Why no hype about Robert Easter? The guy has all the tools to become an alltime great! Long reach, great boxing skills, good whiskers, can handle

pressure, very conditioned, works hard in the gym, he has all the tools. Both Crawford and Mayweather would have had a very difficult time keeping

Easter Jr off of them there is nothing bad to say regarding his talent and toughness.

He's a good fighter, and is very fun to watch. His fight with Richard Commey was fantastic. I thought he edged it in the last round when he had Commey all but out on his feet and took the 12th. I had him winning by a point.

A future ATG I don't think would've struggled that badly with Commey, but Easter is definitely a fun fighter to watch and I look forward to seeing more of him. Everybody doesn't have to be an ATG to be worthy of our attention.

Commey is like a young NDou or Clottey very tough pressure fighter and Easter weathered the storm. He fights like he is really trying to get out of

the ghetto he would have survived the 1980s

You notice how loyal he is to Broner never turning his back unlike Mayweather!

Why is that a good thing? Broner's a douche who basically tried to act like he was better friends with Floyd than he was to try to piggyback off of his success. He ultimately ain't good enough to get it done in the ring against the Top fighters so he ain't gonna be the next Floyd. I think just about the entire Welterweight Top 10 would beat him.

Easter is a promising fight with a nice punch, and he showed grit in coming through against Commey, but he's still got plenty of room for improvement.
