    He has A+ potential but in the present I would score him as a B-

    It's hard to say if he's an A or B...

    Because he has a lot of natural talent, but gives some of it up because of his lack of technique. No doubt he's a good fighter though.

    Only time will tell. His Glass Jaw is certainly an issue. I look for him to get brutally KOed in his next 3 fights.

    world class fighter that looks like he have to pass a reality check before moving up to elite.

    This is very difficult to say because unlike the others we havn't seen him against good enough opposition to make a confident analysis

    He has A grade potential, but I just can't say he's an A yet. I can't really put a level on him.

    He has massive potential, but its very important that he is matched well as he improves, his last outing showed us a lot of tiny flaws.. Yoriorkis is very good , and above all exciting...... juanma is also very exciting, he is definitely one i have my eyes on.....

    C+ He is not the tipical prospect who has a lot too learn. He has been around boxing way too long. I dont think he will get much better than he is right now. His horrible defensive skills will get him in trouble very soon.
