    “He isn’t really about no action. We’ll see if he’s really about that action'' and indeed we did.
    Just using their names for clout.

      Which he should. He is arguably the most skilled in the game right now.

        Honestly, I have never seen a complete boxer. He can fight from all ranges, has tremendous power, is the best switch-hitter I've seen since Hagler, has good defense (potential to be elite), has great footwork, and counter-punching, and his timing is exceptional. Taking resumes out of the equation, I would favor him to beat Floyd Prime for Prime.

          And look at Ennis' record. And walk back 15 fights. See if those names are not viable.

            They are not viable in 2022 and I think over half at least retired.

              Ennnis got 30 fights on his record. Stanionis in comparison got 15, as an example.

              If you walk back 15 fights, we'll be talking about 2017, not 2022.

                Well he gets nothing but praise from every fighter. They see that 29-0 with 27 KO’s and probably don’t want any part of that yet. Maybe everyone is taking a wait and see approach to see if anyone “exposes” him first.

                I think he’s taking on whoever he can get. Lipinets and Dulorme were decent wins. You think other top fighters are lining up to fight him?

                He has called out some top guys but that’s all he can do right now.

                    Needs a name makeover and new promoter to compensate for nobody knows or cares to know who he is, otherwise going the Cornflake Lamanna route.

                      Jaron just turned 25 in June. What killers were Bud and Errol fighting at 25?
