    Anyone think Yordan can take Caballero? He looked decent enough in the four minutes against Guerrero and Caballero is getting up there in age.

    It's true, Yordan looked surprisingly good against Guerrero.

    Caballero is overrated, I thought he was beaten clearly by the game little Mexican he fought a couple of years ago in Texas. He looks like a retarded stick insect too.

    Fuck it, I'm picking Yordan :lol:

    But Jesus, he looks tiny compared to Caballero. Much shorter, yet just as skinny.

    How the fuck did Caballero make 122.

    Round 1 Stick Insect. Did more work, landing some thudding body slaps.

    He slaps at least as much as Calzaghe incidentally, but somehow looks more retarded when he throws the slaps, they look like dead weight retard punches.

    Yordan looks a bit overwhelmed or outmatched, I hope he's just getting warmed up.

    He's landed a decent left hand in this round, not much else.

    I think Gamboa would beat the shit out of him too. And him Vs lopez would be a pick em fight, neither is anything special.

    Nice flush right hand by Caballero, good timing, Yordan down, gets up after a few seconds.

    Caballero is a bitch to fight. He´s like Guillermo Jones, he can throw 1000 punches without getting tired. Must be the Panamanian blood. :lol:

    Caballero clearly winning, but Yordan looks like he's getting into the fight a bit, and landed some decent shots in round 3.

    I hope the bodyshots haven't sapped him though.

    Caballero just landed 9 left hooks in a row :lol:

    Caballero looks better here than I've seen him before.

    He doesn't look good when you pressure him. His workrate drops and he becomes sloppy when faces with someone who gives him constant pressure, he needs to be the one applying the pressure.

    He reminds me of Vitali in the way that his punches look so fucking sloppy and awkward, yet they are strangely accurate with good timing.

    How long till Jim busts out the Bam Bam Bam, when Caballero throws to the body. The commentary is really getting worse and worse with each fight. You always get the feeling they aren´t there to promote a fight, but a fighter.

    I despise Kellerman, and love Larry.

    Kellerman is an annoying oik. His voice is annoying, and everything he says is annoying.

    I give this round to Yordan. Landed some nice clean punches actually, and blocked most of the stick insect's.

    He got dropped right at the end of round 2, from a nicely timed right hand as he rushed in, and got up after a few seconds.

    They can suck Caballero´s cock all they want, but he didn´t land much in that round, it was actually Yordan who landed the majority of the clean shots.
