Prospect of the year felix verdejo

[TitoFan]

Recently it seems like every time a Puerto Rican prospect gets a little attention they crash and burn and lose soon after. It's like they fold under the pressure. Verdejo has a nice skill set. But so did Thomas Dulorme, Luis Del Valle and Jonathan Gonzalez.

You seriously impressed by Verdejo last performance? I didn't see anything impressive about it. Verdejo is alright. I think Wonder Boy Jose Lopez is a better prospect

You make it sound like Dulorme will never be back. You of all people should know one loss does not necessarily derail a good prospect. As for Verdejo, he must be pretty damn good. You're usually pretty stingy with your praise for P.R. fighters and for you to say Verdejo's got "a nice skill set" is rare indeed.

In any case, it's all speculation. Time will tell on both.

Be back to what? You making it seem like Dulorme was a champion before. He was never even a contender. He crashed and burned as a prospect. He might one day be a fringe contender. But he'll never be a champion. Abner Cotto has a better chance of being champion than Dulorme. And Abner Cotto is garbage.

Yes.... a prospect. No one ever said he was anything but a prospect. He was on his way up..... he got derailed. I prefer to adopt a "wait and see" attitude instead of immediately condemning the guy based on deep-rooted biases. Had it been a Mexi-Cali propect suffering the same fate, you'd be singing his praises and woe to anyone who criticized him. Try to be a little more objective. The future hasn't happened yet.
