    This Zou Shiming cat ain't that impressive

    Roach said he reminded him of Pacquiao, I don't see it.

    And he's already 31. I'm interested to see how fast they try to move him along.

            I'll reserve my opinion after I actually see him fight in the pro ranks. There are really good amateurs that don't transition well to the pro ranks, and there are amateurs that aren't by any means standouts and do well as pros.
            He's old for a flyweight and for one making his pro debut. Its good to see China finally enter the pro game though. They could be a force to reckoned with in the next decade, especially in the smaller divisions.

              I definitely see the similarities, he is obviously green but his punches are thrown the same way. He pulls his hands down low after punching but I think once he develops, he will be moved very fast due to his age.

                To be fair this is still a new partnership. Every trainer does mitts differently so it could probably take some getting used too

                  He's good, but this has way more to do with money and establishing a market in mainland Asian than it does his exceptional talent.
