    Ive been following him since his first pro fight. He is the future of boxing. He riminsd me of a cross between young Tyson and Guzman.

    He's an outstanding prospect. Very skilled and talented. But like all prospects I'm curious to see what happens when he gets hit on the chin

    Really impressive. I think he was just flat-footed because he was so much faster than the other guy that he could get away with it. If he can take a punch he could be spectacular.

    He's no spring chicken he's had over 400 Amateur fights, and won a gold for Cuba in the Olympics. So, he should be stepping up real quick.

    The boys got some mad skills, Edwards was no world beater but he wasn't a total tomato can. I think he'll be moved pretty fast from here on out. He was supposed to face freddie Norwood until Norwood pulled out... that IMO would have been another walk through for Gamboa!

    Thanks for the fights Bean.... I was going to say he looks very sharp in the small clip, but my screen was skipping to much to get a real idea of movement and speed... And very hard to sum up a guy from watching one random round... But he didn't look like a dud by any means so i'm looking forward to checking out those other fights...

    I dont know if you guys agree but he reminds me alot of
    Juan John John Molina the way he throws his punches and how up right he is ,
    It will be interesting when he steps up as his chin is up in the air.
    ANYONE AGREE ?

    He is way better than Molina... if anything he is a RJJ version of Guzman. He is an incredible athlete... has to have the fastest hands in boxing. One thing though is he has really short legs which really limits his movement ability, but his defense is good from what I've seen... I think his reflexes are so quick that nobody is going to be able to catch him, and if he has the power he seems to have He could very well overwhelm guys like RJJ used to. Once again the only problem for me is that I like a person can get in and out super quickly, and while he has unbelievable handspeed I don't think he has the footspeed of the PBF's,leonard's,RJJ's, Ali's of the sport. Even though he is much slicker than Mosley was at lightweight I could see tall guys as he moves up give him the same troubles they did Mosley if he can't box effectively backwards or if he can't potshot.

    He's clearly faster than Molina. But that's not a bad comparison.
