    What a goddamn letdown he's turned out to be.

    I never thought he'd ascend to Trinidad level, or even Cotto level, but damn... I thought he'd at least be more promising than Danny Garcia.

    I think he's fighting Flanagan for a title soon, but his flaws have really been exposed in recent fights.

    Future P4P material he is not.

    I think he's hanging out with Joel Julio, Francisco Bojado, and Denis Boytsov

    Don't know....after that motorcycle accident I think he had one fight didn't look good....wasn't look that great before it either. Remind me of Jermain Taylor...stiff...tall...strong looking...loads up on his punches if he miss his always off balance... will ko C level fighter...but if he steps up he just can't put them away....

    I always say PR fighters need to leave PR if they want to get to that next level....too many distractions, shitty and envious people who don't want to see you do good....get your ass to Freddy Roach...or Nacho or anyone else...training home...training...home...hell live in teh gym pick up the spit bucket like rocky!

    He's got a fight on the 22nd of September against some no name after Terry Flanagan pulled out with an injury.

    But yeah he's been a let down. Seems immature and undisciplined. Oh well.

    Not at this rate. Lopez was a two division champion.

    At 135, I'd pick Easter to beat Verdejo right now.

    Maybe Verdejo is a genius....he is taking the Trinidad route(because of promoter problems). Win the title....defend it for 4-5 years against C level fighter n a few over the hill former A-B level fighters...in 2020 explode into the scene.

    He is young and stupid...why rush? How old is he? 21?.....

    He has the tools if he wants it. He'll never be Trinidad or Cotto. But he can certainly be better than DSG and Juanma.

    But he just doesn't give a fuck. He's more concerned about being young and living it up rather than dedications himself to his craft.

    He's actually got some ways to go before proving he's on Cherry Garcia's level. Probably won't make it, tbh.

    Garcia at 24 KO'd Khan.

    Verdejo at 24 has stopped... no one with a pulse.

    It's just another one of Xplosive's 'modern-day-boxers-no-one's-heard-about' threads in order to keep some 'life' into the General Forum.
