the twenty-five-year-old unbeaten american featherweight prospect is currently five & zero, including three knockouts. bruce had an eleven-year amateur career, only going forty-four wins, twenty-five loses, he was the twenty twenty u.s. olympic trials champion at one hundred & twenty-five pounds. the vast experience has set shu-shu up for a great start as a professional & his style seems better suited to the paid ranks. bruce holds an amateur win over duke ragan who earned a silver medal at the tokyo olympics. he is said to have started boxing at age seven. bruce is signed with top rank who will continue to build on shu-shu’s momentum. please take a look
He’s just a face in the game. I see nothing truly special about him. He will pick up a belt or two, but I don’t see super stardom on him. He has some talent.
More impressed with Carrington each time out. Important to keep push/hype in prospective in not even 2 years pro yet but he does have a special feel to him. Top Rank is not shy about matching guys tough and their best laid plans for 125 unifications were dumped on their head watching Robeisy Ramirez upset. On a side note the WBO have dropped Robeisy completely from top 15 ???. That has to be a misprint. Unless he’s stated intent to go 130?! But Shu Shu has to be watching Ford getting a title shot and licking his chops!
Talk about timing. He shot up 3 spots in the wbo rankings the day before his fight last week :cwm13:. But have to say it’s totally warranted. Think his next couple of fights and how matched will be pretty revealing. Maybe we get a ‘now or never’ type showdown with recently deposed champ Robeisy Ramirez.
I think (hope) we might see something eventually materialize out of the upcoming Lopez v Abe card. Couple of belts on the line. Always weary of fast-tracking a guy but have the feeling 126 is about to get real busy.
Deserves it but basically the wbo left him where he was just a day prior to his last fight. If Ball goes for wba Ford as has been talked about I wonder if the wbc drops him from #1. Feels like 9th for Carrington is just prepositioning to skyrocket.
