a week before the fight there were reports from agent scully that there were sightings in the philippines, the report said (using advance google earth version), it was from the southern part.
this report leaked thru the new episodes which will be shown in rpn 9. watch for it.

I agree...He was Overconfident and the fact that it was done in Cebu his hometown maybe he's also pressured to KO Concepcion and forget to protect himself and allowin El Torito to box him even while clinching. He waited the referee to broke them up while Torito massacred his side. Well, it was a lesson he never forgot for the next fight. I knew Banal is more superb in terms of boxing techniques comparing to Torito but he lack in stamina on that fight.

THere was nothing mysterious about it... AJ just absorbed body shots more than his body could take. His major mistake was allowing Concepcion to do damage to his midsection, especially on the clinches. AJ just held on to one hand in almost all instances that they were tied up and allowed El Torito's free hand to do tenderizing damage to the side of his belly. It was reminiscent of Pac-Morales II... Concepcion did almost exactly what Pac did to EM in that epic battle.

But I'm sure AJ will bounce back from this debacle. It's a good thing that this happened early in his career. It's a very good learning experience for him, however painful it might have been. I'll be looking forward to his comeback! AJ is still the best Filipino world title prospect in my opinion.

and where were you at that time?hehehehehe

I was in class... but I was able to watch the delayed telecast on studio 23. I heard from a reliable source that you guys immediately left the gym after the stunning loss. Is there truth to that?

its just the crisp body sh0ts that wore him d0wn.
crunchy.

some of us but me, ramrod, lyndon, aliesh and brownstone waited for 30mins before we left coz our family waiting for us.

your statement is wrong. concepcion did not win because he is as you say better than banal.there is no way that concepcion is better than banal in skills. if there was anything he did better than banal he was better in dirty fighting, headbutts,cheapshots to the body.
he only lost because there is failure in the part of their training and coaching.
Being a better boxer doesn't always guarantee you'll win against those who aren't better than you.

A Welcome LOSS if you ask me.

The reason is since someone called him a replica of ronaldinho... he intends to play soccer that to play his boxing training regime... instead of punching the mitts, he practice to dribble the soccerball like the way ronaldinho does... so he forgot that he is a boxer... just kidding!!!! anyway, the truth is concepcion plays dirty, he punches concepcion in the body everytime they clinched... as a result... aj's energy was gone....

I'm gonna make you an offer you cannot refuse.....

He should have given Concepcion a low blow just let him know that he didn't like the clinching style.

He would've gotten Torito's respect. Concepcion knew that Banal was a good boy.

And the winner by unanimous decision is ...............

If that body punches were illegal, the ref should have warned Concepcion. I should say that it is a "veteran move" ( gulang ) body punches and Banal don't know how to defend himself against it. They did not expect that Concepcion would last that long and become stronger as rounds goes by.

Legal or illegal, boxer should protect themselves at all time...
