Carlos Cervantes Acum 7 Zile

A huevo viva México el boxeo debería considerarce deporte nacional no el fútbol

Corey Preciado Acum 8 Zile

He could beat tank at 130 or anyone at 130 or 126

TheCLB Acum 8 Zile

not to take anything away from Valdez, but Berchelt had to drop far too much weight to get to 130. That saps so much out of a fighter. They lose speed, power, durability... he was sapped.

Iago Torres Acum 6 Zile

And lets not forget that he had Covid infection prior to the fight

Birchelt face was there to be punch styles make fights, Oscar Valdez style was much better than Birchelt, Shakur Stevenson will be in a interesting fight

Salió mañoso el tal Oscar correlon y amarrando cuando estaba en peligro su golpe fue de suerte que. no mame

Dave Seps Acum 8 Zile

No diga pendejadas Valdez le metio una chinga porque Berchelt no tenia otro plan mas que presionar y noquear lo que no le funsiono y al contrario Valdez lo sorprendio con boxeo y golpes mas precisos.

joe papi Acum 8 Zile

Reminded me of Sergio Maravillas KO, waited for the perfect over hand counterstrike. Fell forward Ko'd in the similar way. The Reynoso's are making a name for themselves outside of Canelo.

Andres Carbajal Acum 9 Zile

Cuando dijo berchelt ya valio verga. His coach told him no valio verga tu le tiras. His coach sent him to get knocked out. Berchelt said he was done right before the 10th round

If you were not born in Mexico, you are not Mexican.... FACTS!!!

Koat Zingo Acum 7 Zile

@Travel so was Europe, Middle East, and Asia...people settled and Europeans invaded what’s your point

Travel Acum 8 Zile

@Koat Zingo Do you know Mexico was EMPTY at one time..... people came there.

Travel Acum 8 Zile

@Koat Zingo Sir that defeats the purpose. In that case, ALL people born in Jamaica are NOT jamaicans. They are AFRICANs. So there are NO jamaicans. Smdh You are American if you are born in America, not Mexican. You have heritage but you are 100 percent American sir. 😂😂😂 You lose ... 😂. Sorry 🤷

Koat Zingo Acum 8 Zile

@Travel yes it does, Mexican is both a nationality and an ethnic indigenous identity like Cherokee or Navajo...u don’t lose your your Mexican indigenous identity or race if your born somewhere else...don’t matter if your born in China, the Moon, or Pakistán a Mexican never sheds his identity...sorry bud

@Koat Zingono it doesn't, sorry bud

Brilliant win seems like a great chap

P4P HIGHLIGHTS Acum 9 Zile

In like the 7th round or some other round when Berchelt went to his corner he said “ya valió verga” he already knew he wasn’t going to win then he got knocked tf out😂

Expect the unexpected ..team Valdez 🥊

Pseudo-pro Air-cowbeller Acum 9 Zile

A lot of people in that building failed Berchelt. That KO was brutal but the beating leading up to it was grotesque. It never needed to go that far. I love boxing and want it to keep prospering but incidents like these disgust me. Seeing someone pummeled to the brink of death....you are mistaken if you think that’s what boxing is about.

Jorge Macias Jr Acum 9 Zile

Oscar was faster and was at a higher skill level, Miguel was slow, too stiff, stood up straight while coming in, he was bound to get caught!

The President of Mexican calling Berchult was the biggest diss of all!!!

Alex Torres Acum 9 Zile

Great fight! Thought for a moment that Berchelt was going to come back! But Valdez kept his focus! Both very humble guys and great champions but congrats to Oscar! 💪🏼💪🏼

Ricardo Fernandez Acum 9 Zile

Oscar Valdez... El Gallo Tapao' de los Reynosos "El Peso Influye Mucho". Volvemos al Tema de la Esquina y Sus Manejadores. Los Entrenadores del Alacran... Debieron Subirlo a 135 o 140 y no Medirlo a un Gran Peleador y Pegador de las 130 como lo es Oscar Valdez. Si Teofimo hubiera peleado contra Lomachenco en las 130... la pelea hubiera sido mucho más cerrada. Trataron de Evitar a Lomachenko; Teofimo y Gervonta Davis y Oscar los Sorprendió, y Ahora es Oscar el que Tendrá la Oportunidad de Realizar Grandes Peleas, por Mucho Dinero Contra: Lomachenko; Teofimo y Gervontas. Los Reynoso no lo estaban poniendo a golpear tan duro... precisamente para que se confiaran sus rivales. Oscar mostró tener la determinación; plan de pelea y pegada, ante un oponente que lo superaba en 20 lbs... que ahora las apuestas contra Lomachenko; Teofimo y Gervontas, serán muy muy distintas a lo que parecía. En los 60tas había un dicho que Decía: " Tengo un Gallo Tapao' ".

Walter Urbina Acum 9 Zile

In the corner after the 9th Berchelt said “Ya vali verga” which means I’m fucked, the corner should have stopped it then cause he had given up on himself already.

