Here we go again, rushing our prospects. One good knockout and we start thinking title shots. Haven't we learned our lessons with ciso morales and marvin sonsona? Winning a title is one thing, there's lots of it around, but staying on top is the difficult part, and it requires experience, which these kids lack. Stop looking for the next pacquiao because it's a curse like the next michael jordan. They always fail miserably (ex. Grant hill).

I just observed that all of the title matches of the rushed Filipino prospects are the WBO belts...

I think WBO should raise their standards...

just an observation...

i agree, these fighters are very. though they have the skills, their body is not yet hardened. i can remember marvin sonsona looking very good in the first round of his last fight but ended up getting knocked out in round 4. please, a bit of an advise for the managers, advisers, trainers, handlers, do not exploit these good fighters. they still have a long way to go. you will end up making more money if you will wait for them to be ready.
