I'm getting serious Josh Kelly vibes with this one.

He’s cringey af that’s for sure…that Prince Naseem dancing, clothing and showboating had me reaching for the sick bucket!

Talent wise it’s difficult to judge but I expect him to be stopped the minute he steps up in competition.

Shalom needs to put on more competitive matches

[JayCho]

Shalom keeps talking about what an unbelievable talent he is, so put him in competitive fights. He can be fast tracked, he’s an olympic silver medalist ffs

'I'm getting serious Josh Kelly vibes with this one'.

Don't agree. I think they can both come across as ducks with a false sense of their ability, but from early doors it was obvious JK had flawed technique. He hardly threw a jab! Even though he beat the robot lad from Darlington I'm not confident that even Adam Booth can instill boxing basics into JK at this late stage in his career. BW doesn't have obvious flaws beyond, as I say, being a bit of a tool. He does, though, need to be matched much harder. A man who went almost all the way in amateur shouldn't be at ground zero as a pro.
