    Hometown advantage versus hometown advantage.

    The deciding factor in this fight (should it come off): Location, Location, Location.

    I can't see Rocky winning anywhere other than Houston with a corrupt official in the ring with him. People hate John but he beat Marquez legitimately and Juarez got nearly killed. John is a better fighter, imo.

    Yep. It's all but guranteed to go the distance have some "wacky" scorecards.

    You're less likely to be on the wrong end of one of those cards fighting at home.

    Another thing that's a lock is i won't watch it.

    What do you think the Vegas over/under will be on point deductions?

    Will it just be something like 2-3 against for the guy fighting on the road, or will it depend how many are needed to secure the decision?

    It was only mentioned last night but Ronnie Shields told me this morning that through Sampson Lekowitch sp John accepted the fight last night after Rocky-Barrios but after John snubbed them last time they will most likely pursue Nicky Cook.

    Whatever. Marquez fans are jokes. I have heard fools claim Marquez beat Pacman in the first fight:lol::lol:What a joke. I saw the fight. Marquez and his handlers are morons. He went over to Indonesia and lost.

    Of course they are after Cook. He has no chin. Though I wonder what took them so long. The IBF belt is being held hostage by boxing´s version of the craptastic four (Fana/Klassen/Baloyi/St- Clair) for over three years now.

    I´m not so sure John is still a champion when he leaves Japan anyway.

    John is lucky he and his team fucked Asiku over. He wouldve beat his ass and taken his title.

    John is exactly the type of fighter Juarez can't beat. At least, the odds are he can't.

    Probably not in legitimate fashion. However you toss in some "kind" judges and a ref and he can win a disputed decision.

    L. Cole: I gave you your instructions in the dressing room, any questions?

    C. John: !"$§%&!§$("; §$/!"%&$/(="$M;§/$()"§/$

    L. Cole: No questions in Indonesian. ONE POINT, ONE POINT, ONE POINT.

    :lol:

    Cole telling Marquez when he was cut: "you're ahead on the cards"....Jesus. :fightme: That still gets me pissed and I have no idea why he's still refereeing.

    On John-Juarez....Rocky should stay very, very far away from that fight.

    Nicky Cook, Baloyi at 130 lbs....those are better title options.

    Even Luevano would be better (though still very problematic).

    Rocky has to be the most frustrating fighter to watch in history. I was literally SCREAMING at the TV screen. He could have put Barrios down as early as the 8th/9th round.

    Peace.
