Sherdog Prospect Watch: Boston Salmon

Unbeaten bantamweight prospect Boston Salmon carries the nickname “Boom Boom,” and just over two years into his professional mixed martial arts career, it seems safe to say he has lived up to his moniker.

Salmon boasts four knockouts among his five professional victories, two of them inside the first round. The Xtreme Couture product admits his striking prowess has garnered a lot of attention early in his career, but he feels he is far from a one-trick pony when the bell sounds.

“I feel like I’ve improved a lot,” Salmon told Sherdog.com. “I think people looked at me just as a striker at first, but with training at Xtreme Couture and the experience I’ve gotten fighting in the [Resurrection Fighting Alliance organization], I feel like I’ve become a more well-rounded fighter.
