First you're a prospect, then a contender, and you stay at a contender level while no other contender or prospect has beaten you.

Age has nothing to do with his status. If he loses this fight he'd lose his contender status because he wouldn't be close to contending for a title.

There you go. Wasn't that difficult was it.

Getting stopped by the SAME guy who is known for his power is no shame.

His age will eventually catch up with him especially in a young man's sport like boxing.

Until that happens he is still a good bet against a lot of the hype jobs out there who are much younger than him.
