    Chad looked awesome!

    chin tucked, balance spread out, base steady, shoulders cocked for defense, elbows tucked punches short and crisp and than bang he pops off a 5-6 punch combos and then circles and pivots outta there...this kid is simply brilliant! This is boxing and his footwork is incredible, guys this tall ain't suppose to be this sharp, he sat on the toilet like sweet pea lol Some call his style boring, I love it! He could do even more which is frightening.

    Some say he should move down to SMW as there's lack of opponents at LHW, but he's huge, he looked like a cruiser tonight, i don't think he can move down to '68 without being severly depleted, maybe move up to cruiser?

    Why does he need to move? How about he fights a non-geriatric? Or at least a truely great geriatric in Hopkins down to the road.

    How about someone his age, Cloud or Pascal?

    Plenty left to prove at 175 as far as I'm concerned, but Chad is the best fighter at that weight, he needs to go out and prove it.

    he's an excellent talent.

    rate him highly meself.

    he perhaps doesn't have star quality in terms of spectacularly knocking guys out.

    but he does everything well and is a winner. :good

    He might be able to knock guys out. He's fought Johnson and Tarver 4 times, they have been knocked out a combined once in about 80 fights...so what do people expect out of that? The best you can do is school these guys and Chad does it.

    I was suggesting it'd maybe be better for him to move up rather then down IF he was gonna move (most people are saying he should do) which i wasn't advocating, i'm on record as saying Chad should they put, take a seat at 175 and rack up the defenses ala Hopkins and dominate.

    Oh btw you know Bhop wants non of this kid, its not a massive payday and he's alotta work.
