i disagree. go back and watch more of his amateur fights. he gets tagged a lot and when he gets hit that chin is not tucked. he gets tired and he gets sloppy and that technique goes out the window. he starts arm punching and lunging and his legs have bad balance.

the guys you are assessing him against right now are not in there trying to win.

the ref had to give him a standing 8 count here and he got lit up the entire second round of this fight against a guy thats trying to win.



hes improved a hell of a lot since his amateur days. he was still pretty much a novice amateur in the olympics.

the problem with saying that is the level of competition hes fighting is designed to make him look good
:dahell: He's starting his career that's how it goes 99% of the time. Only current exceptions are Loma and Rigo

its doesnt but how good is he thats really the question

you cant answer that kind of question looking at these fights he has had. you have to go back and see how he preformed in the amateurs. you have to see how he fights against somebody thats really trying to beat him.

Isn't that how you look at all prospects who are starting their pro career?
