    not sure how he would fare w/ bigger guys at 140. beltran caught him good late in the 12 and it made him do a double take on his final attack. i wonder how he'd take and react to the punches from the guys at 140. he was almost always the bigger puncher in most of his fights.

      If he fights Antonio Demarco next and beats him he will be on my P4P list.

        What do you mean the "great new hope?"

        Hope for what, exactly?

          He has potential to become elite. He is learning with the championship fights and will become a top dog soon if he can remain undefeated.

            He'll end up becoming an elite fighter but that's only because the quality of boxers are getting worse and worse. I saw him fight a few years ago and predicted big things for him back when no one knew him, so far he's lived up my expectations but if anyone thinks he'll become as good as Pacquaio or Mayweather they'll end up being disappointed.

                    I wasn't too impressed with him against Burns, and he was in trouble against a natural featherweight in Gamboa...

                    Doesn't really have the ''it'' factor.
                    the "it" factor being he is not white....yea, we know

                      TBH I don't understand that how a racist person start to watch boxing. So many sports where arent blacks, latinos and etc... for example swimming, handball, waterpolo, etc...
                      It's a very ****** thing to start to follow a sport which is mainly ruled by a race you're hating on. Sorry it's just a loser thing to do.
