    he's only had 6 fights but he has insane world ending power plus an amazing amateur pedigree, he's a southpaw too which makes him very much dangerous for anyone

    Good, exciting fighter but he needs some fights where he is taken deep safely. If he just rolls over guys and they throw him in there with someone tough, he might get in some trouble.

    He'll be moved fast.
    I expect a world ranked opponent next time out

    One ugly mofo tho.

    I do hope they get the Periban fight back on track. Would be the perfect step up fight.