Miguel Silva Acum 9 Zile

Estoy de acuerdo pero como todo Guerrero Mexicano mejor morir en la raya que salir rajado. No hay otra manera. Que gacho. Hojala este bien el compa. Bendiciones y felizidades De un Mexicano a Otro. Animo raza!

Ernesto Saldivar Acum 9 Zile

simon el sabia que ya estaba perdido...pero igual se la rifo hasta el final... ''ya valio verga'' eso fue lo que dijo.

Such a well spoken young man. I’m a fan, so inspired.

Que se olvide de quien dudo o no dudo de él, no tendrá a todos contentos ya ve canelo y eddy, el mejor entrenador y el mejor peleador y cuantos haters tienen, me sorprende que no veo haters diciendo que canelo compro a los jueces y todas esas jaladas

Wow, this is how you make a start of a legend! congrats Valdez!

LakeAmaze Acum 9 Zile

That knockout was so dirty😳

sfdko Acum 9 Zile

AMLO fucks up again

aceoneleven Acum 9 Zile

The referee should be suspended. There was absolutely NO reason for the second half of the last round. Berchelt was done. Helpless. No way he could defend himself. Ref allowing it to continue was pathetic. Berchelt's corner also was shameful for not tossing in the towel and protecting the man.

cholhwa Acum 9 Zile

Congratulations to Oscar Valdez on winning WBC Junior Lightweight world title. You are a great champion.

Efrain F Acum 9 Zile

Absolutely a great performance by Valdez! But Eddie Reynoso deserves a good amount of credit as well, future HOF coach no doubt

Lil Toxic Foo Acum 9 Zile

ESPN acting like they didn’t doubt him. I think Bernie was the only one who had Valdez winning.

oscar uvalle Acum 9 Zile

Funny how the announcers keep saying his idols and the Mexican president doubted him when everyone in the US media was also picking berchelt to win by knock out.

Raul Bernal Acum 9 Zile

But he doesn’t care about the US media opinion as much as his idols opinion. Chavez doubting him stings more than Max kellerman

JOSE Rodriguez Acum 9 Zile

What about now haters what do you have to say about valdez

Janie Gutierrez Acum 9 Zile

LR266 Acum 9 Zile

What a win and knockout for Oscar, His star power just shot up. Hope he follows this up with another big fight with either Stevenson or the winner of Herring vs Frampton.

Maori Chileancho Acum 9 Zile

Everything that F KING ANDRES MANUEL LÓPEZ OBRADOR TOUCHES. is instantly f cked up ! 🤷🏻‍♂️ sorry for Berchelt!.

Dan R Acum 9 Zile

Valdez looked tough! Even his voice, sounding like a charlo brother lol.

Roger Williams Acum 9 Zile

The president of a country is dead wrong for PUBLICLY supporting one countryman over another.

Luis Solorio Acum 9 Zile

I just found the video. He just told them he needs to knock out your opponent like we are knocking out corruption. Like I said earlier he's not a boxing fan and clearly didn't know who he was fighting. I bet he didn't even know who el alacran belcher Was. He would likely have said the same thing too Oscar Valdez.

Luis Solorio Acum 9 Zile

He did not do that. He is pacifist and boxing is not his sport. I have not seen the interview but i bet he wished both fighters luck. I am going to find the interview. Amlo is humble and smart. He wouldnt do a mistake like that.

Rogier Navarz Acum 9 Zile

Genesis Servania from Philippines did better than this last 3 opponents of Valdez

El Profanador De Culos Acum 9 Zile

Valdez has improved A LOT since he joined the Reynoso's team, this is not the same Valdez that fought Servania

Rogier Navarz Acum 9 Zile

@edDbalaM Maybe but Valdez throws everything his got in that fight and throws all his strengths in his punches poured it all on Genesis. Servania took it well. He is just a tough chin to deal.

edDbalaM Acum 9 Zile

because valdez has improved too much with his new trainer and is not the same when he fight against servania !!

Emmanuel Granados Acum 9 Zile

Berchelt needs a new team or his current team needs to adapt to new strategies. However, props to Valdez he did a great job countering Berchelt throughout the fight. I think that Berchelt should start more on his footwork, defense, and developing his jab a lot more. I hope he recovers soon.

Driven Latino Acum 9 Zile

There is a video on a Spanish boxing channel that Chávez told him on his face that his defense was Trash 🗑! And he didn’t do nothing to change!

Anthoni Styvens Acum 9 Zile

So we're not going to talk about that BS decision with Broner?

V. N. Acum 9 Zile

Alex Knight Acum 9 Zile

Mark Managa Acum 9 Zile

Berchelt was so slow and underestimated valdez. You can't do that to valdez. He has power in his counter punching. Congrats valdez😊

Themilio xperience Acum 9 Zile

After this TKO Berchelt needs new trainers. He was completely out classed and out boxed. That said great victory by Valdez! Trained excellently . Canelo’s trainer proved his greatness here.

Roger Williams Acum 9 Zile

So...He needs trainers after a specific loss? That speaks to the type of person YOU are. One who makes excuses. How about the fighter make adjustments during the fight. How about the fighter going back to the drawing board and figuring out what HE needs to do and run it back? Never crossed your mind, did it?
