Honestly the power is a tad bit over rated IMO, his shots are just as wide as Cintrons stance reminds me of Kermit Cintron. I do not think he is quite ready for the big leagues yet. He does have holes in his game and looked tired from the 3rd on you could see him breathing heavy in between rounds. Not ready to call him the next big thing quite yet lets see him tested, I believe had that been Maidana in there well he wouldnt have had him out that early nor earlier than Lora
Dude's power isn't overrated, he knocked Lora out with a left hook thrown simply from the arm while moving to the left. He KO's Paulie and he Ko's Bailey. Bradley outworks him right now. Floyd pot shots and KO's him. Alexander would be a great fight.
yes he dropped dude and stopped him with a left hook but he was landing hard flush shots earlier that were just as equal as that, the difference he caught Lora with a shot as lora was advancing. He does not beat Bradley, Bailey and Paulie are both belt holders really shouldnt be... he doesnt beat Floyd, nor Pacquiao
