    Thoughts on Rau'shee Warren?

    A 3 time olympian with great amateur pedigree. Ive seen his rise in pros and although he lacks KO power he has some amazing skills. So far every thing seems great and i do think he will become a multi-weight champion though lack of power and too much slickness may not help him become a "star".

    What are your thoughts? Championship material? Next big thing? Hype job?


    Also ive seen comments about his looks so try avoiding that cuz A) not the point of the thread B) cuz indirectly you are really trying to tell what your dream man "should" look like, so no thanks.

    Leaning towards hypejob.

    He gets tagged pretty badly in every fight for someone who's supposedly trains with a focus on his defensive background and he's extremely feathefisted

    And he has pink hair

        Just needs more fights against quality fighters and he will without a doubt be a champion, maybe not top p4p but he will make some noise in the lower weight classes

          A decent enough fighter, but I reckon his lack of power and sometimes sloppy defense will prevent him from doing too much.

              Hypejob. No power, questionable defense, questionable chin. Nice speed and skills but he strikes me more as an "athlete who turned to boxing" than a "boxer with athletic gifts"

                I saw him fight on the Lamont Peterson card. He was fighting a tomato can but he busted him up pretty well and dropped him once I think. He is fast has decent power but like everyone in band camp has weak footwork. I can see him working his way up to becoming a number one contender.

                    Same here. He has slick skills and a solid chin. Also hes used to amateurs so he doesnt settle down on his shots like a professional but i think that may improve and hence his power. Not saying he'll convert in to vic darchinyan but enough to keep people off of him.
