I have to say that I have enormous respect for his trying to go "old school" by taking a lot of fights.
I wish more fighters would do the same. After all that's what boxing is all about.

And yeah good thing Banks (from last night) didn't have much power, cause that tattoo he put on Manfredo's eye could have been him getting knocked down.

I definately see him being the working man at 168 which every division needs.

More power to him.
I think he has the ability to win a title but I don't think he will be one of those guys you remember 25 years down the line. I think he is a good fighter. Elite? He is not. I don't know how much growing room his skills have but I hope more.

CC. Nice comments!
