The former CJ Parker just keeps getting better and better.

Every time you think he has peaked, Robinson comes out with a great singles bout that somehow outdoes his last. He did it again in April's NEVER Openweight war with Hirooki Goto. In their first bout, Juice was an enthusiastic but in-over-his-head rookie who showed spirit against the violent artist, but was largely reduced to hope spots. He was a lot more competitive this time, pushing Goto shockingly closer to defeat, before falling short once more.

Such is Juice's progression. His creeps further up the card with each passing month, and his ceiling his still to be defined. Victory would be shocking, but expect Robinson to push even closer to his upper limit in the G1.
