"The boy needs a better trainer. I think his awareness is good and of course his speed and recovery are top notch. Sadly, grassroots sport development in Nigeria is poor. I hope he gets the opportunity he deserves. RT."
@WeakLink8 commented:
"His movement (body and leg) is near perfect for sure. He needs a better trainer to work on his hands."
@TayoObinaike commented:
"Good stuff but the girl had a much better Jab. The boy will be dangerous in the clinch but from range he loses badly. However, he is young and can be groomed but great work."
