Prospect of the year felix verdejo

[Violent Demise]

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.

I don't give a fuck where Dulorme is from. He was always overrated. He made his name off his highlight reel knock out of the 20-15 Harrison Cuello on the Victor Ortiz-Andre Berto under-card. He knocked out a scrub in spectacular fashion and all of a sudden you and your kind started over hyping him as the next great Puerto Rican champion. He was in way over his head against Abregu. Abregu is a good fighter. But he's a B fighter. And he showed everybody that Dulorme was a C, D fighter. He's looked like garbage ever since. He had to go the full 10 rounds in his last fight against a 75 year old Hector Velazquez. And this is the same Velazuez who fought Kevin Kelley at featherweight over 10 years ago. There's no need to be objective when it comes to Dulorme. He's crap
