Comments Thread For: Abner Mares Eye Leo Santa Cruz Showdown in 2015

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Former three division world champion Abner Mares (27-1-1, 14KOs) is training for his upcoming fight, which is going to close out his 2014. In 2015, Mares would like to get fights with Leo Santa Cruz and Jhonny Gonzalez.

Mares returns on December 13th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas against an opponent to be determined. The fight takes place on the undercard to Amir Khan vs. Devon Alexander.

Mares, managed by Al Haymon, says the upcoming fight next is the last bout under his promotional contract with Golden Boy but he gets along very well with their company and plans to continue working with them but it does not appear clear if he's going to sign an agreement with them.

[knockoutkid]

basically what he is saying is he wants to fight one of the big guys but he's afraid he'll lose so he wants a long contract incase he does, with some soft opponents thrown in.

Walters would probably destroy him. He's better served going back down to 122 and fighting LSC.

I don't see this china chin getting past either LSC or Gonzalez.

mares vs LSC would be sick

[Ringlife]

Sounds good to me, I hope Mares fights both Gonzalez & LSC. I will be rooting for him in both of those fights, if both of those fights happen. I think he can beat LSC by decision Gonzalez on the other hand, Gonzalez might just have Mares number.

[nycsmooth]

he still has Jhonny on his mind, but Leo will beat him by late tko...

Mares/Donaire might end up like Juanma/Gamboa. It's stupid that the fight still hasn't happened.
