Giving him millions may be premature, but he looks very good right now. I think he will be a superstar, and obviously Reebok sees that as well. It's a gamble they decided to take, and I applaud them. Boxers don't get as many endorsement deals as they deserve, so maybe this is a sign of things to come.Comment
