Anyone see Vernon Paris' last fight v Nasir Outhamani?Next fight with Stevie Johnston
It was a really excellent fight.Paris looked AWFUL.
Balance was poor
Over committed to shots
Wild,wide looping shots
Smothering shots
And a whole host of other things including a rusty ass shoulder roll.He looked good v nobodies,now he faces a rugged 39 year old journeymen and he it was a DAM close.I had Paris by 1. He lookd crap and I cannot wait to see him get his ass beat.
His promoter said Stevie is next:March 29th.Lets see what he does when his power does not bail him out.

If I'm not mistaken he's like 21 years old. Right? I saw him a while back and it was the same problems, he's a very excitable fighter who carries a lot of energy into the ring which is great to see after what's happened to him in his life but he does make the mistakes you listed a lot.
Still, he has amazing speed and a good shot, I think he'll beat Johnston. I would rather him not move up to fast though because he's not ready. Still, I could never root against him simply because of what he's come back from.

Definalty wasn't the best he looked, but you gotta remember the kid is like 19 or 20 years old, he has a lot of time to learn and improve.
I think the talent he's shown is incredible for that age. He has a lot of promise and a very interesting backstory to go along with it
