        I like him and I really hope Ricans don't overdo it with jumping on his nuts hardcore like they did Cotto.

        Hopefully he can achieve greatness in his own way.

          He has all is needed to be great, speed,power, timing, discipline and hunger, lets see what happens but i really think this guy is the next PPV king, even Arum thinks Verdejo will be the biggest superstar of boxing.

            I think hell be the next PR star hopefully similar to Cotto, has the skills and fundamentals to go far, be interesting to see how he reacts when hes in a tough fight against a top level Mexican (Mexican vs PR rivalry)

            I think hell become a 2-3 weight world champ too based of what ive seen from him.

              Always so obsessed with blacks and Puerto Ricans while always sticking out for your master.

                Exciting fights every single time.
                Whether he is the next Tito Trinidad or Juan Manuel Lopez, as long as the guy brings it every time, I'm tuning in.

                  When people call a man a king, he believes he's a king. When the people want the king to go to war, the king looks to his knight to win the war for him. Only in boxing, you have to be both the king and knight and it's often hard for the king to put a sword in his hand when he is used to holding a bag of gold.
                  I wouldn't compare Diamond boy with JuanMa.. They have two different personalities and fight differently. Diamond boy fights with intelligence and JuanMa fought with heart and in the end it's what cost him his career. Felix is a Christian and is as humble as they come.. He's a lot like Tito IMO..

                    Berto should have been. He was fed too many tomato cans that he became complacent, never recovered after that.

                    He also should have taken the Mosley fight when he had the chance.

                      Thoughts? Sky is the limit for him IMO.
                      Not sure if he will get the Dulorme treatment but I dont see him going too far.
