What happened to the new American hype, Michael Coffie?

[BangEM]

…they told me he’s the new big thing in boxing but how did he get beat up by a bricklayer?

…It looks like Jared Anderson is getting flattened soon as well.

Didn't see anybody hyping him.

That’s you. But I see posters call he and Jared the future of American HWs.

Even Hatman made videos talking about how good he’s. I know Hatman is a casual but he posts on this forum as well.

Future what exactly? Dude is a 35 year old former Marine that took up boxing late. He had a nice win in his last fight but dude was far from "the future of the HW division" lol.

No one in America was hyping him. He was a novelty on PBC shows for being an old-as-hell ex-Marine.

He was being hyped by PBC, and therefore the “neutral” commentators, and it was absolute crap.

[BangEM]

He lost to the type of guy Wilder was KO'ing in the first round as a prospect. But Wilder is a bum right?

Stop it. Wilder never fought anyone as good as Jonathan Rice in his first 30 fights.

Wilder is a bum.

I saw people hyping him on here and YouTube.

I’m sure I saw someone on here saying he’ll give AJ problems (I know Hatman said that on YouTube lol).

I think it was the Dakuwaqa clown who said it.

I posted Rice would be a tougher fight for him then Washington . Washington who is one of the better U.S guys but Coffie had a about a 2 yr life line if he were to make something of himself and Washington had his best days already ,neither guys are the top U.S guys . Conto is actually the best potential imop , Anderson , is also very promising . Rice isn’t a bad fighter he’s a huge guy and weighs 270 ,I bet he feels like bricks if he lands on you consistently but I don5 think he’ll crack a top headline or anything .

Change of opponent can also effect a lesser experience guy who was Coffie ,or maybe he overlooked him ? Rice has been in with guys better then Coffie himself. He took Mahkmudov ten rounds .
