Cheers dude. I'll take a look.

Looks pretty good, But he still seems to keep his left low sometimes. I hope they get rid of that all together eventually...

he has great hand speed, i hope this guy acn sort his defence out tho! he is a great talent but needs to fight some real opposition and not fighters coming in off the back of 1, 2 and 3 losses! hope he fulfils his potential!

Derrick Gainer pulled out of the fight because "I don't fight just for the money, and I need more than 3 1/2 weeks notice" I read it in boxing news. Frank Warren is looking for a late fight substitute, possibly a WBO latino champ. (forgot name).

Btw don't you think he jumps a little to high when hes skipping? Even I don't jump that high...

Oh wow, I didn't know that. I wonder who they will get now.

It does look like he has made some improvements to his overall technique, and I noticed he switched southpaw once when hitting the heavy bag, maybe he's working on switch hitting.

He has bad defense in his normal stance, If he tries to get ****y going southpaw he is gunna get his bell rung..

I agree, if he is actually working on switching he should take it step by step because it'll take a bit of time to get used to fighting out of a southpaw stance.

he definately looked better, this rubio guy has a good amateur training pedigree so we shall see how he does with khan in the pro's, wbo latino champ...atleast the guy aint comin off a loss could be an actual test for khan...anyone know where he is ranked?
