Was going over results and saw this kid is like 7-0 with 6 k/os. Opposition might noy be brilliant but has anyone saw him? If so, is he one to keep an eye on?

He doesn't go too bad but would probably get a better test against Aussie blokes than these imports. Not a lot of feather weights around but the few around that weight would tell us where he is. Just had a look at the featherweight rankings. He is rated 3 so he would get a better test against all of them ranked from 4 to 9.

Cool. Watched a few clips on YouTube. Throws a strange right hand. Leaves himself open too. Could be in some good fights. Who's his trainer?

His father Brendon manages and trains him. He never had a real big amateur background so I know his dad has to look after him a bit. Emmanuel would be a good fight for him as well as Tommy Clarke. Would steer clear of Ernie Gonzalez just yet. If he catches Braden he could be in trouble. Brayd is a good young bloke to talk to so wish him all the best. Be good to see where he's at by fighting some of those blokes we know.

I agree. Strange right hand. Slower the way they throw it.
Its amazing when trainers teach fighters things like this. Why not stick to throwing it straight. Its worked for 100 odd years. :o

:lol: Point A to point B, the quickest way and all of that. I guess some people don't believe in fundamental mathematics.

It amazes me how few boxers throw a straight right/left today. It's good to mix up the angle, but it seems as if many boxers have completely abandoned throwing straights.
