LAS VEGAS, NV - Deandre "THE BULL" Latimore, fresh off his ESPN2 televised devastating knockout of Sechew Powell on June 11th, has moved to #6 in the IBF junior middleweight rankings. [details]

John Duddy, Ronald Hearns, Deandre Latimore...at least Verno has some options. But, how about giving a rematch to the man you robbed of the title? As bad or boring some of you think Spinks is, he's still head and heels above Duddy, Hearns, and Latimore.

After stopping the number one contender to fight Verno Phillips, I think Latimore should be on the short list of guys who should be challenging Phillips for his belt. It's much more likely that Phillips will fight Duddy though simply because thats the biggest money to be made, especially if they do it in New York.

If Latimore has that consistantcy, then i can see him becoming a champion. He reminds me of a bigger version of Cory Spinks but with punching power. He is very skilled, a slicksouthpaw, has good outside ability and can **** on the inside as well. He is definitely someone that you want to look out for.

Cory Spinks was not as aggressive as "The Bull".

I like what I saw that fight against powell! He needs more defensive but he could be trouble for the top guys in the division soon.
