He seems like a nice kid, but it's time for him to start looking for an exist strategy.

Maybe he can be a "boxing personality" or commentator.

He seems to have watched lots of old footage. At his weight, he needs to do everything faster which ends up meaning a higher volume of punches thrown. Plus, be first. No time to get comfortable and into a rhythm, the first bell rings and it's round 15 of a close fight.

A nice jab won't do anything if you pause, admire and contemplate your next move. Make them react to you.. never assume that one counter punch will force the opponent to reset.

..yeah back to retirement for me..no more posts lol

The problem is, he has no talent. He reminds me of Salvador Sanchez lll, nephew of the great featherweight champion. He looked almost exactly like his uncle, but had no talent, But they made some money promoting him building a padded record against hapless competition before he got demolished and disappeared.

Go to BKFC. The talent level there is still low enough that he might actually have a shot at a belt and the direct comparison to his HOF grandfather and aunt isn't there so there's somewhat less pressure.

I kinda forgot about "the grandson of..." narrative

Dude ain't that good. He's avg at best. At this point he should just aim for one decent win then go fight one of the Paul brothers or ksi ECT it'll be plenty of championships level money for just that exhibition. Boxing isn't for him, it's to late to start MMA he's better off going to bare knuckle or doing Netflix exhibitions

Unless they make a special plastic title called "The Ali Title" and put him in against some 13-9 fighter in a scam, he is not going to become a titlist. There is a very small chance that if a disease wipes out all but one fighter in his division, a lower top 100 raked fighter, they can fight for a title. See, he has opportunities, lol! He has ZERO "it" factor.
