He is another one of those guys who now hits harder than his record indicates. And he is tough as nails and has stamina. He is difficult for any fighter, including Ramirez and Taylor.

What makes you think that? I'm not knocking your post But he hasn't shown anything nor foght anyone that would make me think that! Just curious???

He has fought nobody tjjee template for Boxing rack up wins and wait for a title shot which he most likely lose then be a contender lose his first In comeback

He don't want Taylor, he wants an opponent after Taylor vacates. That makes sense. If I was a fighter at 140 damn I wouldn't want Taylor no way, no how. I would guess Prograis is the only 140ib guy who actually would want Taylor.

He had 4 KO's in his first 11 fights and now has had 4 KO's in his last 7 fights or that should have been 5 KO's in his last 7 fights considering how much damage he did to Saucedo and they should have stopped that fight. Most guys who are 25-0 with 10 KO's are feather-fisted but this guy clearly hits harder than that record shows.

Prograis (I'm hoping he sticks around at 140, he's got a nutritionist now) and Zepeda would beat Barboza but they'd be fun fights.

Barboza is solid. Was impressed with his last performance against Alex.

If Teofimo moves up to light-weterweight then there's not going to be any relinquishment!
