Definitely my favorite of the up and coming US guys. Definitely wish he was more active at this point in his career.

He will. He was injured.

Is Torrez at this stage ready for say a Joe Cusumano? Jared Anderson? Thoughts.

despite cusmano's flattering win vs kownacki, i think torrez would beat the breaks off him

torrez beat jah in the ams but it's too much of a step right now and top rank would never match them this early anyway when they both have such high potential

Boxing has a problem with making fights for prospects and staging fights. It wasn't this hard 10-20 years ago. I do not blame Torrez for his lack of activity.

Boxing's middle class is disappearing. That is a threat for the fans and prospects alike.

Love this guy. He's a fellow nerd and looks like a grown up version of one of the kids from Stranger Things.

Used one of the 0.1% fighters that can’t be used for the “will get caught when they step up analogy”

pasty american hw prospect = must be next joe messi

messi was probably top 15 or so at his peak and actually won all his steps up, so competitive wise it could've been a lot worse tbh

When he gets paid he's quite durable but from the highlights it looks like a laboured win for Torres. Still at least the ko`s keep coming. He just needs to grow the tash a bit bigger

Gloves continually getting lost in Harper's flubber?
