    Curious to know what your thoughts are on Sunny Edwards. Seen some of his fights and he is a skilled pure boxer with nice movement. Even though he lacks any KO power he does have sublime boxing skills and elusiveness to get him far. Can you see him beating the top fighters of Flyweight and moving up to Super Flyweight at some point? Him moving up to Super Flyweight will be another nice addition to an extremely stacked division.

    I watched that fight where the guy clearly took off and landed like a jet trying a right hander. Sunny doesn't seem to have much power but it's refreshing to see a British Boxer who prefers to not get hut by every punch coming his way.

    Just watched his latest fight against Muhammad Waseem. He looked pretty decent, although his lack of a KO power may come back and bite him in the ass.

    Sunny Edwards is slowly making a name for himself. He's a skilled fighter and a hard fight for anyone around his weight class.

    Looks pretty ordinary from the short clips I saw. Clincher with an ugly, awkward style.

    To each their own, Edwards is loud mouthy POS but I won't deny his skills. He's definitely not on anyone's P4P list but I give him a good shot at being the man in his division. There's been talks about a fight between him and Bam Rodriguez. That's a very interesting fight to be made.

    Sunny is a great elusive boxer, hopefully, he grows into his man’s strength and develops some power to stop boxers from coming forward so easily

    Edwards just fought against Andres Campos in the UK today. He’s got a deplorable personality and tries too hard to be the next Hamed but he is skilled despite being feather fisted. I really want to see Edwards and Bam Rodríguez go at it soon.

    Never Seen Sunny Edwards UNTIL This Video...

    Excellent REFLEXIVE Defensive & Counterpunching Skills...Dude's FULLY Grasped the "Manly Art of Self Defense"; Hit and NOT Get Hit...Seems to Be an ACCURATE Puncher...The LACK of KO's Likely Stems from the Fact Edwards DOESN'T Quite Turn His Punches Over As They Land...When He Connects, It's Like He's Knocking on a Door vs. TURNING the Shot So the Knuckle Portion of the Glove Makes Contact...

    Not That Sunny Edwards Morphs Into Tank Davis Via This Minor Adjustment, But He'd Have MORE Than 4 KO's in 20 Bouts, That's for Sure...

    Bam vs Edwards looks to be official. Another great fight added for this year. I think it’s a tough battle for both of them.

    I think it’s over for Sunny Edwards. Bam took his soul.

    Yafai was more impressive as an amateur to me

    Edwards was touted as some slick boxer but the times I've seen him he just stands there taking punches

    Shocking to see how physically declined he has become....looks aged, bald, probably drinking.
