    He looked like a million bucks in his last fight when he TKO Soto Karass in 5. I was really impressed by the way he used his jab and kept the distance against Soto Karass. He's 6'0 with a 78" reach according to boxrec. He is clearly very big for a light middle weight. He has already lost a few fights (Angulo, Guerrero, Ennis...) but he seems to have taken his career seriously.

    It should be noted that Soto-Karass had lost several fights in a row and was fighting at 154 for the 1st time. His body did not look like he belonged there IMO.

    With that being said Rosado last fight fight was in January and I don't know if he has anything scheduled yet. Where do you see him going?? Who should he fight next? Delvin Rodriguez would make a good opponent I believe.

    the way he destroyed soto karass impressed me. he actually did what he should've against a smaller, overmatched opponent, absolutely enforced his will and destroyed him. I think him versus delvin rodriguez for a shot at canelo would be great, even though canelo's probably looking for bigger fight, they've paid their dues for sure. I really think delvin and gabe at least deserve to be in line for a big fight. if they both fight each other it has foty potential for sure.

    Indeed!! Not sure why but I tend to forget that Canelo is in the mix too.
