along too quickly like Vargas was, but yea gonna be watchin this kid for sure

[Nameless]

He looks damn good and damn promising but I would wait a bit before coating him with sugar from head to toe; i remember a Boom Boom Bautista that was supposed to be the next big thing and 2 crucial things un-railed him on his way to the top of the mountain; a dubious chin and a very doubtful mental strength, I want to see these things tested more before seeing him as the next big thing but for the moment, I agree, the way he does, he looks good.
