Next big time welterweight to challenge the best, not so fast. Jones is super fast @ 5'10".  He might get chased out of the division before he gets the chance to embaress the likes of Berto or Mosely.  Seen this kid fight at the Blue Horizon, he is the real deal.  They don't call him "MJ" for nothing.  If you have had the pleasure of seeing this kid fight, tell me what you think.  Limited video on the web but you can see his skills.

Yes, Mike Jones is gifted. I've told people about him many times that the thing will be if he can progress rapidly as a fighter. He is too sloppy at times. But so was a champion like Kelly Pavlick very sloppy early in his career and now he was a very polished offensive attack. But he will have his shot, I just hope he doesn't fall like another philly fighter named Will Taylor who was in the same shoes as Jones about 10 years ago.
