Without a doubt, by far, the best of three IMO. What's more, is he's clearly both the most ambitious and the most entertaining IMO. A fast handed, aggressive southpaw, both very skilled and very sharp, but still fairly easy to hit. He looked absolutely amazing in his final - although not as good against the clearly superior opposition before that - and should definitely be one to keep your eye on. A very good fighter and a humble, reserved guy. I followed him through the amateurs for about a year prior to the Olympics (although I never got to see him live) and now I'm really looking forward to how he adapts to the pros. What do you guys think of him, if you've seen any?
As a side note, he has an official loss against Sunny Edwards when they were both novices, I don't know if it was controversial at the time, but I certainly thought Edwards lost.
saw him in the olympics and he seems more talented than the one who roman gonzalez beat the fuck out of
I saw a bit of him in the Olympics and yeah he looked very talented. Better than Kal (who I actually rated highly early on in his career too), I try not to get too carried away these days but unless there's some major chank in his armour I see no reason he shouldn't have a successful career.
Wouldn't be surprised. He certainly seemed way stronger than his opponent and attached like a pitbull.
His reynoso affiliation certainly builds suspicion , especially after jaime munGEARa pissing dirty Rodriguez is also managed by pacquiao
Eddy Reynoso says he will no longer train or associate with fighters if he can’t oversee their nutrition and supplements. Jaime Munguia and Francisco Rodriguez failed drug tests earlier this year. Munguia trained with Reynoso while Rodriguez was sponsored by him.
The WBC have now overturned Francisco Rodriguez Jr’s win over Galal Yafai to a no contest, reinstated Yafai as WBC ‘interim’ champion and ordered an immediate rematch because Rodriguez Jr tested positive for Heptaminol after the fight. They have ruled that Rodriguez accidentally ingested the banned substance as he previously reported the use of an over-the-counter energy booster which he was unaware included it. The WBC have made a request to the BBBofC to officially recognise their decision to rule the fight a no-contest and placed Rodriguez Jr under a 12-month probation period with random testing.
