Paul Spadafora is a great young
Lightweight champion. Spadafora still has a lot to learn and will only
get better, which is pretty scary. Spadafora has very good hand speed and,
of course, great boxing skills, but the only thing he lacks is a good knockout
punch. Spadafora has basically no power. But as he is in a fairly
weak division, Spadafora can begin to dominate and hopefully try to unify
some of the titles. Now that Floyd Mayweather Jr. and are others moving
up into his division, Spadafora better start getting ready for some great
battles. Taking on the Mayweather/Castillo winner would be a great next
step. |
