    Great to watch him fight. Unlike the others I havent seen enough of him. He is young and looks over anxious in the ring. That's ok as long as they match him carefully and bring him along at a good pace.

    You got it all wrong homie. It's because of comments like this that he has so many haters.

    You are talking about Adailton De Jesus who was 19(17KOs)-2 when he fought Gamboa. And he never dropped Gamboa, it was clearly a mistake by the referee. Gamboa slipped, was out of balance, and got kinda pushed at the same time. Go watch the fight on youtube.:bbb The rest is true tho, he got legimately dropped by Jimenez and Ramirez, his poor and weak defense is to blame. But more than his defense, it's his cockyness, he really thinks that his opponents are his whores and he's their pimp. He gotta correct that.

    As long as hes not brought up to fast he'll do good. I think its to early to tell if he'll be top 10 p4p but hes definately being pushed tward the public that way.

    In the case of Ramirez, he got hit with the elbow and wasn't groggy, or chickendancing after it. I think it partially proves he doesn't have such a weak chin as some people say.

    future #1 P4P

    however if he gets Knockdown 1 more time again to low level opposition like he did in his previous fights then Im jumping ship, i wont allow myself to remain ignorant like the Khan fans and face reality the hard way.

    in his last fight he was hurt, the elbow is what put him down, but he was hurt prior to that and tried to hold which led to the elbow KD

    ya He got hit before the elbow and you see him wobble... either he has a weak chin, or just poor defense but really good recovery
