Comments Thread For: Photos: J’Leon Love vs. Chris Pearson Sparring in Vegas

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Step inside of the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas on any given day and you will see your share of prospects eyeing their next move.

During a recent swing through the gym, I caught some action between two undefeated hopefuls in middleweight prospect J’Leon Love (14-0, 8 KO’s) and junior middleweight prospect Chris Pearson (7-0, 6 KO’s).

Sparring four-minute rounds, the action was tactical with some spirited exchanges mixed in. [Click Here To Read More]

Still not sold on Love. Wasn't too impressed last I saw him. He boxed well, but nothing elite jumped out about him to me. He's still green though. Maybe he'll make a believer out of me.

Are you talking about the fight on Fox Sports? If so then I thought thats the best hes looked. But you never know with these prospects. I think technically hes one of the best young fighters out there behind Gary Russell Jr (way behind). I think his shoulder roll fighting style is a lot closer to Floyds than Broners. He has Floyds jab and checkhook. He doesnt have Broners punching power for his weight. I think hes a little undersized for 160. I would like him a lot more if he was fighting at 154.

I believe it was his fight against Hunter. You bring up a good point, it may have been his lack of pop that left me with that impression TBH. Haymon prospects always get more hype than most too so I am always a little bit more skeptical anyway.

I'd like to see Love step up against a Rubio, Zbik, Lee, Lemieux, etc.
