But I'm not buying that for a second.

Watching him at his confident, brash best it's simply unbelievable I've always felt his performance against Robinson was his greatest ever and it really was a clinic.

His reflexes were even faster than Roy Jones and floyd Mayweather imo.

Don't believe me? Go and watch for yourself.

This kid really had it all. Unfortunately his ego and arrogance became his downfall.

But man could he fight!
Iagree mate - I don't believe all this crap about him being all hype, I had the pleasure of going to watch the guy and he was amazing. He lost to an all time great - no shame in that - only shame is that he didn't have the sack to come back. He would've beaten any fighter out there except MAB and Morales
