      Why doesn't Verdejo get the same hype cotto did coming up on HBO?

      I cant figure it out, but it's just not there. When cotto was on his way up, there was a lot of excitement for his career.

        Maybe they want to see if he's really "the goods" as some say. I say he is.

          He will. HBO put on a lot more fights back then. Cotto started out on the Barrera/Morales, De La Hoya/Vargas and Pac/Marquez 1 undercards. This will be the beginning of Verdejo's rise. He's only 22 and has had only 17 fights.

                I didn't see much from him yet. what's his style of boxing? I heard that he is a nice prospect I just missed out on him somehow...

                  I got some highlights in the 1st page I think... check it out!!!

                  Also... when he swings he swings with speed power & bad intentions.

                  Reminds me of another Puerto Rican fighter who is retired at the moment...

                    I'm really looking forward to seeing Verdejo. He looks like the real deal. He very well could be the best prospect in boxing right now.
