    So Shakur Stevenson gets a silver medal at superbantam at the Rio Olympic. Where as Conlan gets bronze. Both sign for Top Rank. But Top Rank rolls Conlan out first (With incredible hype for a pro debut) in the headliner

    I wonder why ?

    But in truth here aren't many overrated fighters in amateur boxing since they always face the best and he is the current world champion.

    But that’s on paper

    From what my eyes tell me is that he looks good but not great.

    Yet he's being promoted like he's great.

    Now Robeisy Ramírez; the 22 year old double Olympic champion from Cuba who beat Conlan in 2012 and Stevenson in 2016 is a fucking unbelievable fighter.

    Man if he turned pro he’d shut down EVERYONE from Loma, Rigo, Choclatito…all of them. Ramirez is special and I could understand him getting that hype if he turned pro.

    But Conlan has dined out on his controversial lose to the Russian guy at Rio. Frankly he did win the fight, but it wasn’t no Roy Jones Jr type robbery in the 88 Seoul Olympics.

    Also unlike say Mayweather or Golden Boy promotions, Top Rank don’t really match there prospects HARD. So I can see him easily getting to 15-0 in three or four years.

    But Conlan is fighter best known for throwing a toddler tantrum and that seems to have built a load of hype for him but now he has to put up or shut up.

    St Patrick's Day is the best time for him to debut his professional career.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    It makes sense to debut Conlan on St Patrick's Day. Why not maximize the potential? Stevenson gets his shot next month.

    The crowd went nuts for Conlan and it was a decent 3rd round stoppage (maybe a bit premature).
    He's clearly gonna be a Massive star in the USA especially in New York which is home from home
    Turned Southpaw midway and smashed the body well.
    Decent Debut from Conlan

    That crowd/atmos was amazing (AJ/Khan etc had big hyped successful debuts but that pissed all over them). 5000+ punters for a six rounder against a road sweeper.

    They need to build a proper venue in Belfast for these bods (Frampton etc).

    Conlan was a well known brilliant amateur before he made his name at the olympics. However, its fair to say that fucking everyone off live on air was clearly an unintentional masterstroke. Fighting the same weekend in the same gaff as Golovkin helped too

    It's obvious that you are trying to say that it is because he is white, Shakur Stevenson turned pro 4 weeks ago you fucking idiot, of course Conlan has been 'rolled out' first.

    Anyway, I'm just about to watch the fight now, I recorded it last night and completely forgot about it.

    What a way to make your pro debut. If Conlan can live up to his potential the sky is the limit.
