Duke Ragan 7 fights His third fight opponents record 1-0
Troy Isley 7 fights His third fight opponent record 2-1
Torrez 3rd fight His third fight opponent record 4-1

Nice try though.
So what’s your point - you’re hoping to see Torrez in his next fight against another opponent that’s so glaringly unprofessional the referee stops the fight after the first combination landed? Torrez is done with this level. I want to see him moved up to some club-level European journeyman with a losing record but some experience that can test him just a little. For three guys coming out of the same Olympic class, I feel like I know a lot more about Isley and Ragan. I understand Top Rank’s need to protect him and bring him slow, I just hope that his next fight they’re ready to put him in there with a slightly warmer body

That's what you call lights out! The guy I remember leaving guys like this a lot was Julian Jackson. I think it was Simon Brown he knocked out and left him shadow boxing in his sleep. Disturbing and fascinating all at once.

Didn't Torrez get viciously KOd in the amateurs?

None of the 3 impresses me. Not sure any have big time PPV potential.

Agreed on PPV potential- Keyshawn Davis has the highest commercial ceiling from the Tokyo games
