Seems like a nice guy eager to develop. Not a good thing to come in with as much surrounding focus on beating natures clock as you have on winning your first start though. Artificial 4,5 yr timelines get you in trouble. But late starters can bloom too. Gold medal Mercer came in a hair under 29 years old and was in a time-capsule classic with Cooper within 1 year. Grabbed the wbo in under 2 years but at the time the wbo was pretty much dismissed as irrelevant. Clarke will get the massive debut showcase on that undercard but I hope they don't make the lights so bright..for every single fight..that he doesn't get blinded. The best thing is to go off the screen early in those "making sausage" type match ups.
