Gesta was so tough,..😲 a litte bit slow for linares but he hits heavy than linares,.Both boxer was Great👍👍Nice Fight

[@ismaelmara6920]

Gesta wid a lil bit more speed n more angles beats Linares but Anyways it was a tight fight.

[@fanewrodas6778]

Tingin lamang dapat si Gesta,solid patama, tapos knockdown dno count maliwanag, na bias talagah!

[@brianb889]

Gesta fights well in spurts but he really gets gun shy. Gbp was high on this guy but don’t think he’s improving as much anymore

[@DPok-yg9zr]

Rd 12 1:57 i think it should hav been counted as a KD and linares should hav been counted. Clearly he was hit and lost his balance.. anyways, nice game..

[@kajunjunako7980]

Mahina si kabayan ...d niya alam kahit may pontos kapa basta d mo siya mapatulog d ka mananalo

Can Linares beat Garcia? What are your thoughts 💭 and if so than How?

[@26rey01rc93]

Actually Linares already 2 knockdown, but referee didn't admit he's bias, di panga siryoso si Gesta kayang-kaya nya si Linares favor lang yung mga judge kay Linares, kahit draw sana ok lang, next time i knockout muna kalaban mo Gesta magaling ka pero kailangan maging seryoso ka next, God bless you and Fredie Roach

[@junjunabapoabapo2616]

Hindi knock down yon ..kolang lang talaga sa bilis si gesta,sa lakas naman mas malakas pa sya Kai llenares..

[@exormason6323]

Tanga SA work rate at volume of punches higit Kalahati Ang kalamangan ni Linares KY gesta. Anu Ang basehan para mag draw Ang laban d nman accurate mga patama ni gesta kaya natalo sa laban. Panoorin mo ng maayus kung bakit nanalo SI linares

Entertaining ! Beautifull display of skill and heart from both guys . Linares is always an inspiration to watch boxing.

[@langchauvin1121]

Fighting Gesta is like a litmus test before fighting Pacquiao.

[@thedhive6512]

not even close. Gesta's hand and footspeed is nowhere near where it would need to be for that

[@arthurgadz646]

Linares is just the better fighter.. I mean gift wise and physicality Linares has the edge.. But im happy that Gesta was able to compete at this level.. To move to the next level, I think Gesta should develop his power and explosiveness to pose a threat to elite fighters..

[@jalalolama7863]

Magaling din tlga si hesta may speed sadyang pontos lang at timing nagkulang si hesta at mabilis ang kalaban maganda ang defensa malakas ang suntok kaya HND makaka pasok si kabayan ng basta basta Pero proud ako sa kabayan natin DHL may speed at power din nakulangan lang sa timing

[@panchotaqito]

Jorge Linares on my Top 5 Favorite Boxers. I told my brother he ws going to chin check Loma , My brother didn’t believe me, yes Linares took an L but he still connected and still going to fight loma Again and will Take that W. He is technically Nice, Fast 💨 , Strong puncher 💪🏽 , Nice Foot work I mean how can you Not be a fan. ! Its fucked up that Golden Boy doesnt give him more promotion because this Guy In my Opinion is a Star. I dont give a Shit about a PERFECT RECORD either. His Boxing Bouts Are Exciting and thats what matter to me as a Boxing Fan/Customer.But Team Linares Lets Go.

[@yoni5896]

Seriously. You don't see his fights as much as other golden boy fighters. He deserves the shine

[@brianb889]

OddyNuff goldenboy puts him in big fights all the time, they pay him well. I don’t believe they market him like Ryan or Virgil because he’s 34 and has lost a few times. Duh.

[@xioopgu]

Vasyl will demolish him again and again.

[@arnie2974]

[@joeltrazo3876]

GESTA IS TOO DEFENSIVE. HE MUST HAVE SOME AGGRESIVE MOV ES.

[@CesarMartinez-oc4xm]

Beterano talagang fighter itong si Linares, magaling na defensive fighting, hindi tuloy makapurong mabuti si Gesta. Medyo mabagal si Gesta sa laban na ito. Tactician si Linares jab jab sa kaliwa sundan ng straight right na mabilis. Bago mag react si Gesta niyakap na siya. Dapat bawasan ni Gesta yobg porma niya na binababa pa ang kamay astang karate mabilis kasi kamay ng kalaban. Pero gagaling pa itong kabayan natin.

[@darwinogues6759]

Wala naman binatbat kay Loma.

Mabilis lng kalaban pero kunti patama

[@AndrewBryanSapigaotarsonis]

I'll party crash right here as Jorge Linares was the clear favorite. But this is just outright biased commentating. I really think Gesta did more damage. You cannot expect Mercito to floor Jorge as he is the smaller fighter but why didn't Jorge floor Gesta? he could have. Answer: they aren't giving Gesta enough credit for his parrying ability.

Sus! Very clear, puro Hangin at wlang Power mga suntok nito. Puro yabang lang kapag natatamaan na siya. Malayo sumikat to. Walang power punch, parang nakikipaglaro lang at mag-aangas kapag dehado.

Gesta didn't bring enough. The commentators were correct when they said he's more like a sparring partner than trying to bring it and clearly win over the champ.
