    For marketing purposes that's good.

    But for his career I dont think that it is that good.

    A fighter who usually fights one round will have massive problems when he fights for 12 (if not destroyed via gassing out at 8th or 9th).

    12 rounds is a freaking marathon, usually we forget how much stamina do you need to stand 12 full rounds there, but I remember it very well.... marathon like effort. If you run 100m all the time, and suddenly you need to run a half marathon.... that's not good for your.

    I dont understand how his trainer does not force him to NOT to KO his oponents and to go, at least, at 3 rounds... AT THE VERY VERY VERY LEAST. With 15 fights he should at least be 8 rounding if he wants to get the necessary exp and stamina.

    He's a slightly more refined Babic. A violent KO waiting to happen, and it can't come quick enough for me. He comes across as intensely unlikable in his interviews.

    I don't like him. Just something about the way he carries himself tells me he's a massive douche. He also put Benavidez on notice and said that people are wrong to compare him to Mike Tyson because he actually has skills. As if Tyson didn't :facepalm:

    It’s great what he’s doing can’t take nothing away, I would like to see him close up his defense and not be so wreck-less when punching when has someone in danger zone. So far he’s making headlines which is great for him.

    Its genetic Psychopathy he always had that energy even as a child, very hard to like these people, especially once you get those predatory unexplained/unprovoked stares. He chose boxing, so its good luck for normal people, he could have chose an easier path and picked another hobby, so its extra action for boxing.

    He said he punched harder than Mike Tyson, he is correct & Mike Tyson spent lots of quarters in his lifetime getting embarrassed by 6 foot teens who scored higher than him on the PSI machines. Mike Tyson raw punching power is extremely exaggerated by casuals WDKSAB. Mike Tyson Knockouts were the result of precise combination punches versus psychologically conquered opponents. Skill-wise Mike Tyson is probably the best in the heavyweight division history (unless you count James Toney and Roy Jones as Heavyweights), but outside the Heavyweight division Mike Tyson skills are contender level at best. Same applies to any Heavyweight

    If you get a couple KO1s in a row it's time to move up in competition. The guy he massacred this weekend should have been 5 fights ago at least.

    Look at Teo! Almost the same pro experience and he's undisputed.

    Who does TR have for him? A lot of the obvious matchups, like Benavidez, are with PBC.

    He’s a typical nyc thug, plenty of them here, all of them mentally weak.
