I heard from a friend of mine that he is turning pro. Is this true? If so, who is he signing with? who should he sign with? If not, how are his amateur fights going along?

I did hear this rumour, but heard from somewhere else he has got an amateur fight lined up for next month. So who knows?

I think he's trying to get a fight with Kindelin arranged for his amateur swangsong.

He'll be pro by next year definitely.

He'll probably be bigger than Audrey Harrison, in terms of hype. Certainly he has talent and age on his side, although I'm worried about his lack of experience, especially considering he's still growing and has had 1/2? fights at light welter, and that at amateur.

A fight with the cuban has his sswan song , Jeezus the shite that comes from certain mouths, You can bet the reason he turned pro now is so he don't meet the cuban and suffer another loss, hence diminishing his value
