    This guy is a BEAST!

    Anne Wolfe is kicking his ass 24/7 in that Bootcamp.

    Forget Bradley and Broner, JT is the next great african-american Fighter to dominate the sport!

    Kirkland trains like a beast but he will get out boxed by tons of fighters. But none the less he is extremely fun to watch. But Dominate ..... I don't think so.

    I hate how he treats his sparring partners. He'll get his again. Fun to watch though.

    When it comes to instilling heart and motivation, yeah, Wolf is the person he needs. She obviously has what it takes to make him dig deep in occasions like the Angulo fight.

    But that’ll only take you so far, at this level. Her training techniques are outdated, and she needs to be open to idea of other more skilled coaches chiming in and brushing up Kirkland’s current skill-set.

    Edit: Oh, and dominate the sport, he most certainly won't.

    I sure hope he's in a warm tropical climate drinking seaweed and protien shakes by the sea somewhere having his muscles rubbed and his sweat fanned off by native hotties.

    The kid needs a rest, and training shouldn't even be considered until he's about 10 weeks away from a BIG fight.:deal

    He's got a long way to go, which I don't think he will ever make it. He's one of those hard punching boxers that last for a few good fights, but he's not very good. He'd be a better street fighter than a boxer.

    I have to admit, I like watching this guy.

    He's not technically sound, but he's gritty.

    I agree! He's a great boxer-puncher and has a good chin too!

    Oh wait..
