I like him and hope he do well but is he so good that we would have talked about him if it wasn’t for his dad?
He would be considered a legitimate top prospect, but it's impossible to fully disassociate him from his father. I think he needs to settle down and box a bit more cautiously in fights, headhunting against domestic level opposition is one thing... But this approach will likely see him caught at the upper echelons of the sport.
I thought he looked better against Horn than against Sparks. Needs to box and be patient like @UnleashtheFURY said.
Lol. He just stopped a guy with body punches. In his post fight interview, I believe he said, he said he was going high so Spark would lift his arms so he could go to the body.
Has done a good job so far. Has fought the best fighters in Australia who were willing to face him. There are a couple he didn't face that I would like to have seen him in with. One retired after being offered a fight with him while the other pulled out with a week to go. It's presumably onto recognizable international opponents now. A Commonwealth title defence against Liam Smith followed by fights against the likes of Tony Harrison & Danny Garcia followed by a title shot against Kurbanov is the path I'd like to see him follow. Those are all winnable fights for him if he's good enough.
Happy to hear some positives about him, here in US he’s pretty unknown and I don’t hear much about him. I have kept an eye of him because of his dad, it would be fun if he came here to fight, how big of a draw is he at home?
Seems to have a solid skill set but hasn't really faced a real test yet, so it's a bit difficult to gauge his ceiling.
He's incredibly confident for someone who doesn't have that much fight experience compared to other fighters in his weight class. He knows he's improving and he's moving his career at a really good pace. 2 more fights and he's ready for championship fight. I don't think he can beat the elites at 154, but who knows with his confidence.
I think Beefy beats him but I've picked against Timbo Slice a couple of times and have been proven wrong.
