Boom's excuse why he lost to Ponce...

[Morrissey]

is pathetic.

Broken hands? Anyone?

I like Boom Boom but excuses like this is shitty. Just admit, he was not ready for a prime-time fight yet, and that is all. To say his hands were hurting even before the fight started. Utter BS!

You lost. That is because your opposition was better.

You win. That is because you were better.

[Only registered and activated users can see links] click this link it keeps happning over and over and over again...it's great

[Ramshall1]

His handlers are utter morons for putting him in with a puncher like that so soon. . . but these lame excuses need to stop. Reminds me of Clottey.

[Boom_Boom]

Broken hands?...more like a broken chin

hes just using an excuse to gather whatever pride and confidence he can get

[Vantage_West]

perfect technique though i love those jab crosses while the other guy is throwing a hook. it's russian roulette and only 2 more guys are left as long as you push as much as possible thats all you can hope for. and ponce got there first.

shame becuase boom boom was a good puncher but was not tested a really bad move to put him into this.


you never know he might actually have a good chin just got tapped really hard and practicly fell on to it

[jopez707]

I guess if his hands were broken, than maybe thats why he didnt keep his hands up?...lol..

[brooklyn1550]

Bullshit...he was in with a bigger, stronger, more powerful, tougher (better) fighter.

[Marnoff]

Whatever.

[PolishPummler]

Wow!

broken chin more like it

No he shouldnt have said shit period.

No he shouldnt have said shit period.

True. But he is a young punk, and we all know that young punks always have excuses.

[Stinky gloves]

Bullshit...he was in with a bigger, stronger, more powerful, tougher (better) fighter.

How much bigger exactly? The rest summe up however who was the man.

[Ramshall1]

Yes I expect him to say yes, my chin needs improvement...If this story is true about him making excuses...Filipinos will abandon his ass. We arent mexicans..

youre an idiot.
Lame excuses should not be accepted by any boxing fan.

[tays001]

Nah He's Just Young He Should Come Back Maybe Get Better Remmber Pac Was Ko'd Early On In His Career And He Came Back.

Not Saying Boom Boom Is On Par With Him But Give Him A Chance

[theunderdog]

you expected a better excuse from a 21 year old overhyped fighter who just got ktfo in the 1st round? hahahaha. i reckon he said that because he was still a little dazed from the punches he got in the match with ponce deleon. it's stupid as shit and only a young overhyped boxer like he is could come up with a lame ass excuse like that.

he should have just accepted it and moved on, he's only foolling himself. if he gets in the ring with a decent puncher again, he'd get ktfo again because he will think his hands cost him the match against de leon. stupid shit.

[GalangK]

He should just accept the facts and see that his defence was inadequate against De Leon who is not exactly a technical wizard himself.

Only through accepting one's flaws can one become a good and even great fighter. Manny's chin was questioned numerous times before he fought Barrera since he was ko'd by Megdoen SIngsurat and was badly hurt and even received the benefit of a long count against Nedal Hussein.

Boom should look at this as a lesson. We'll see soon enough if it makes him stronger or destroy's him. We sometimes forget that the man is only 21!

Just about any excuse would be better than the one he has.

[knockout]

Well Boom Boom still green and delveloping vs a guy already on hes prime.yet Boom Boom was willing to trade with him early big mistake.:patsch

[theunderdog]

Mexicans are still talking about the fire in MABs camp when Pac dismantled him...

They are still talking about JMM winning the fight when the judge already admitted he made a mistake and PAC should have won

When Boom Boom makes excuses...Flips are the first to slam him.

and filipinos didn't buy into the "manny bought the wrong pair of socks that's why he wasn't able to ko jmm" excuse? please

I just feel that his excuse was complete BS. Whether he is a Flip or Mexican, it does not matter anyway.

MAB's fire distraction was also BS. Ditto with Pac's hands versus JMM. Same with EM's past his prime slogan as he lost to PAc.

