He's leagues ahead of Bruno, and I think smoother than Lewis at a similar stage. The only question is the chin.

I would happily put a grand on him becoming world champ within 3 years.
I don't think you can ever predict how good or bad someone is going to be at this stage (before 15 fights.) There are question marks over his fitness, chin and heart because he hasn't had to show them just yet.

Angulo down in round 2. The guy isn't just shop worn, he's shot.

Yeah incredible that a guy at just 32 can look so worn.

Agree mate, Vassell was gone, Richie Davies did a perfect job in that fight.

There were opportunities for an overly enthusiastic ref to pull out Vassell in the very start phases i.e. round 1, the fact that Richie Davies let it carry on gave us a great fight and proves that refs are jumping in too soon e.g. in the first fight tonight.

Win or lose Angulo needs to retire. He's going to take a lot of punishment in every subsequent fight.

Angulo gave it a go in the final 2 rounds when De la Rosa was cream crackered. Clear win for De La Rosa. Well done kid.

Why is there always at least 1 fight like this on a Mayweather undercard? It's hard enough to stay awake without sitting through this snoozefest :zzz:

Sorry but...this sport needs a clean out of corrupt or clueless judges.

Wasn't Justin Beiber supposed to do the anthem? Or has Beiber gone all Kellie Maloney?
