    Here's a few of vids on him. Apparently he's going to be the next big star!

    Man this kid is driving me crazy, I wanna see him fight asap, no sparring footage or anything tho..They make it seem like he is totally unique, not trying to bight Floyd, has his own innovative slick fighting style, without even using the shoulder roll...The way roger was talking, this kid is something beyond extraordinary, something boxing eyes have never witnessed before

    How come there is no footage, sparring? amateur fights? What weight is this kid at? looks small. Maybe should wait a while before turning pro? looks on the skinny side.

    Is this some kind of con to sell T-shirts? or whatever it was they were selling. Didn't look that hot on the pads. If that's all we got to go on, I mean, they can give it the talk but the jury is out big time on this guy.

    lost a few times badly in the amateurs so they are going pro with him.

    he is very small and will take a while to grow into his strength.

    I don't think he's ready for the pro ranks though. Why not stay amateur for a couple more years, build himself up.

    so one can be successful in boxing without necessarily having to live up to the hype. boxing is about promotion to generate ticket sales.

    this kid can cash in and out.

    This is a joke, right?

    Working the mitts, this kid doesn't even look like a real fighter. No balance, no pop. Nuthin.'

    Working the HB, he doesn't use his legs, and he doesn't even hold his hands correctly.

    WTF ?
