Like neither Ruslan (just as powerful if not more) nor Manny (buttloads faster & more explosive) could? :think
:nod Garcia would find that left hook again and again. I do not think the man can take em for long. We may see Salka #2. :admin:scaredas:
Oh yes, for sure, undoubtedly. But I do see him being caught with them as the rounds progress. I don't see why people overhype this guy so much on this forum, he's not a top 10 fighter at JWW. There I said it. He's so overrated and Khan is going to shut him out tonight. Khan is going to bust open that cage and beat the living daylights out of Algieri tonight. I'm 100% sure.
I agree somewhat, he got overrated briefly after (legitimately) defeating Provodnikov, who in turn had a lot of undue hype built up beyond his true level. And then of course Pac Nation wanted him to be some kind of monster to vicariously pump up their man. I don't know if saying he isn't top-10 @ 140lb holds water, though. :think Maybe a tad far in the other extreme direction.
I just glanced at the Rings 10 JWW. I said he was not a top 10 JWW. Seeing who is now in the top 10, I may take that back. :nut
This is like saying a postman should get a chance at the champ Algieri shouldn't even be boxing let alone getting a title shot.
