Leo has the body frame to for sure move up in weight eventually. He just moved up to featherweight and maybe in a year or two he should move up to 130 pounds.

His power and speed seemed to have carried from 122 so that's at least a good sign for him.

He has a fan friendly style which makes him very marketable and sellable to the fans. Plenty of good options for him since he's with Haymon.

He probably wont. He barely has any power at this weight class

[daggum]

this guy is broner'ing so hard right now.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Santa cruz's skillset won't translate well in higher weight classes..


Once Santa cruz isn't the bigger longer fighter, and is smaller than his opponent, he will get roughed up

[PrBoxing88]

let him come, Verdejo is waiting... lmao!!

That nice but first go get the other 4 belts at 126

Please fight Gary Russell Jr. @ 126 before you move up! Pretty please?
