LOL..He is a good fighter no question. Truth be told HBO lost almost ALL of their talent to PBC and they have limited options. They LOST EVERYONE. Roman is good but its a hard sell in America as most GROWN men don't enjoy watching 112 pound men "fighting". I know I prefer heavier weights with opponents that I actually recognize. BJ FLORES

no one is forcing you to watch. change the channel.
1800+ lightweights...............
If boxrec doesn't list you, your comission of boxing doesn't exist....before you even bring up that excuse....
What you need to be a good flyweight and below- being as tall as a 10 year old to compete in the shallowest talent pool.

The boxing elite are forcing him down our throats, trying to convince us he's p4p #1 by fighting cans. There are so few men in this world that can make that weight that you can't get good fighters in that class.
