    The Cuban dynamo is fighting on the Crawford-Madrimov card in August and I'm curious what the consensus is about him

    He is going to waste his career away by fighting for the regular WBA belt.

    Genuinely heavy handed in the Julian Jackson Zhilei Zhang sort of way. Just has to touch you.

    I think he should of stayed at 168 now benavidez has gone up but it seems like pbc is lining that fight up next.

    He’s very good, not sure how many guys at 168-175 I’d definitively pick over him. Time will tell how well thought out the move to 175 was, if he can get the Benavidez fight or another big one it’ll be warranted.

    I've read the book, but personally I prefer to watch the movies, than his novels. No offense to David Morrell.
