AS gothenaki suggested, JP does get a little of the 'red mist' at times, and this is something KB has been working on.
The 'red mist' moments are testament of how much JP has to learn, as we know its all about staying calm in those heated exchanges, especially when you're on the receiving end!
I do believe KB is good enough to take JP to a title shot, the relationship works well and there is definite improvement happening.
JP needs to keep fighting guys ranked between 15 - 30, they need to hand-picked and they need to be experienced, over the hill durable guys. He needs rounds under his bout and he needs to learn off these guys.
As for Leapai and Meehan, these need to be 3-4 fights away, and they do need to happen. He will beat these guys well and would probably do it today, but a couple more fights first would be the ideal before he fought these two guys.
...And for the record, he ain't gonna learn squat off the Fujimoto fight!!
