    He might be the best in the division but hes far from great.

    he looks good in highlight clips fighting bums but when he fought geriatric breidas he looked very average

      He is in a tough business and winning is the name of the game. Him vs Ramirez would be interesting.

        He's got a decent chance of becoming undisputed so...

          Want to see him overcome major adversity first.

            Far too early to ask the question

            hes barely set himself apart from the other current Cruiserweights. It’s not outlandish to rank Zurdo ahead of him, as the resumes are paper thin.

            if he beats Zurdo then it’s worth asking. But reality soon hits hard, in that’s it’s possibly the weakest cruiserweight has been for quite a long time

                  It's a terrible era. The 2nd WBSS was still a tougher era than right now.

                    We will see how he comes through a Tim Tszyu moment. Tim looked great in Australia but failed to pass the step up tests. Jai always looks good early...but seems to gas a bit late. A real war with someone like Beterbiev....which would be the money fight for him...would give us the answer.
