i reallly like what ive seen of this kid...i think im his first fan lol...ever since i saw him get robbed at the Golden Gloves(against one of the most hyped up prospects-Hylon Williams)...then i was glad to see him avenge that with a victory over Williams in the US championships, and finally winning 2 of 3 vs his nemesis to get the spot for the olympics...im a little sad he's inexperienced....because with another year of seasoning he would get a medal IMO...I hope he pulls it off...
