I have NEVER bought into the Green hype. A tiny bit at the very end, the Codrington KO was obviously awesome but after that, no.
So in summation, I think Green is going to do so much talking that he will get himself a shot at a top 10 guy and almost assuredly he will falter. It's already happened once, 10% or 100% of your colon, it's a common reoccurence with him.
In his most recent match, his knockout of DeLeon was solid. I think Green's showing may actually have helped in land a big fight. The other big names won't back out of fighting him now and he is first in line as an alternate for the Super Six. I agree, however, that his next fight needs to be a step up in competition: Bute, Andrade, Bika, or in the Super Six.
And don't forget, Green prepared for Oganov and fought Simms, an undefeated fighter on two weeks notice.
