    Anyone see his fight last night? I watched it and thought it was a great debut, obviously it's too early to say for sure what impact he'll make on the sport but he's with GBP and he's got a bronze medal under his belt so hopefully he can do big things. Devasting right hand for the KO apparently something which wasn't a big part of his game before so he seems like he can adapt well in the pro's.

    Thoughts? :think

    Great performance and the KO was legit. Can't be jumping to conclusions but does look good.

    At least as far as Chesterfield, I would imagine.

    A long ways. He looks like he has a quillin type build and skill set. Probably more athleticism too.

    Pretty good stuff, the guy he went against was pretty live too as opposed to what other prospects are typically matched against. Be looking forward to his next fight:good

    He's definitely faster than Quillin I can say that much

    It was the mindset that impressed me the most there didn't seem to be any nerves and he looked like he belonged in the ring. Very confident start to a career unlike what we saw with Harry Khan.

    A solid opponent for a debut fight certainly I'm sure they said that was only the first or maybe second time he'd been stopped. Waiting to see how quickly they will progress him.

    Ya I agree. His mental strength is solid. You have to know that from his road to the olympics and his performance once he got there. Hopefully he can keep that head about him.

    Not far, he'll look good against no hopers but once/if he gets to the level of competition he was facing in the amateurs he'll start losing, and by KO. Like Khan, he got rocked a lot in the amateurs.
