Xander Zayas TKO-3 Larry Fryers: Fryers (11-4, 4 KO) gave his usual solid effort, but the 18-year-old Zayas (9-0, 7 KO) really is looking like a star in the making so far in his pro career. Top Rank signed him at 16, which made him the youngest fighter they’ve ever signed, and when you watch him fight you can see why they had that much enthusiasm for him and still do. He’s sharp, smart, doesn’t fight like an arrogant young guy, has power. Puerto Rico has been aching for a top young boxer to actually break through and become a true top pro fighter for a while now, and Zayas might be the best current bet among pros.
