Deontay Wilder is 6'7 and still hasn't broken 230 yet and he's older than Negron. IMO Negron needs to build up his physique a bit while he's young so he can get comfortable fighting at heavyweight.

Re: Carlos Negron moving to heavyweight
I've seen Carlos also. It's exciting to see a young, Puerto Rican heavyweight prospect to be sure. But yeah, I agree with El Terrible. I would've wanted him to have a couple more fights at cruiser. But his trainer said in interviews that he's being very careful in bringing up Carlos and having him build some muscle mass, particularly in the legs and back. Let's see what happens. From what I've seen, Carlos is a bit raw, and should probably work on his defense a little bit.

Re: Carlos Negron moving to heavyweight
I've had my eye on him for a while but I don't think he has grown into HW yet. He never weighs anything close to the CW limit so 215 could be adding unnatural weight if you ask me.

Re: Carlos Negron moving to heavyweight
i agree, i've been talking about Negron for a while now, he has good speed and a good variety of punches, but has a leaky defense and still needs some work with that and foot work, if they take their time with him and let him finish growing, and put on that weight gradually instead of bulking up from on fight to the other i think it could do more bad than goodOriginally Posted by rjj tszyu
