Luckily for Linares Rocky Juarez isn't a very active fighter.
Juarez has one chance at winning.. that is a straight jab followed by a short upper cut that's his best punch.
If Linares who hasn't looked good in his past two fights... stays on the outside he wins pretty easily.
One thing to note which seems odd to me.. but Linares already has another fight set for Oct 24th in Tokyo same place he was floored in 1 round, are they simply looking Juarez as a "fake belt" so Linares can get a title rematch in Tokyo?

End of round 4. I gave the 1st 3 rounds to Linares, but gave Juarez round 4. He needs more rounds like that if he's going to win. Hit the body and slow Linares down, stay away from the uppercut too...lol.. Linares is breathing heavy a little at the rest.
Funny, I read last week Litzau is pissed Juarez is getting the good fights whilst Litzau is sitting on his couch.
