JR is not doing anything too different than Sr. I mean I don't know if he is going to be 101-1 (roughly) like his father when he fought ODH. But he will have his big fights in due time.
Let's face it he is young and fragile. As much as I, like the rest of the people on this site, want to see him pour his guts out on the table with a high profile boxer, it's not gonna happen anytime soon. He si building himself up. You gotta remember after he goes for a title shot, he has got to defend it. How long before some lucky left hook nobody knocks his block off.

Having said that.. I think he is going to do well in the future. He has a hell of a left hook, and a pretty good chin from what I have seen.
