    Sutherland was born to be a pro. He loves to get stuck in immediately. He is heavy handed with every shot. Great body work. Not a typical slugger as he will happily step to the side and backwards then reapproach you.

    I know its early days but what odds would you get on Daz winning a world title. Looks great and seems to have a good head on his shoulders.

    I think Maloney won the lottery with this kid

    I'm interested in his stamina because he fights high paced rounds.

    If his two round ability can go over 12 then I give him the best chance out of all the prospects.

    British refs love stopping journeymen asap. It was one sided though.

    I actually thought Jeffries looked better than expected.

    And hes fighting at Super-Middleweight too.

    Future matchup?

    Hatton reckons Sutherland is the best prospect out of the Olympians.

    Hatton thinks Sutherland is performing the best out of all the amateurs. I agree.

    I like the look of him, definitely the best of the olympians.

    His jab is thudding.

    The jab is exactly why he's a far better pro than DeGale even at this stage.

    don't agree with the stoppage tbh. doesn't really help sutherland much if he's not able to get the rounds in - of course his opponent had no chance of winning but never did anyway.

    Jeffries was heavy handed but he kept dropping his hands to punch and I didn't like that. I had a feeling DeGale would not suit pro immediately and guys like Jeffries and Saunders can show their strength and power that isn't obvious in the pros.

    Sutherland reminds me a touch of Cotto.

    Natural ability and rhythm.

    He's got a lovely jab there.
