But I can definitely tell he fights differently.
Do you know any more specifics about his amateur career?
I didn't really follow him or anything but I think this was 2006 and he was either a returning National Golden Gloves winner or he won it that year. Maybe both. I got beat the second day so I went back home before the tournament concluded. But it surprised me because no one was talking about this kid and to me he was clearly the most talented in the tournament. But thats all I got I wish I knew more.
