Hmmmm, made my post based on the pro debut.

This last fight in your link, at 22 seconds into rd 1, Diego De La Hoya got shaken up and was holding on after eating 2 crisp jabs thrown by a journeyman with 6 wins(1 KO), 12 losses, 2 draws. Jabs making your legs do The Judah Shuffle, that's a bad sign.
Some guys need a good crack in rd 1 to wake them up and get them goin' though!
Yeah this kids used to hunting. Offense seems to come easy. The vet picked that up and suckered him in twice with a slight feint and jousted him. The second one might have been just him being impetuous trying not to show weakness and going right back at him. He's young. He seems to have his footwork down and throws punches in bunches. Hopefully he smooths out some rough corners and gets a little polishing before he comes across a slick counter puncher. I know it sounds like a blanket comment, but for now I would say avoid anyone that grew up fighting in the Cuban system...they schooled to prey on fighters like this pick them clean down to the bones. Wether he becomes a Marquez or a Bojado/vargas can depend on the kind of fine tuning he gets.
