After the Penalosa fight, I actually had the words "pound for pound" flash through my mind.
He was deemed as a slick boxing talent on his way up, because he is so technically solid in his approach.
Then at the championship level, he showed unbelievable power.
Against Penalosa, he showed he can also be a volume puncher, while keeping that technical advantage. Regardless of how old an opponent is, you still have to have the conditioning and will to throw a zillion punches like he did. The deadly accuracy when throwing all of those against a guy who had his gloves up constantly was very impressive to me too.
I can't wait to see how this guy's career turns out.
