    I get the impression that he might struggle if he comes up against a natural 135lber who is still firing back after about 8 rounds.

    I'm not sure how he would mentally deal with it.

    Like when he fought St Clair i got the impression that if he was fighting a natural 135lber who could hit, he might have been up shit's creek.

    Same as when he fought that Drizlane or whatever he was called....that big french guy.

    Having said that.....when he really needed it, he pulled some shots out of his arse when Limond had him hurt. Same as Saturday night, he pulled it out the bag when he needed to.

    He has tremendous finishing ability. Offensively he is breathtaking at times. He needs work on his defence and the public also need to accept that it's ok for him to go 12 rounds. He can't blow everyone out early.

    His chin seems ok to me. The Limond shot was a temple shot, so that has no bearing on his chin in actual fact. His power seems good, his speed is unreal. His defence needs work.

    I think in about 3 or 4 fights he is ready for a world title. There's nobody at 135 who i'd be worried about, but there's no need to rush imo.

    It's also nice to see that he is progressing much better than some of the UK fans had predicted and hoped earlier in this thread

    I would like it to be known that my early comment was not in fact written by me at all.
