    watched his fights with Chitilata today and felt he won both.

    I liked his style where he was aggresive but used good angles to set up attacks and i felt he was a cross between Harada and Olivares.

    Can you guys tell me more about him?

    The more I see of him the more I like this guy..Though I wasnt very impressed by his average performance against Isrido Perez which I saw not long ago. But he was perhaps one of those fighters who just had a short shelf life, and with his style thats no surprise.

    Reminds me of an early Duran or Aaron Pryor stylistically..A truly excellent example of a top shelf swarmer.

    H2H and ability wise one of the best fighters to ever come of Asia I have seen on film..Very few if any Id pick over him from 105-108.

    Watch his fight with Tokashiki. There are moments in that fight where he seems almost super human. In the 7th or 8th round he had Tokashiki badly hurt (how he managed to stay up is beyond my comprehension, tough little *******) with one of the most intense displays of offensive fireworks I've ever seen. I think he'd have gotten in Lopez's ass. McGrain would've liked to have seen that. Ambiguously.

    This little ****er was bad ass. Aside from his phenomenal (not a word used lightly here) stamina and workrate, he also had a natural ring radar. His offensive accuracy and defensive intuitiveness were a product of it, and he blended the two as well as damn near any fighter I've seen.
