I met Abdullah Mason in 2019 when I went to one of his fights in Ohio with Dave "Congo Kid" Kasindi, who was a student of mine and who twice won the Dallas Golden Gloves. Abdullah is an enthusiastic young kid and has a bright future in boxing.

Really love the activity level of Mason. Had his next August fight in Canada already made prior to last week. Sharp head on his shoulders too just as Shu Shu.

I'm sold on Mason

Mason is "ok"... Nothing extraordinary, but watchable.

tim bradley sounded surprised when he got knocked down. he had his hand up so he was probably surprised he got knocked down too.

Actually have no problem seeing a young prospect get a severe acid test very early and come out on top in explosive fashion. Just seems like the new default label is "exposed" anytime young guys run into their first real adversity. Again...we want it all in an instant these days. Fantastic instant mini classic fight and was actually yelling with old school excitement seeing Mason dropped and on the brink. Man has to look into his chest at some point and answer the tough questions rather than have it all handed to him and be 100 percent comfortable in there. History is littered with some of the biggest names facing similar adversity early career and learning and carrying on. And tbf it's also littered with young guns who were rushed and incorporated their flaws into an overall game rather than correcting them, ultimately imploding under the hype-job banner. It's a process this development thing.

Abdullah Mason continues to impress. Giovanni Cabrera is being billed as a step up, but I see Mason handling him with ease and getting him out of there early.
