Hes going to turn a lot of haters in to fans I think...Happy to say hes proved me wrong...I thought it was going to be Wilder type ****, but no, he wants it now..His confidence is through the roof down to all the hard work in the gym. Hes a respectable young man when not in boxing mode or in front of media !
I think that's how you want to portray him in your mind, but the reality is quite different. The kid is a class act, and has a bit about him. Jr had haters way before he became the villain, but after the WBSS he could be one of the sports biggest stars!!!!
No, I think the way you're portraying him in your mind as a class act, is borderline delusional. The kid is a massive piece of trash, he's a grade A vomit of the highest order, and he was and still is a villain. He's Broner with a British accent and without the criminal activities.
He's yet to fight anyone of substance bar the caravan kid BJS, if Groves beats Cox then we will know where CEJ truly stands in boxing.
That is true, but even then he would still need to win the final to really break through. Jr is an exciting fighter, the fans just want him to prove himself. If he can win the AliTrophy he will become a big thing IMO, he's nowhere near there yet, but I think a lot of people are starting to believe he can do it, they weren't thinking that a year ago!
Even Saunders was nothing special, Jr just didn't own it that night and let himself down. I think he learned a lot from that fight, some great fighters have those tight fights early in their career but a lot sneak away with the win even though some people don't think they deserve it. I thought he beat Saunders, but he deserved to lose based on the performance.
