Omari Jones is back in action this weekend in boxing and is thought to be a solid prospect in America at the moment.
Sure, he had a good career for team USA in the amateurs not long ago.
But as a pro that doesn’t mean it will work out for him.
That’s up to boxing to decide as a sport pending how his fights are and how impressive they are.
He can’t scrape by low level opposition, he has to keep improving and look to put in good fights and stoppages and boxing displays, all the time.
Some things to consider ahead of this weekend’s latest fight for him — in terms of amateur success and pro success:
- Amateur success provides strong technical base.
- Many Olympic boxers achieve professional success.
- Transition challenges include pro power and styles.
- Jones shows positive early professional indicators.
- Olympic experience aids mental preparation.
- Not every decorated amateur succeeds professionally.
- Jones height skill and power support adaptation.
- Measured step-ups aid successful transition.
- Early record and development are promising.
- Outlook favorable with continued progress.
He is expected to win this weekend in a solid fight.
One thing we are seeing at the moment is he is carrying much power with him from amateurs to pros.
That is a solid sign for him that the pros suit him — Omari Jones dropped an opponent with a jab not long ago.
Let’s see how he gets on this weekend.
