3 rounds, but advanced after 2. I guess 2 is all that was needed. Wonder what specifically happened, and who he sparred. I read they were 'name' guys available. Good Job, Pooh.

Its about the exsposure you a whole. He's never been focused always had easy fights so it was good for him to take his jokes on the road.
