I'd like to see Xander Zayas, fight 11 times this year his 2nd year as a professional. The 9 times in 2022, his 3rd year as a professional, as Sugar Ray Leonard did during his 2nd, and 3rd years as a pro. I know that it would be a difficult schedule to attempt, especially with the active pandemic. That said if he, and his promotional team could some how follow Leonard's blueprint, he'd the biggest thing since Leonard. Wilfredo had 12 fights in his 2nd year as a a professional, and 11 in his 3rd year. These two fighters are legends, and superstars of the sport of boxing. There are many who are who are predicting greatness for Xander Zayas. This being a sincere possibility, Zayas' promoter should follow the fighting schedule that the aforementioned superstars embarked on. That kind of schedule would have Zayas challenging for a title in his 3rd year as a professional or sooner.
