I was impressed initially with all the things you mentioned, then I saw him get TKO'd by Donny McCrary in his home town and the ref let him continue.... I dont fault Green for that but he showed heart by getting up and KOing McCrary. Made me question his chin and ability to take a good punch though so I think if he steps up the Comp and shows up big this year he could be the real deal..

To me a Green vs Manfredo fight is a more appropriate fight than Calzaghe vs Manfredo but I think a fighter like MAnfredo class would be a step up and would be a good Barometer to see were Green is headed if anywere..

Also I think people are a little more cautious about Building up a fighter especially after many feel Jeff Lacy was Overhyped(I dont feel that way I think Jeff will be fine) but atleast Jeff has proven his power, chin and heart against good comp... Green still has too
