    He can be HUGE IMO, the way he controlled the fight with Winky Wright was a stunning show of stamina and skill and aslong as he doesnt get bamboozled again (like he did against Quintana) he can go far, but a loss in his next 5 fights will set him back on his quest for world supremacy IMO. But very bright future for sure.

    Not real big.

    No fans.

    No charisma.

    I voted on Fairly High...


    I personally think pw is a very personable person, honest, eager, real, and has a great smile which is important....I think that with all these characteristics if he can build a good string of victories (gets some 'BIG' fights at 147, can show dominance at 154, and can earn 'ONE BIG' win at 160 [kp in particular]) that will be enough to garner him some attention..... the boxing world will be put on hold if he can pull it off and it will trickle out into the sports world

    I dont think he is outspoken enough to be Supermega Star.... but if he can rack up some big wins... i think he will be able to get pretty big

    I voted fairly high. If he ever were to take on the villian roll, ah la Mayweather then perhaps he could be even bigger.

    He has to be able to get some fights first and maybe put financial demands aside, temporarily.

    To the best of my knowledge, he has nothing scheduled and he may have to underprice himself just to get a shot at some people.

    As you said, if he can clean house at 147 (which is a reach cause no one wants to fight him), Win a couple of belts at 154 (convincingly) and then spark the **** out of KP, which will happen if they ever fight (Williams is three times the fighter KP is) he will be a pretty well known name.

    It is the money thing. Just fight and win and he will most definitely get noticed. Then the money will follow. His best win is Winky, but fans will say Winky is old and shot. He has the WBO 145 interim. Why not fight that champ who actually called him out?

    It is going to take much more than a smile for him to get really noticed. He needs fights pronto. Just stay busy and let the fans see him whether it is with a top ten or fifteen.
