Prospect Keith "Machine Gun" Tapia, Future HW Champ..

[PrBoxing88]

I was on board until you went to Ali. Give the kid a break and don't compare him to the GOAT

i'm not comparing him with Ali lol, is the way he acts in the ring is like a young Ali... skills wise not yet, but he is fast as Ali with footwork like Ali, but I DON'T WANNA COMPARE HIM WITH THE GREAT ALI.

Will the Puerto Rican fans support this kid? Just saying because his a Nuyorican , and they have that Nuyorican vs Boricua thing

oh yeah he was living in PR couple months ago, he is bilingual too...

looks too small and wild to me

He won't be heavyweight champion if he has to beat Wilder, Joshua, or Klitschko, but out of all Puerto Rican prospects currently out there, in my opinion, this guy is the top Rican prospect out there.

I think this guy would beat Joseph Parker, and would have a decent chance at beating Alexander povetkin.

Let's see how he progress but i think he can beat Wilder and Joshua, they more slower than tapia, besides Tapia got a pretty good footwork with fast combinations and good power too... let's see how everything settle, but i tap Tapia to be a champion in 2 or 3 more years.

Ali was 6'3, this kid is 6'2 and only 24 yrs old, he got a solid amateur career, anyways ill bring this thread back in 2 yrs or less.. lol

You are out of your mind. Tapia is good, but there is no way in hell that he beats Wilder or Joshua. They both would put Tapia on ***** Street. Wilder is the fastest heavyweight in boxing right now. If a Tomato can becomes a heavyweight champion like Povetkin perhaps, then I can envision Tapia becoming champion.

I think this kid is faster than Wilder man. He won't be beating Wilder any time soon though. He has a lot of talent but he's very raw!

i dont see anything there. he'll probably get KOd soon with such a leaky defense

He did get hit a lot, especially in the first video where he has the guy out on his feet and still, he is getting hit. He needs lots of work on that department but he is very athletic and has some good attributes too. HE just needs a good trainer and hopefully he can adjust.
