Ebo repeatedly tried to get another match up and was pushed away repeatedly. You guys figure it out!!!! The next bout for Ebo was in his home town of Atlanta where he was out boxing an extremely talented #2 ranked fighter. I was there and I witnessed Ebo out box him and out point him in every capacity. Ebo did get caught with some good shots but out pointed 3 to 1. In the 10th or 11th round his arm got caught in the ropes and he received some straight punches that I don't think many fighters could have taken. I was there personally for many of his fights and I know first hand what this kid is capable of. If he could just get over some small things that are keeping him down he could definitely be a top champion. Anyone who has watched some of his fights knows he has a heart of a lion

Yeah there is no question about his heart, the Courtney Burton fight proved that. I just dunno why he has entered the contender and is fighting big welterweights on there. He is only a lightweight himself! I just don't see him beating the big guys of the show, but maybe. He is one of the most skilled on there no doubt.