The point is, Boom was knocked out early by De Leon. If the fight went up to 12 rounds, and Boom was not able to even KD De Leon, and he lost via decision, his excuse might hold water. Atleast, there is a slight chance I believe him. BUt he was fuckin' knocked out, in the 1st round!!

not true!!!!!! the vaseline excuse tops my book!:lol:

Fuck do I need to remind you that a couple of the flip posters here said that Pac wore the wrong socks for a fight and got blisters? Or how about the excuse that he got head butted against Morrales? Or how about he didnt get his favorite gloves against Morrales?

For every fight in boxing there are excuses and justifications. Thats how the game goes, leave the nationality part out of it. :deal

[Morrissey]

It is pathetic. But did you expect him to say that he lost because he was chinless?

He might as well not make an excuse. He could have just said Ponce was the better man that night. That's it.

And his excuse is so lame. I mean, that excuse I thought was only created during that interview, when he was asked what happened to him in that fight. He said something like, he was surprised with the punch, and then, after a few seconds, he confessed his hands prior to the fight, was already hurting.
He was given a lot of time to answer that question, and so he was given a lot of time to give an excuse as well.:|


But I hope Boom will recover from this. He is still a good prospect, IMO. He just have to learn how to box his way to a victory, and not rely on his power.

[Bangis]

pure BS on Boombooms part.

[Morrissey]

BTW, all those who picked Margo to win versus Williams, and lost an avatar bet (like me:| ), I think we can now go back to our old ass-gay avatar.

Fuck Williams!

[myk]

Rey lost because of his weak chin and poor defense.

[CASH_718]

i feel bad for the poor guy. i think he was so nervous going into the fight, and when he got hit by that punch and just coldn't handle it. all that pressure just ruined him. nerves can kill.So can a left hand from Ponce.

i thought the bet was until tomorrow?

[Betty Swollocks]

it was obvious his hands were troubling him early in the fight, I still had him winning at the time De Leon landed that big shot. I doubt he's have landed it has Bautista been able to hold his hands up properly.

[Morrissey]

i thought the bet was until tomorrow?

It is now August 15 here..

ALmost a month after that fight, i guess.

[Rock0052]

I don't put any hate on Boom Boom, what was he going to say? "I almost crapped my pants because I realized if I didn't fight win, my town wasn't going to get their paved road because the guy in charge is a corrupt buttmunch?"

The dude was likely going to get KO'd anyways, but the kid was too nervous. Most young fighters in that situation will just say things because they're still in denial- I doubt the loss has truly even set in for him at this point yet.

He could have just said Ponce beat him to the punch, since he was indeed beaten to it.

My point is, that excuse was very childish, really. It was even made funnier because we know he was knocked out right in the 1st round!

Boom Boom, inspite of his suspect chin, which is the major concern you can possibly throw at him at this point IMO, hopefully recovers from this setback. He is young and will just keep learning.

[theunderdog]

if only penalosa could pass his defense and chin to boomboom as former retires.

not a broken hand. his excuse is a sprained hand.

poor guy. i guess we should just leave him alone. by making excuses like that, he saves what's left of him, the pride of a fighter. the guy is really devastated. i hope he bounces back.

When did he said that? because right afterb the fight he was very respectfull and honest. Don't remember exactly what he said but it was someting like: ''(maybe?) I am not ready for the big guys and ponce hit very hard)

maybe the int. is still on fightnews...

Yeah, lets give him a free pass this one time. He probably did have some pain in his hands, but not out of the usual most fighters in training endure. He probably wanted to lessen a bit his personal embarassment
and disappointment after that bad loss.

Before the fight, he was a hot prospect, he was undefeated and had a high KO%, he was the pride of his country, his province, his town, his village and his family. In a past interview, he said their family was dirt poor and the whole village, the whole town looked down on them. They were like invisible people to everybody. But when he learned how to fight, and he became famous, he saw how the whole town looked at their family now. Candijay, Bohol was now proud of Rey Bautista, and his family suddenly are important people now.

Now we call him china chinned, overrated, overhyped, shot, ruined, and a whiny punk. And their governor wont pave their roads in his village going to town because he lost in embarrasing fashion.

He was so sad about the loss, there were reports he was contemplating on retirement, at 21! He felt he lost face in front of all his countymen and townmates whom he fought so hard to achieve acceptance.

Lets cut the young man some slack, guys.

Mods, please close this thread please. Thank You.

