    The guy was moving very well before he got cocky against Grachev.

    A singular lapse in fundamentals, due in large part to gleaming overconfidence, and he's completely written off by fans, and it seems as if he's stopped fighting altogether.

    I still got high hopes for this kid. He's got all the tools to become a champion, and despite Teddy Atlas having a stroke for actually calling out his flaw, I still think this kid is a huge draw.

    I had him cruising to a wide points win over Grachev. Something like 70-63 before he got tagged and went down from the flurry that followed.

    Anyone know where he's at and what his plans are for the future?:huh

    Didn't he want to move up to CW? But he hasn't fought in a long time that's always bad for a fighter as young as him

    He was winning by a landslide against Grachev, but as soon as he got caught, he had no idea what to do. He backed himself into a corner and let Grachev tee off on him. I'm afraid that the same thing will happen again next time he gets hurt.
