    The Golden Boy Jorge Linares

    What is next for Linares and how beautiful is his style of boxing?

    Linares is a great fighter, he has that problem with his skin more than his chin, but he is great, one of the few boxers that have mastered every single punch in the book, great timing, great skill, power, speed, cordination, a joy to watch but he is in a tough one, lightweight went from being the weakest division to one of the strongest, now with Mickey, Zlacatin, Easter and other prospects, the division is hot, but i wouldn't mind Linares beating them, he is that good, but seems to miss that something that makes a great talent into an elite fighter.

      Put him in there with Mikey or Lomachenko.

        Lomachenko gets beat..

        Linares is on another level. He is a kind of fighter whose made from that same cloth as the Ray Leonards, Finito and Marquez.

          Absolutely wonderful fighter to watch. Tough, entertaining and has every shot in the book available to him. Love to watch him have a go at taking Crawford out. Would be a great stylistic match up.

              It's a hell of a fight regardless of who wins.

                He's fantastic to watch, a real throwback fighter in that he knows his craft and fights with bravado. He's not hard to hit though and I think Garcia would put him through hell.
                Loma might be too much as well but Jorge would at least put up a great fight.

                The best test right now would be Easter Jr. That's a 50/50 IMO. Would love to see it.

                  I can't get behind a fighter who has the audacity to steal the nickname of an ATG like ODLH.

                    He was given the nickname by someone else.
