    Understood but I never knew he was this awful. He looked like he'd be an easy opponent for any decent prospect.

    You just overestimated how much Rickah had left, that's all. :thumbsup: Crazy how willingly people hopped on Julius' dick. I guess just being a lanky southpaw wowed them, or else they really did invest THAT much weight to exposing that idiot Troyanovsky. (when I called years earlier when he was getting rocked by feather-fist journeyman that exactly that would happen someday)

    Like I said a while back after I scanned Indongo's Boxrec page, he fought the biggest bunch of cotton bud fists you could imagine prior to Troyanovsky. But now he's fought 3 punchers in a row and he got blasted out with ease by 2 of them and the same would've happened against Troyanovsky too had he actually taken a punch in that one.

    Prograis seems a bit open defensively but he can definitely crack.

    Prograis wants the winner of Imam vs. Rodriguez - or rather, he wants the belt they're competing for next week. (he feels it should rightfully be his)

    Not having that yet, Indongo is, was and always will be awful.

    But it confirms Prograis is up there with best at 140. Ramirez or Imam, Ramirez for me will def test him. He is a different ball park from that guy.

    Not just a terrible chin, he possesses all that height and reach and doesn't have the foggiest idea how to box tall against somebody that knows what they're doing. Prograis was able to "slide into his DM's" and land from just inside his chest, effortlessly.

    He's a gangly, awkward guy but in a manner that is a drawback, not a stylistic advantage (for the most part, at least on the world class tier)

    Yeah, that's exactly what I did actually, I was going back and forth for a few days before the match mulling over just how much Ricky had left.

    Steve Farhood currently has Viktor Postol #2 at 140lbs. :dunno

    I'm sorry, you've long been someone I respected in this industry, but you are clearly shot. Please turn in your Boxing Nerd Elite membership card, Mr. Farhood.

    You don't want to take that kind of hard rabbit punch from a guy like Prograis. The follow up left moved Indongo like he got hit by a car or something.

    I'm not an Indongo fan. He's pretty horrible. He did go to Russia though, and ruthlessly KO that undefeated Russian power puncher, while his wife looked on horrified in the front row. It was a head bouncing KO. You could hear somebody yell "tiimmmbbbeerrr" in the background.

    It'd be fun while it lasts, but Prograis would destroy Baranchyk's wild ass.

    I'd make him a solid favorite over either one.
