I don't think Broner had an issue with De Leon's power because dude never really landed cleanly enough although he's heavy handed and threw a good amount. I think it was De Leon's southpaw herky jerky odd angle style. He attacked from all types of angles with power shots and he never really allowed Broner to get too aggressive or take the fight away. He also showed sound defense for the most part when Broner was attacking.

Demarco has a chance but he really doesn't have the same ring attitude as De Leon and his aggressive approach is a lot more basic than Ponce's. You know how Demarco is going to come forward (jab,jab, left or hook) whereas with De Leon you don't know. I think that's also why you hardly ever see De Leon get blown out. His style keeps fighters honest and I think that's why Broner didn't look good in there with him.
I agree with everything you said, but after being to three DeMarco fights I always leave with the feeling this guy is really f'n good and no one views him as such. I thought his hyper aggressive style would allow for Molina to put him out , then he does the same quickly to Molina....

I am curious to see how a constant pressure attack will go for DeMarco against Broner, if Broner wins though he is legit, he would have moved up in weight and beaten the best guy in the division.

Arum Likes Donaire-Mares, But No Golden Co-Promotion

By Luis Sandoval

After Abner Mares defeated Anselmo Moreno he made it clear that the next fight he wanted was against Nonito Donaire in a showdown of the two best Super Bantamweights in the world. A fight between them would be tough to make however due to the fact that both fighter’s promoters, Top Rank and Golden Boy, have had a long standing feud and have refused to work with each other.

It seemed like there was hope when CEO of Golden Boy Richard Schaefer said he’d be willing to talk and work out a deal with Top Rank in order to get the fight made.

BoxingScene spoke to Bob Arum today and was asked if a fight between Mares and Donaire was a fight he’d be willing to make after hearing Schaefer say he would be willing to work out a deal.

“Well one of the things is that Donaire has a fight against [Jorge] Arce so let’s see what happens in that fight. Afterwards we can talk but the WBC informed us that Mares has a mandatory. So you know, I’m sure that fight will happen when it’ll happen” said Arum to BoxingScene.com.

While he is open to a Mares-Donaire fight taking place, Arum made it very clear he has absolutely no interest in working with Golden Boy in the future for any other co-promotions."

“We have no interest in working with Golden Boy. However we will offer them a sum of money for the services of Mares, put them up as a co-promoter but we have no interest doing a regular co-promotion with them” revealed Arum to BoxingScene.

It looks as though the bad blood between both promotional companies still exists which makes any other possible fights between Top Rank and Golden Boy fighters not likely to happen.

Well let the fukkery begin.

@SuikodenII @patscorpio @HARLEM AL @TheLukieBaby You guys know anything about Zachary Ochoa, 25yr old light welter from NY? If you're going to watch the fight in AC on Saturday, he's one of the early fights (like 6pm). Only his 3rd fight as a pro, but he's my friend's cousin...just curious.

Not yet, I hope he is on a GBP card on the west coast, I love watching the undercard guys, swing bouts , etc. I will keep his name in mind and circle it if I see him on a card.



BTW tonight I am going to be at James Page return bout to boxing in Sacramento. Pretty hyped then coming home to watch recaps of the fights.

Talking about what the fighters are going to do post fight is more interesting than watching Froch murder this man.
