Canadian 154 prospect, only 21 years old. How good is he? I've read about him but not seen him fight yet.

I think he has a lot of potential. Fast hands, good reflexes, moves well, and complements that with some nice pop.

I'd like to see his draw with Herrera (haven't found it yet), as it would probably give a better idea of what he needs to work on. At his age I don't think that's much of a blemish on his record though.

Yeah I need to check him out. I've read some articles about him which speak highly of him. It would be very good for another legitimate world class Canadian to come through aswell.

I've seen him fight in person twice, when I was working the corner for another fighter on the same card.

I immediately became a fan! And I've tied to stream all of his fights online since. He has great balance, power, and fluidity. At 6 - 0 (the first time I saw him) he reminded me of a young non-alcoholic Pavlic. I'm hoping for big things, he is easy to watch.

He was really classy and tidy in our shared dressing room as well... A good sign of a level-headed pugilist.
