[*Boss*]

This guy getting a title shot is a disgrace.

Idk but he looks pretty big on the upperbody.Maybe he will cut down on
picking up weights.

[No-mas-tias]

I hate him because he's Mexican, they all suck as boxers, he's a ducker blaaah blaaah blaaah.

J/K, making fun of many Mexicans here that act like that. He seems like a nice guy and has big time talent for a 20 year old, he just gotta keep perfecting his craft and getting experience.

if he can get speed and keep up and stay focus the sky is the limit for saul .

his technique is actually very good for a prospect, he understands the game better than a lot of guys that hold belts right now. if anything hes lacking a little bit physically, and also possibly in proper punching form.

I would make him hit the pads, and also a lot of jumping rope...seems a little ponderous on his feet at times, and in general his speed could use a little work.

Too slow. Chin will get exposed within the next 5 fights.

possible.
he does need to work on his overall speed and reactions.

I do like that he learns from fight to fight however. ever since the Cotto fight his right hand has been glued to his chin, and he does seem to be improving from fight to fight.

Because Golden Boy/HBO are banking on Saul Canelo Alvarez and Amir King Khan to be huge stars.

Just like they tried to do with V. Ortiz and a few others.. Golden Girl hasnt made any SUPERSTAR PPV fighters... They stick to cashing in on themselves, DLH, Mosely, and Hopkins.. DLH and Mosely are gone, Hopkins aint PPV material anymore, who does Golden Girl really have to carry the torch..?
