Excellent amateur, unbeaten, fast hands, fast feet, BIG puncher and he's only 22.

This is him obliterating Carlos Manuel (future first ballot Hall of Famer) Portillo and Hank (at his absolute peak) Lundy.
All aboard, the train is about to leave the station!!!!!!!!!!!!

looks good indeed, the counter left hook knockdown vs portillo was sweet

It looks like he's promoted by his father, which is odd, but not unique. He's fighting Jeremia Nakathila this weekend, which is a decent test.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑07 Nov 2023, 21:05 looks good indeed, the counter left hook knockdown vs portillo was sweet

Was a bit late on the bandwagon, only really became aware through the Lundy fight (was rescheduled iirc?) but his activity + level of opposition is extremely refreshing. Seems to be being built very well.
Interesting that he's doing it without the support of a major promotor or any broadcast affiliation. Doesn't seem to be holding him back at the minute, but I wonder when they'll choose to go down that route.

Looks a terrific fighter, heavy heavy hands
that was a great win last night, although I didn’t know that the dangerous Nakathila had been stopped in his last fight too, also an impressive result.

that's not a gym, it's an event/party venue
