Really, he has good speed and athleticism but he is negating that by being so robotic. Joval is just a solid fighter. Very solid, it definitely takes an A game to beat him and it's probably a step up for McGirt too. Very odd choice in opponent, but if he wins then it'll go a long way to erasing the bad taste from his alst fight out of his mouth.
Honestly for Joval I am very impressed with how well he still boxes and reacts at his age.
