Prospect of year: Vasyl Lomachenko - ESPN Video

[Violent Demise]

Yeah..... he's the antithesis of the Canelo's and Chavez Jr's of the world. They're bringing him up awful fast, whereas these other guys fight 50 bums before seeing a live opponent. Polar opposites.

Wouldn't be nice to see amateurs actually taking fights to improve their development rather than just pad their records

Yes it would. Unfortunately that didn't happen to the late Sulaiman's proteges. They come from the school of "record padding". Hype the shit out of them.... feed them bums for 40-50 fights.... and award undeserved PPV status. Hell... with that M.O. even Boy George would've been a boxing champion.

It's not undeserved if the PPV sales. Hate all you want on Alvarez and Chavez but bottom line is they can turn a profit on PPV. Put Verdejo or Dularme on PPV and I guarantee you it bombs. Even if by some miracle there family were some how able to afford it they still wouldn't get it
