    I was looking through GBP Roster and I noticed this guy, Travell Maizon. 6-1 140 (short arms though). 12-0 11ko, against soft competition. He is from Austin and works with Anne Wolfe.

    He looks like a real comer, if he has a chin.
    Only 18 in this clip...

    The arms might be shorter compared to other guys of a similar height, but a 75" reach at JWW is nothing to sneeze at. Does he use it, though, being a Wolfe fighter? I'll take a look at the tape shortly.

    That's only marginally shorter as my reach, for a frickin' Light Welter!
    If he has a chin and fights defensively, he might turn out very hard to beat at that weight, as he has the favorable nationality too.
    Looks like he isn't past bumbashing stage yet though.

    And hes rather fast and nimble as well. Will be a pain in the ass for even the best of the 140lbs.

    Needs to get a real trainer, tighten up his defense, utilize his height and reach advantages, and eliminate the unnecessary, wasted movement.

    Maybe he can limit Anne Wolfe’s role to that of conditioning coach.

    Yeah I looked it up later and saw that he has a 6-3 reach, but his arms just LOOK short. He must have broad shoulders. I guess he is a jmwt now anyway.
