Can this guy back up his boasts, or is he all talk and no substance? Will he reach the heights of past greats such as 'Sugar Ray Clay Jones Junior'?

I've only seen a minutes worth of clips on YouTube and he appears to fight with flair and flamboyance (or at least tries to), but looking at his record he's yet to fight anyone with a pulse.

What will become of him when he steps up in class. Is he our next big super-star or just another chump with a loud mouth?

He has done well so far, but I think he'll be exposed when he steps up in class. He has a lot of holes in his game.

he's got a bit of talent.

i'm a fan and i think he can definitely make an impact at british title level.

beyond that we obviously need to see a lot more from him.

I was ringside for his fight with borovski (is his name?), really dull performance, looked like a wannabe in there instead of adopting his own style and going to work on the ukranian. Think he had a nice moment in the fourth, other than that dull,dull,dull.
I think he may normally make British level, but I dont see him beating Jamie Moore (although he'll vacate soon). Matthew Macklin, Michael Jones or Gary Woolcombe.

Seen him fight on tv a few times and wasnt very impressed. I think he'll get spanked as soon as he steps up in class
