    I struggle to understand why Rolly gets so many opportunities, I think he’s terrible tbh.

    Is he a bit of a draw in the US or something like that?

      What opportunities? He has only had 1 big fight against tank Davis. His other "big fight" was for a vacant belt.

        He’s going to makes some more paydays by being a knockout victim to upcoming PBC fighters. Look for him to get dropped by Frank Martin and Isaac Cruz in the next year or so after losing to Puelloz

          Rolly was just recently dropped and badly hurt in sparring. You can say he was knocked out, because he got up on very shaky legs, and if it was a real fight, either the ref would have stopped it, but if not, the guy would've finished him shortly afterwards. Anyone who's interested in seeing it, it's posted on Youtube. The guy who did it, is virtually unknown at this point- J'hon Ingram, 22 years old, just turned pro in feb 2022, is 3-0 with 3 ko's and fights as a super featherweight (130). Rolly had him on the ropes and was trying to dump on him, while Ingram stayed calm with a high guard. Then he timed Rolly right in between his wide bombs with nice tight left hook. And he knocked the sh.t out of Rolly. It was remarkably similar to how he was ko'd by Tank. J-hon literally did the same thing except from an orthodox stance. Rolly is very strong, but not scientific. He does things, but he doesn't know what he's doing it for. His trainer is a coach, but not a teacher. Rolly will be badly knocked out in the future

            Pure insanity and sadly typical of our sport! To make it worse, it's probably the champ's biggest available payday just because broadcasters use people acting ****** (Rolly, Connor etc) like websites do with click bait.

            New generation, they say people are talking about me, so what if it's negative...I'm famous lol. This is like being known as the dumb kid in school or as a bad employee and seeing it as fame/popularity lol.

                He just got KTFO and he’s going straight back into a title fight.

                  Yeah that’s the impression I get from him, a kid who’s desperate for attention who’s willing to do or say anything to get it.

                    I can see them feeding him to the Gary Russell who fights at 140 too. Antuanne is it? I lose track with all those Russell kids.
