He looks fucking garbage. Obviously he would slap the shit out of most of us on here, but in terms of operating as a professional he looks crap. He has been hyped online now for over 2 years and has yet to have a professional fight.

He pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit GBH with intent and a firearm charge in February 2011. Even by our soft standards, I find it a bit hard to believe that he is due to be released having done less than 2 years inside.

Even assuming he is about to come out, we will have a 27 year old with what looks to be fairly average power for a heavyweight, with poor technique and no proper sparring or coaching in the past 2 years. Hmm...

And sparring...he looks better in this at the start, throws a couple of decent uppercuts and body shots, but is clearly putting full power into every punch of a sparring session and let's face it not really rocking the black lad much. After less than 2 minutes he is throwing wide, looping haymakers some of which land and again have little effect.

He'd spark me out quick sharp, but I don't see much to be getting excited about.

Right he was sentenced in April 2011 to a 3 and 5 year sentence for the two crimes, to run concurrently. So basically 5 years. Even on good behaviour he must surely be doing 2.5 years, which would mean he won't be out until October of this year.

I could well be wrong...but it would be unusual for someone to get out having done less than half their time.
