One of my favorite fighters and definitely my favorite youngster.
160 is very deep with young talent though. Korobov, Golovkin, Lara, Pirog, Guerrero, N'jikam all talented with alot of potential. I like how Matvey has looked in his fights so far, part of that being his pro friendly style which made the transition easier. He is developing and being brought along good so far by Top Rank.
It'll be at least another year before he's far enough along to be in an eliminater/title contention. (So long as there are no Alekseev type roadbumps)
