    Thoughts On Brit Prospect Josh Kelly?

    kid is pretty entertaining to watch...not sure he can look THIS good against better opposition but he's pretty fun to watch

    Getting a lot of buzz over here.

    Looks good so far. Not sure how effective his style will be as he moves up the levels

    Beat the Mexican national champ in his last fight. Apparently they are gonna go for a top 30 opponent next

      Good prospect bit ****y with the hands down style. Will have to improve that as competition increases. Does everything good nothing exceptional. Probably has a high ceiling for improvement though seems attentive. Watch josh Kelly the profile on YouTube if you get a chance its a mini biography type shoot.

        Don't want to get ahead of myself, but I get flashes of Lomachenko when I watch him.

        I rate Josh taylor as the best prospect just now, but give Kelly 10 fights and I might think the same thing.

              My coworker showed me a video of him last week and I thought he was very Lomachenkoish. Need to see him against higher level opposition, but really liked what I saw so far.

                Not that impressed thus far.

                Can't see that style taking him far.

                  He's very fun to watch and a total class above everyone he has fought (obviously!), but his style is extremely risky so whether he's good enough to pull off that style at european/world level is what's yet to be seen.
