    If anybody seen all his Knockouts as an amature you know the power is there I just think a bit of tweaking this Guy could be very dangerous. he has an American style of movement which British boxers just dont have.

    I don't rate him at all.

    Has a really poor shoulder roll and gets hit way too often.

    Brave lad but can't see him going anywhere.

    i saw his loss too, didn't seem controversial to me and he didn't make me think he was anything special

    maybe i just caught him on a bad night, but can't really see what all the fuss is about him

    He prepared for a 6 rounder and was told 1 hour before the fight it was a 4 rounder and Robinson refused to fight a 6 rounder due to money issues with promoter. Ochieng loss by 1 point could of been draw or no fussing if they gave Ochieng fight. Robinson threw many shots no sure how many landed but a good fight not sure about the promoting

    He's a Mayweather wannabe, but he's a good kid with charisma and has some skills. Hopefully he gets promoted a bit better, he has the style and personality to make a name for himself domestically.

    I dont think he is a Mayweather Wannabe. I think he knows his Erick Ochieng and its about time too boxing has some respectable nice guys trying to make it to the top.

    I think he is a good techincal boxer and impressive with how he puts his shots together. If he can get promoted good he could have a decent career but i am not sure if he is an Elite level fighter but defiantly has potential

    Still very early days with him only 11 fights, I believe the best days are ahead of him and still learning his trade. Next fight is @ Alexandra Palace on Darren Barker Bill 8th September will be defending English title
