    He has impressed me so far.

    My only concern is that he's not very tall and has a short reach for middleweight at 64", but then Hatton, Duran, Tyson and Marciano had successful careers despite being shorter and reach-challenged.

      You think he's able to go down one weight class? He seems too small for his current weight.

          Looked excellent on FNF. He'll probably get a title shot soon, no?

            Lets relax though. Honestly he should move down to 154, he looked more like a Jr MW to me.

                Very impressive last night.

                Besides all the high points, and there are many high points. The one thing he needs work on is head movement, and defense with his feet. Sometimes he stands there with a high guard, when all he has to do is step back.

                With that said, he doesn't get hit a lot because of that high guard he has.

                  His fundamentals are out of this world, and he could just as easily Mayweather a guy as knock them out. I think 160 is perfect for him and he should not venture to the 168 class.

                  154 would be detrimental because he might lose some of his raw power.

                  Saul Alverez v David Lemieux would be a great HBO fight to launch him into superstardom.
