But who did he fight there though? Correct m if I'm wrong IB (only seen two of his fights there, one was outdoors if that rings any bells) but he was never the no.1 in the division and never faced a top 3 ranked fighter, let alone beat one. Again, correct me if I'm wrong :good
Absolutely no one. Projections of being elite were just conjecture based on him looking dominant against C and B level guys. As I said, he looked special.
I would say he lived up to the hype with his win over Soto :good It's after that where I struggle to conceive how so many rate him so highly.
