Another good fight this weekend. Bam Rodriguez looked impressive against Cuadras and his next test will be power punching brute Sor Rungvisai. Should be a great fight (hopefully) between the young fighter against the veteran. Not sure who wins. Part of me wants Sor Rungvisai to win so we can see a final clash between him and Gallo, but Bam looks to be the next star of the lower weight division. Super Flyweight is seriously a hot division.
Depends just how completely shot Sor Rungvisai is. I don't doubt Bam winning this but don't be surprised if SSR puts a lot damage to Bam.
Shameless shameless ducking. Ruined what was looking like an excellent card. I wonder if they'll strip Martinez's title, and who will be the replacement.
The fighter to watch on this card is Jesus 'Panterita" Martinez. I have been following him since he was 11- he is a 14 time national champion and a one time international champion. Training with Robert Garcia in Riverside, like Bam. I became aware of them at about the same time.
Rungvisai is a bit slower than before, and Bam is just brilliant. Unless Rungvisai wares Bam down, I think we're looking at another wide decision win. Gerry Penalosa would school Rungvisai.
Calling it early, but after Usyk, Loma, Crawford and Shakur, Rodriguez is the fifth best technician in the world.
Rungvisai looked like shit. Older , been thru the ringer and inactive. Otherwise rodriguez looked like Mayweather Jr vs Corrales If gonzalez can beat this kid it would seriously add to his legacy but apparently they're good friends
Finaly Robert Gonzáles has a good fighter in his stable. This kid is good and I can't wait to see him against chocolatito.
I don’t know how you can even assign ANY credit to Rodriguez in this fight. Rungvisai looks slow and weak as ripe shit. He’d struggle with a no-name journeyman at this point in his career. This is no different than beating the hell out of some punching bag from a division below.
I see your point. Rodriguez didnt beat a prime Rungvisai. But if the old man wasnt 100% he shouldnt have taken the fight. Dont blame Rodriguez for that. Not his fault. He did his job. The youngest current champion beat him in impressive fashion. Rodriguez needs to look impressive against El Gallito Estrada o Chocolatito to prove it wasnt a fluke. But even then if he wins youll have guys like you saying they were also past their prime .
