His dedication alone to training has made me a fan of his, how many of us who follow boxing actually get in the ring, gym and spar/box like he does? And the fact that he doesn't have to do it make me respect him. he has a lot of eyes on him but how many real boxers start off fighting tough oppositions? Like 5% of boxers of today....Who were the real boxers fighting in their first 3 pro fights?

"Let see him do this against a real boxer"; is kind of a silly argument considering he is green as **** himself. Line him up against the type of guys blue-chip prospects fight in their fourth fight and you’d see the same thing we saw last night.
Dude is the real deal, and him building his career in his own lane is fine.
For a valid comparison, I would pick him to KO Omar Chavez, another rich kid who has been training with all the resources in the world for 20 years, if they were in a similar weight class and fought tomorrow. What does that tell you?
