    Some tough sparring...

    GB hyping him as its next star...

    A lot of hype around him, supposedly gonna get a title shot this year...

    Also heard rumorz in LA gyms that he doesn't take punches the best...

    Interesting prospect

    More speed than skill but time is on his side.

    He looks crazy fast, not sure if he's power or just timing dudes so well with shots they aren't seeing. I forget which fight it was (if it was even him) but I recall someone applying some pressure to him but he didn't react well at all. Mind you, at that age there's a lot of room to work

    I met Ryan Garcia at the Smith Jr fight. Young lad with skills. I hope he succeeds

    He's talented, for sure, and seems like a hard-worker as well, but it's a little bit too early to say. A lot will also depend on how good his chin is.

    He seems more flash than substance, but he definitely has talent. However is it gunna translate well vs capable pro level boxer, too early to tell

    I think he’s 8-0 with 8 KO’s. Saw him the other night. Looks promising. Hopkins was really impressed with him but he showed some defensive liabilities that he will need to work on. But his power is real
