Reshat Mati

I remember years ago watching a documentary on him as a kid. Then saw his name pop on the GGG bill and just watched his Last fight highlights.
Sadly I wasn’t very impressed to be honest. He doesn’t seem to know how to plant his feet and get some real power into his punches. I know he is young but given his amateur experience I expected better. He actually fights like an amateur just little cuffing shots in and out.
He’s in a killer division (welterweight) too. For some perspective Vergil Ortiz Jr is the same age but if they were to fight now I think Ortiz Jr would be jailer for man slaughter. Just can’t see Mati getting near world class unless he learns to sit down on his punches more and stop bouncing around so much.
Hope he proves me wrong. Seems like a very nice kid.
