I feel you breh.

I like both boxers, but picked Moreno to win that one. When he lost I was like :mjcry::snoop: Even my pops was pissed.

Made me respect Mares even more though, because he fought the right type of fight to win.

I heard Moreno had a pretty good scrap recently. I gotta hit that shyt up.


Same here...he was getting shytted on a lot round here despite his resume being nice af

I started defending him but then he was sent to the bushes N I never :cape: for Mares or brought him up again :heh:

Nope.



I don't equate any Afro-Latinos born and raised in another country with African-Americans:yeshrug:



Totally different cultures & upbringings....and a lot of them be racist against us AA's when they DO get here:manny:

In Florida you wouldn't be able to tell them apart.

Cats like Trinidad and Casamayor would be looked at as straight up black dudes down here, but then those be the type of dudes that will think I'm Spanish.

I see where you coming from tho. If a dude looks black, I'm gonna think he's black until told otherwise. I try not to get into all the cultural upbringing and shyt tho.

nikkas don't have to be all that accomplished in order to be a bad style match up for someone.

Leo Santa Cruz's resume was looking like Kimbo's when compared to Abner Mares record and he still soundly defeated Mares.

Sure resumes play their part in evaluating head to head matches, but it's not the only thing.

shyt the jobber LSC faced on may-pac gave him more trouble than mares did :mjlol:

It's different here in Cleveland bc it's real racist here. I keep forgetting we all from different places, so we have different experiences with different races.


Tito Trinidad would NOT be on my side of town and would be on the West Side with all the other Ricans. He wouldn't call himself black like none of the other ones here do....he would just say he was Puerto Rican:manny:

It's true though.

Me and @ChocolateGiddyUp use to defend dude a lot back in here. I used to bring up his resume a lot when the topic was about records. He ain't get that P4P love until it was too late and then he got thrown off the lists immediately after his first L

Mares was in his physical prime too, but it's usually harder to come back from a brutal KO than it is to bounce back from a decision loss where you hardly took any punishment.

Mares has actually CLEARLY beaten top level fighters in his division. He didn't win a bunch of close could go either way fights like Canelo did with Trout and Lara.

So :camby: with all that master boxer talk.

Mares got one of the best resumes in boxing. It's just that nikkas don't respect the smaller weight classes so they'll just dismiss people.

Mare's has also proven himself against all types of styles too.

He did better against Moreno (slick southpaw) than Canelo did with Lara (slick southpaw)
Canelo is a better fighter than when he fought Lara and he did outbox lara who is one of the better boxers in the world.

Where was this master Boxing against Trout, Lara, & Floyd?:lupe:



There's only 4 "master boxers" today....Floyd Mayweather Jr, Guillermo Rigondeaux, Vasyl Lomachenko, and Andre Ward.
He clearly beat 2 outta those three. Did Lara or trot even win on any of the judge's scorecards. Canelo is the best counterpuncher in boxing right now. He is a master boxer
