Desert Storm or fart in a sandpit ? Should he be number 1 at light welterweight ? This is the guy who refused to fight Khan saying "What if I lose then I am out the sweep-stake to fight pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao for 7.5 million dollars ?" on U.S radio. The same guy stripped of his WBC titlefor inactivity. The fighter who took 8 rounds to stop an ageing stoned Casamayor, had to resort to headbutting to beat a limited fighter in Devon Alexander and has avoided Marcus Maidana. Number 1 light welterweight and now he gets rewarded with a fight against Pacquiao. So come on enlighten me, what makes him worthy and special enough for such accolades? To me he seems limited, his defence is poor and a decent hard hitting fighter with good hand speed will expose this soon enough. He is in great condition but then so was Frank Bruno and a cut physique a great boxer does not make.
