I'm not too sure where you're coming from here. He's already fought @ MSG & is scheduled to fight in Chicago & Brisbane soon. I'd just like to see him fight in Belfast & Dublin before the year's out. "The Kid's looking good & could/should go far"!!................

His last amateur bout was in August at the OG of Rio (?) so 9 months after he only have one pro fight? he's probably not good as Lomachenko or Rigondeaux so 2/3 pro fights by year is not enough for sure
By reading you comment and all those locations it's like he already fought 5 times this year but in fact he only have 1 fight...

That's my point, if you leave your debut year with 2 fights your a ****ing moron.
