This prospect will be the goods!

I think he looked...well, good.


Not amazing, not eye-popping, not jaw dropping. Just plain ol' good.



Which might be a positive, since these days a fighter who looks incredible on their debut expects to be fighting for a world title before they hit double figures for bouts.


Conlan, being merely 'good', will need much more work and a good twenty fights before he steps it up the old fashioned way (and by old fashioned, I mean 90's/00's old fashioned where a fighter had about twenty building fights before a big fight/title shot. Before that it was thirty or forty fights. Fast forward a decade and it'll be Olympians going straight in for title shots on their debuts).
