    Is this guy legit, or is he getting to be known in the boxing world because of his name? I seen him fight and he looked good, but it was too short of a match to make an assesment. People that know of him, what do you guys think is he potentially a world beater?

    Yeah he looked good, I was impressed. Of course he is not as good as the old robinson, but who the hell is?

    He's good , sound technically, good speed but lacks power...He can be world class but i don't think he will be world champion one day....

    Think this might have been the 2nd time I've seen this guy and to tell you the truth I'm not very impressed. Just another member in the long line of ESPN's so called "prospects" that aren't really going anywhere.

    He looked good tonight beating another undefeated prospect. Look forward to watching him on more FNFs. He was 142lbs but looks like he'll end up at 147 he's huge!

    He lacks power, but he puts alot of pressure.

    I guess time will tell, but he's still relatively new to being a pro, so I am sure he will improve with his next 3 or 4 fights. The fact that he's only 23 years of age is definitely something to make note of since he still has plenty of time to develop into something more. You may be right though at this point nothing worth bragging about, but what I saw was a young kid that banged out a step up opponent with an 0 record. He beat him in spectacular fashion and potentially I see him getting better. I am optimistic at this point :).
