    his debut display was one of the best debuts Ive seen
    he looks the real deal, shame the failed medical means he won't be promoted by Hearn, so exposure wise he probably won't get as well known as he deserves in the early years at least. But he's surely one of our best prospects, fast, skilful, was a good amateur- european silver medalist and commonwealth gold medalist, this guy is gonna do really well, a potential future rivalry at world level with Luke Campbell as well!

    I've not heard of him but if he's failed a BBBofC madical he won't fight for the British title
     
  7. Or any other major title as they are all complicit with the British board.

    Didn't Campbell have it a bit easy with him when they met as amateurs though, after coming off an injury lay off himself?

    Or ever fight on a Board-sanctioned show. Which means no fight with Campbell in this country because no Matchroom fighters are going to box on a non-Board show here.
