    Talk about T-Rex arms, is this real or has boxrec failed us?

    Find it hard to believe myself?

    And yet he'd brutally assault and knock Chris Eubank Jr. unconscious.

    My money would be firmly on Jr, what does this guy even bring to the table, pretty much a clone of Spike imo

    I don't mind if I'm wrong, because I do like his fighting style. He seems a bit lazy for my liking and he's way too hittable. Like spike he doesn't mind taking one to give one, which is always entertaining.

    Low work rate wont work against a Jr, maybe we haven't seen the best of Khytrov yet? I will be pleasantly surprised if I'm wrong because I do like him, just how can you still be developing with such an extensive am's background?

    He has T-Rex arms and he can crack a skull with those T-Rex arms.

    He doesn't take one to land one as much as you think, he's good at slipping shots, he has very subtle head movement, he's far better than O'Sullivan, he doesn't have a low work rate, and the only reason he's looked bad occasionally is because he's taking fights against slick fighters who aren't easy to look good against, Brinson is underrated, Coley is defensively very sound, the only reason he survived is because he held on for dear life for the last 4 rounds, Melendez is tough as hell and he beat him down with ease. He's getting work in against hard to look good against opponents now, so he'll have all the kinks works out when he gets his big fight.:deal

    Doubt it. Khytrov is a one dimensional slugger and Eubank has never been knocked out.

    That's pretty ****ing good for a guy with 12 fights, what is Spence on number 19 and he's just getting around to taking on killers like Lo Greco and Van Heerden.:lol:

    Give me a ****ing break with the high standard that is set for EE fighters and incredibly low one set for US and UK fighters.

    Khytrov has regressed so much, I'm not even interested in his career for the time being, just painful to watch. Hopefully he starts to turn things around, he has got the raw goods regardless of what anyone says.

    :lol: I'm the same height and my reach is 13 inches longer.
