No one can deal Virgil’s power, he’s a phenomenon, if anyone can hit him, they’ll wish they hadn’t, Virgil just won’t stop hitting extremely hard for more rounds than people than handle… I hope he doesn’t fall into Naseem’s self destruction of reputation and money… “ Self sacrifice and belief give you the tools for greatness, both can be easily mislaid, like any special gift we’re given, when they’re taken for granted”…
