    The Current IBF #5 Jr. MW said that speaking about "Cotto, Margo, and Mayo."

    At On The Grind Radio, Deandre Latimore says Floyd was the best P4P...and he won't stay away too long.

    Thread on the show in the Lounge.

    Deandre is quite the Floyd fan.

    It seems that most of the fighters when interviewed say that Floyd would beat everyone at 147, but it is hard convincing the fans lol. We have to see it to believe it.

    It carries a lot of weight with me, when someone who is operating just on the outskirts of super stardom calls it like he sees it.

    I see Deandre being avoided though, he is a dangerous opponent.

    Here is highlights of him taking away Sechew Powell's IBF #1 Ranking.

    I saw the fight Suge. Going in Sechew was supposed to outbox Deandre. He totally underestimated his power and I was surprised Sechew lasted as long as he did getting hit with those bombs.

    Dude is on a comeup right now. All the real boxing fans should keep an eye on him. Skills, Power, a Real Trainer...has restarted his life in Vegas as a true pro.

    ...and Sechew has trained with Deandre before, he just didn't know how much he improved his entire game. He found out in the ring.

    Deandre still gave Sechew props for being a skilled fighter though, a sign of real class.

    Yeah, I saw the fight live. Deandre has to work on his defense a bit but he is a fine prospect.

    Yeah, and that is what I liked about what he said after the fight. Those are the suttle things we as fans forget. We get so into the fight talk, that they forget that guys truly don't hate each other, and are friends.
