And his jab was terrible in every fight previous. It was either too stiff, he threw it flatfooted or it came one at a time.

His jab just looked so good tonight, it's like he's been working with the jab his whole career. Very impressive showing. A lot of people were quick to jump off the wagon (I was never really on), but with the type of improvement he showed tonight, he'll be on the fast track to a title shot again soon.

I would love to see him fight Cintron.
CC#767 amat nice assesment.... Valid points....

His jab was apparent here and thats good. Now can he do this with some top level contenders?

At best it says that he is not near Judah or Cotto's level yet.

I agree he has won his last 4 fights but the competition of the last 3 weren't even on Cosme Rivera's kind of level
