    Tell me about this guy.

    From what I've read he's a solid prospect but I haven't seen him fight yet. He's fighting on Shobox this Friday against another unbeaten fighter.

    :good

    I casually knew him a couple years ago when I was living in Killeen, Texas. That was back in '04 or so, and even back then, he had this aura about him like he thought he was the ****. Also, he was messing around with the daughter of the manager of the place I worked. He was 19 or 20. She was 15 or 16. She used to always come to work with hickeys on her neck.

    I couldn't care less about his career. I hope he gets KTFO.

    he casually asked about how he fights, nobody gives a **** about your personal vendetta that you would never present to him. man, ESB is overrun with a bunch of douchebags and whiny little girls:-(. but to answer the TS's question there's little to no footage about him, but judging fom what ive read he sounds like a hard hitting pressure fighter.

    This is more proof the super middle are going to be THE division. FOUR undefeated hot prospects doing battle. Edwards and George will be the truth in the division in a few years. Don't know about Johnson. His opposition is really soft on his record, but who knows, though Edwin Rodriguez's record looks stonger.

    yea, goerge can hit like a MF. all though i can see him getting outboxed as he's somewhat slow. but his KO power makes him so exciting to watch!

    Another serious tough rising super middle is David Lemeiux of Canada. He's got inhuman punching power, but his only serious problem is his reach (65", that's Hatton's reach for comparison). Still, when he gets inside, he destroys whatever is in front of him.

    Also Groves, DeGale and Saunders. There's plenty of talent coming up at 168.

    I think he gets picked off all night long once he steps up and faces top notch opponents. Just doesn't have the movement or reflexes to get inside on someone who has much longer reach, and as you said, who wants to bang with him if he hits like a cement truck?
