    He's been down by about 40 lbs from the beginning of his career.

    Only his chin has to be really tested yet.

    The more the merrier in the heavyweight mix.

    Hes obviously talented.

    And if he keeps taking that weight off, lil by lil like hes doing, will be interesting to see how he does as he steps up. Its just that hes rising just as it seems the heavies are on the verge of a pretty good crop.... with some real tall, big, in shape guys.

    Will be pretty awesome to see how he matches up. Hopefully he continues to progress :good

    I would be embarrassed to show this guy to anyone that's not a hardcore fan. He's got fast hands and looks good beating stiffs but man lose some ****ing weight fatty!

    Guy looks like Chris Arreola lite. Not in good shape but does have decent power to entertain the average observer.

    its a shame really. the kid is young and doesnt know what talent he has. somebody should get him to lose weight if they really care about him

    He's always gonna be chubby but talent is talent. He's a cool dude though in all the interviews I've seen him in.

    As long as he stays around 250. 240 would be nice too.

    Great handspeed, and fearsomely quick combinations ..... especially considering how much blubber he's got to shift every time he throws a punch.
