Holy Crap!!! This guy Migraña is from my hometown and he’s a BEAST. I think Kingry might lose this one as well. i usually root for Ryan but this guy is from my side of the hood. Vamos Parral.
I remenber paying $500 to see De La Hoya vs Quartey in Vegas. Inflation is a mofo. BTW, Duarte is actually pretty good.
Now, that was a hell of a fight. it was worth the whole 29.99.
I saw Bobby Chacon vs Rafael ‘Bazooka’ Limon IV for $15.
Damn I’m old.
I remember when bazooka limon pulled someone’s shorts down when fighting. hahahaha
Classic move.
USS, paid 2000 for Mayweather vs. De la Hoya, still wasn’t even ringside. I bet those seats are 5000 now. Helluva fight though.
Killa, I had a decent seat with an ok view, if I remember correctly ringside for that fight was 1,200. Yes of course any event with the Mayweather/De La Hoya name tag was always going to be way more expensive.
Looking forward to Garcia/Duarte. Garcia better stay focus and tuck his chin from round 1 through round 12 (if it requires 12 rounds).
I agree, Kingry’s chin will not serve him well if Duarte catches him on the button. Kingry’s habit of leaving his head stationery is an issue with both his defense and offense. Duarte could easily end the fight at anytime setting up his lead right hand leading off his long jabs. Kingry has the hand speed to keep Duarte out on the end of his punches, but that chin does worry me. Duarte TKO.
If kingry has not recovered mentally from your loss against tank Davis Duarte might upset this fight
Sounds like kingry ain’t really ready for this cat or when he fought the tank lots of mental issues from to much tick tocin and not enough boxing
im sure they meant superlightweight 140lb division byt the way
Kingry has only proven contender level and his ringside goes for 500… Promoters don’t have to justify pricing for social media star contenders so long as the reality star vs MMA fights exist as they can point to their product being more legit. I’ll Skip and attend title levels fights for this price…
Duarte gets a bit wild at times and leaves himself wide open for counters.
Garcia has talent but lacks the mental discipline to stick to a game plan.
I’d say this is 60/40 fight in Garcia favor, but could easily go the other way if Garcia allows Duarte to close the distance.
This fight is interesting in itself match-up-wise. This is truly a 50/50 fight.
The behind the sense drama makes it interesting. Oscar and B.Hop not only left Ryan hanging post-Tank loss but Oscar sued him as well. I’m sure Ryan is not feeling as close to Oscar and has something to prove to himself as Oscar is now seemingly set to put Ryan in tougher fights before his contract ends. Ryan also has a new trainer in Derrick James and in theory is learning to become more fundamentally sound. I can’t wait to see this fight. I have become a bigger Ryan fan post-Tank loss. He seems more centered.
He better become more fundamentally sound or he will lose to every top ten fighter at 140, well except rolly who is just terrible.
But any decent fighter with his size advantage should have kept Tank far on the outside with that reach and speed.
Both DLH and Hopkins fought that style in many fights so it had to be part of the game plan.
For Garcia to say he got bored because Tank wasn’t engaging proves he is either very immature or just stupid, or Goosen simply gave him poor instructions or had a terrible strategy.
As for Tank, I hope he gets a nutritionist and stays at 135 as they are just far too big at 140 for him.
This is a must win fight for queenry! If he loses he’s done and oscar dela pinga will dump him faster than he dumped his fishnet outfit onced the media/fans found out about his lil’ dirty secret! He is fighting no punk on this one so, he better be ready to impress or else he will have to settle with fighting jake paul, logan paul or Ksi!
Nobody updates us on Kingry’s Facebook follower numbers anymore! Maybe the kiddies are getting a bit tired of his antics…LIKE THE REST OF US!
