Is this the most protected fighter in the biz, or what?
Since that terrible decision against Miranda, he has fought a string of nobodies. Now Elvin Ayala? Who lost to David Banks--twice? How does he even get into the title picture? Because of a draw with overblown Contender champ Mora? C'mon...
He is fighting a list of losers like I have never seen a 'champion' do before. And they continue to do their best to accommodate him by not sanctioning a mandatory or a #1 or #2 contender. What a crock!
I give him credit for his wins over Ikeke (Mwt) & Jantuah (LtMwt), but he refuses to fight any real top ten guys, I really wish Winky would have taken the contract to dispose of this overrated boxer, and I think a fight with G. Lorenzo would be the perfect remedy at this time. But again, he seems to disappear from anything that might pose a real risk to his record.
Don't get me wrong; I think he still might be able to make waves in this division, but until he steps up the competition, he will always remain overrated in my book.
