Good to hear that he is going pro. Massive shoes to fill. I remember watching a newscast on this young man and his brother, both athletes abs his brother a star American football player. If you’re going to inherit athletic genes, I suppose you can do a lot worse than the Greatest

He’s a fraud. He has an amateur record of 4-2. He gets to cash a check because of his father.

His brother’s football career is pretend too. He went to Cal (which means he wasn’t wanted by any of the football schools), was irrelevant and transferred to UNLV, which is even worse at football than Cal.

I heard he never had any real amateur fights he just did some charity boxing smokers against some young kids.

Top Rank will likely use his name to sell and feed him scrubs.

his brother was a star recruit running back in high school, but he couldn’t cut it in the ncaa. Now he models.

Damn, that is a STEEP decline of Arum based on that photo. Holy crap - so he's a big drinker.

That 89 year old certainly looks like $h!t. You burned him.

You people are some dam haters, he’s a kid for God sake and just happen to be one of the greatest grandson’s and y’all going after him and his brother like their your enemies, just rotten people and wonder why you not blessed with anything. I met this kid a few years back at a amateur boxing reunion in Vegas when Ward was fighting Kovalav and he was a humble quiet respectful kid but you MF’ers are a piece of work on here, but I’m not the one; come for me!

[ShaneMosleySr]

Why can’t I point out that he’s getting a check to box solely based on his grandfather’s name?

Do you say the same for Tim Tszyu? Chris Eubank? Connor Benn? Or is this reserved just for Ali-Walsh here?
