    I like his style dude is slick as hell......very fast good defence he still has a lot to prove like his chin and his power. If he can keep those hands healty and take a punch he could go a long way

        Same here, shoots down the common belief that slick fighters are only African American.

          I think his ****iness is partly an act to intimidate his opponents and psyche himself up before a fight. In the one post-fight interview I've seen of him he was really quite humble. What ImSoFlyy said about meeting him seems to confirm this.

          He's a hell of an interesting fighter to watch, the way he gets those quick jabs in that still seem to do damage. Will have to see him against better caliber opponents before making a final judgment on his prospects, though, and like a lot of guys have said already hopefully injuries won't continue to bother him.

            I would have to see him step up against a halfway decent opponent first. The only times I have seen him were against no-hopers.

              The kids hands are beyound fragile and he has no KO power, so he's got those 2 very important things going against him.

              I've seen about 5 of his fights and I do think he is a talented kid, and that he has potential, but I just don't think it'll be enough to overcome those 2 huge flaws he has in his game.

                Exactly and the crowds were booing him, like they booed Naseem. Dude is entertaining.

                  any thread invloving this guys name can only make it about 5 posts before someone calls him a ***. ive never seen so many people insecure in their sexuality in my entire life.

                  i tell someone to kiss my ass on this forum and their response is always along the lines of "why, what are you gay or something"

                  in case nobody told you, a a "gaydar" is something that "gay" person has to detect other "gay" people. so its nice to know we have at least one "gay" person on the forum who can sniff them out for everybody else.
