    Interesting fighter. Was totally ignorant of him until the Dib fight.

    Should hunt the Thompson fight, that's a forgotten classic. Think I had that as my 2013 FOTY (it was either that or Eto Vs Porpramook)

    >_> been so long since I looked at the front page!

    Having mentioned Koki Eto...he deserves one of these...he's the Human Highlight Reel of the SGS Gym!

    Miura pure action fighter. Miura, Inoue, Matthysse, and GGG are quickly becoming fan favorite, can't miss fights. Their fights becoming like car wrecks, you know it's horrifying, but you can't turn away. Oh yea, Kov too. Salido, Martinez, or Vargas would make great fights!

    He wins all the matchups you named IMO.

    But EVGENY wins by hustle/grit! Right? No? :( you can do it EVGENY! Just stay out the way of that 8 inch bottle rocket of a straight left...somehow.

    I told you a few months ago I was going to do one on Eto but I forgot, I have so many lined up in my head. I'll move Koki up the list a little.:thumbsup

    I hate to break it to you Duckler but Evgeny is going lose to Lee Selby this month.

    Nope, 50-0 (12 KOs) the dream.

    Sorry my memory resembles a...very holey thing v_v

    Talking about great match ups...Eto Vs Kogawa that would be ultra-violence :D

    They call Selby The Welsh Mayweather for a reason He's too slick for the Mexican Russian. For the record I like Evgeny and I think he beats most second tier Featherweights but he definitely has a ceiling.

    Even putting my unhealthy obsession with him aside I think Evgeny decisions Selby.

    I'm hoping he does, I am not a fan of Selby's style:bart But..... my gut tells me Selby.