[reed_man02]

i agree. those excuses are BS except the pac headbutt excuse. :nono that was clear headbutt man. watch it many times and you'll know what im talkin about. that cut is a result of a headbutt.

I don't think acb is dispusting that the butt actually happened. Rather, I think he is saying the butt didnt affect the outcome of the fight. I agree btw.;)

[PATSYS]

There should absolutely no need for Boom to make excuse.

He got hit with a hard good shot, most would have been koed.

He is still young and he will be back to fight another day.

The loss did not diminish Boom in my eyes.

[Circa]

the kid was really devastated...

hope he bounces back.

[theunderdog]

No excuses. He got TKOd because of a weak chin. It happened. Let's give credit to a stronger fighter, Daniel Ponce de Leon.

Bautista should retire.

leaving your fighter as soon as he gets beaten badly. you hyped him like crazy and you expected a lot from him because you thought he was the next pac. he loses now you want him to retire.

filipino boxers have great heart and fans like you are what's wrong with boxing. the boxers entertain and give it all in the ring, they give you a chance to be proud of your little country in net forums such as esb but after their careers are over or when they get ktfo, you wouldn't even piss on them if you saw them burning. fuck you.

He's been like that ever since he got here. Im glad more filipino posters are starting to post here that arent like that douchebag domngo or johnco. :yep

[Morrissey]

The kid can come back for sure. He seems to have a good attitude and a decent power in both of his hands. He just have to develop further his boxing skills and defense, considering that he might have really a questionable chin.

I know Chot Reyes would label me as another sprouting "genius" with this but what Boom and his team should do is to give him fights that would give him back his confidence, at the same time, help him to utilize his boxing skills and improve his defense.

Then after 2 fights, give him a quality foe who is not a heavy puncher so he will have more experience with contenders.

[Circa]

boomboom's eyes seems to be watery in that noontime show :D

[bulakenyo]

boomboom's eyes seems to be watery in that noontime show :D

Rey Bautista's still hurting. The Philippines winning all fights except his, and by brutal KO, is kinda like youre 6 young kids who are classmates, and everybody graduates elementary school, with honors, all except you. You go back to grade school next year and everybody goes to high school. Ouch.

I saw on TV, a news crew filming her mother watching the fight at home, and when he called her after the fight, he was saying sorry to his mom and he sounded like he was gonna cry.

He's still a kid. I wish he gets stronger and gets better next fight.

LETS GO BOOM-BOOM!

[acb]

I never said he wasnt butted. I said that its an excuse to say that if not for the but, he wins.

ahhaahahaah

not that floyds ever been knocked out, but after every shitty performance he says he fought with a sprained ear, broken wrists, swollen fingers, suffered from juicybutt (due to ellerbe's ass licking), 24332 broken ribs, carpel tunnel from making it rain at the clubs , etc etc..

Floyd has shit for hands.

Boom Boom didn't have time to break his hand. If it happened before the fight he should have pulled out.

He got knocked the fuck out.

[LeonardLeroy]

Just want to say that he made this statement in the same interview before pulling the sprained hand excuse:

"Bautista told UKG anchor Pinky Webb that his defeat was not a result of a mistake on his part--according to Bautista, de Leon was simply able to hit him first.

"Wala. Wala akong, hindi ako nagkamali, ma’am. Iyon talaga ang ano. Iyon talaga ang nangyari sa laban. Naunahan ako, natamaan ako. Iyon. Kung siya lang ang naunahan ko, ganoon din ang magyayari sa kanya. Siya lang ang nakauna sa akin. Ganoon lang naman ang boxing," said Bautista.

(None. There was no, I made no mistake, ma'am. That's just the way it is. That's the way the fight went. He got to me first, I got hit. That's it. If I got to him first, the same thing would happen to him. He just got to me first. That's the way boxing is.)"

His reasoning for the sprained has excuse was that maintaining it prevented him from arriving in tip top shape. It's not as bad as or as blatant as was stated in opening post. Yes, we know that a lack of defense and a questionable chin resulted in a first round KO loss, but let the boy save face. He knows he failed. He wasn't a cocky kid, he doesn't deserve to be ridiculed for his loss. Assholes.
