Nico Ali Walsh doesn't float like a butterfly like his famous grandfather, but he's showing evidence with five knockouts in eight fights, that he might sting like a bee.
Ali Walsh turned professional on Aug. 14, 2021, but it wasn't clear what his goal was other than paying homage to his late grandfather,"The Greatest," Muhammad Ali. Ali Walsh had no amateur background and neither promoters nor managers were beating down his door begging to sign him.
"I'm more than happy with where I'm at right now," Ali Walsh told Yahoo Sports when asked to provide an overview of his progress 21 months into his career."I've shocked everyone by making it this far already. I'm going to continue to shock people but I'll be honest: I've kind of shocked myself. There remain plenty of skeptics about Ali Walsh's ability to handle higher level opposition. Rosenberger is 13-9-4, has won seven in a row and is, by far, the best opponent Ali Walsh will have faced. No one in his or her right mind is predicting Rosenberger to win a championship or even contend for one, but he's experienced and will provide the kind of test young fighters on the rise need.
He said after he signed with Top Rank, promoter Bob Arum warned him of the pressure he'd face, and he didn't understand it. But as he's matured and gone headlong into the boxing business, he gets it now.
