It would be better if this guy would be a heavyweight, cause we need more good heavyweights.

I wonder if he faced Danny Jacobs in the Am's before. I know Danny had a streak of 3 years without a loss or something like that. Maybe Asian may know.

Rodriguez never fought Jacobs in the amateurs. They're one of the only previousy ranked MWs that didn't face each other. Maybe one day in the pros.
