    Good kid but not champion material especially at middleweight. Sad to say but if it wasn’t for the name, we wouldn’t even be talking about him.

      I give him credit for not going down the Jake Paul route as he could earn a few million beating up some Youtube clown or a broke former pro athlete...

        He seems like a good kid and a nice guy, but lets be real, he's never going to win a title. He's just not that good. Hats off to him for trying though , especially when he had to know that he would get a lot more scrutiny and criticism than other guys coming up. It's part of the deal, with extra privileges comes extra heat.
        Well, yeah, good for trying, for any boxer.

        But Im not really sure he gets more scrutiny. He gets a lot of airtime and commentary and free opportunities (and prob better $?) because of his name. It actually seems like scrutiny is the one thing missing, unless it's by us, the boxing fans who are tired of a fighter being made out to be what he clearly isn't. It's insulting but that's business.

          At least it's not like all of Fernando Vargas boys with their eyebrows plucked. That's even worse. This Ali guy looks more like kapernick..

            The Vargas boys can actually fight. At least two of them, anyway.
