At least he's fighting. I'll become a fan of this guy if he keeps this active. He's not special, but he does a job.Quote:

Seriously. Does fighting once a month get you any closer to a title shot then fighting every other month or every third month? Theoretically isn't more stock placed on whom you are fighting?
In some cases (Tommy Morrison) just racking up enough wins to make you're record look good can be enough to get you a shot. Winning it is another thing. Kudos to the guy for staying active. Reminds me of the old days, not the bozos of today who fight once or twice a year against people they KNOW they can beat.

He's a top 10 contender I think, roughly the same level as Bika, Andrade, Inkin.
He should provide some entertaining fights in the future.
@boxinggorilla. I expect they want to keep him busy to get his mind off the Calzaghe loss. A few quick wins will help erase the memory and self doubt that might be lingering.
Good, I like him............ He beat Mora's gay ass in that rematch..... I was also secretly rooting for him against the Great Calzaghe(Which it got stopped prematurely I think by some fat,sweaty ref)....I would like to see him do well, He deserves it!Quote:

Sometimes you don’t realize the injury until a day or so after the match.Quote:
