    Dan Rafael: Gary Russell Jr moves like Floyd. He has that level of talent

    Besim (Staten Island, New York)

    What do you think of that combination that Gary Russell Jr. threw, which was shown as part of a highlight reel during the Khan/Judah telecast? That was something to see. I'm excited about this kid.

    I have been saying it for awhile -- Russell is one of the best prospects I have ever seen. His speed is sick. He was a great amateur and he just knows how to fight. He has moves like Floyd. He has that level of talent. Whether he can harness it and become a great pro remains to be seen.

    hes telling the truth, ive spent the week looking at russell jr tapes, and the guy is sharp! it should be a while before he hits a wall. he has the tools to be a p4p fighter...only thing remains to be seen is if he has the brain and the heart.

          Russel's power and hand speed is ridiculous

            Broner is a better puncher, but Russell seems to be more complete right now.

              Dan also made similar comments years ago about Devon Alexander (as did Max Kellerman).

                yea, just because they were wrong about one person means nothing about another. ppl said the same thing about guys like roy and floyd, they werent wrong were they?
