    Oh, those two should have a ten fight series and just fight nobody except each other for the rest of their careers. :icon_popcorn:

    I hope that holds true when the inevitable showdown between Maksim Vlasov and Kevin Lerena takes place..

    I'm not a fan of Troyanovsky but even before tonight I would've been confident of him sparking Indongo in a rematch. I'd be super confident of Josh Taylor, Imam, Relikh, and even 11-0 Ergashev sparking Indongo out to name but a few. Anyone at LWW who can punch a bit is Indongo's glass jaw's worst nightmare. He just cannot take a pop on the whiskers.

    Troyanovsky is the biggest puncher in the division, loads of 2nd round KO's. I've no doubt he'd knock Indogno out in the first or second round, the African is not an unknown quantity like he was then.

    I think it would be a great fight, I don't know if I'd pick dead eyed beast to win, but with his power and volume he would be in the fight.

    Yeah Troyanovsky's power is not in question he can definitely hit really hard.

    Baranchyk wouldn't see the 4th round.

    I have to ride with the Beast of course. I've come this far with him. But Prograis is truly a tornado. Very difficult fight for Baranchyk.

    I hope Postol quits ducking. I'd favor the Werewolf to bowl him over - and you know what? I'd favor him to do the same to Baranchyk.

    Yes he made some improvements vs. Petrov relative to his consistently flawed recent performances, tightening up his defense coming forward and not throwing so wide, but there were still moments where Petrov nailed him cleanly with multiple shots. If he weren't a light-hitting 135lber those combos might have impacted Baranchyk more - and I think we can safely assume that Prograis hits 50x harder than Petrov..

    David Ayrapetyan isn't Russian, just FYI. He moved there in his youth (family were refugees) and fought on their national team in the amateurs, but he's Azerbaijani by birth and Armenian by blood.

    To be fair Ivan knew that they guy couldn't hurt him so he took a few to land a few, and fighters raise their game against punchers. I do agree that Prograis is a serious problem for Baranchyk, but Baranchyk is a good body puncher and will need to go to Prograis's body. Looping shots might be the way to go against Prograis.

    Checked Twitter and Youtube for a fan video of the Trey Morrison fight and nothings popped up yet.... Hopefully one will surface within the next couple days.
