    I never seen it
     
  2. youve never seen it? i guess u havent watched many of his fights then...

    he knocked down peterson and hurt him more than once, he knocked out judah, knocked down maidana, tkoed malinaggi and salita. out of his last six opponents, he's stopped or at least knocked down five of them. fighters with no knockout power don't do that.

    early in fights he can be dangerous especially if your standing in front of him like in the maidana and salita fight but late in fights he becomes more of a slashing puncher, he can bloody,bruise and swell your face up, just like peterson, malinaggi and zab fights showed. i doubt the added muscle he's put on is going to help him. i think he'll probably feel arm weary late in the fight against garcia.

    He has and he can make you buckle your legs but he has to punch unpredictabily and on the move. The guy doesn' have punch power in the upper body but he has in his whole movement, spped and power to go along and he can as well outbox as hurt anyone.

    no but he does have some power and can hurt his opponents when he sits down on the punches

    He has speed and power, but a low ring I.Q. He doesn't know when to box and when to go in for the kill. Definitely still has problems pacing himself. If he knew how to tie up an opponent on the inside instead of pushing down, threw more bodyshots, and did more head/waist body movement he'd be on a higher level. Why he stopped landing those thudding bodyshots on Maidana when he knew he hurt him to the body is beyond me. Offensively very good, strong, among the fastest, but not the brightest. Roach fighters at least give me that impression.

    nope, he a shoe shiner!!!! if he wasn't so afraid to sit down on his punches because of his disgraceful chin being exposed then I reckon he'd have better than average power
