    Soft touch and all. But really surprised to see him back in the ring so soon.

    Sherman Williams is also active again after some time off. 2-0(2 ko) in 2019. Williams/Levin definitely makes sense now and I find it almost odd they never bumped heads in the late 90s-00s. This is definitely a match that old a select few obsessive boxing fans like myself @IntentionalButt @theanatolian and @Serge would appreciate but here's to hoping the stars align and it gets made lol.

    How about a tournament? Williams, Levin, Julius Long, Bakthtov and maybe convince Oloukun and Airich to decide the best HW journeyman of the decade lol.

    I like that idea. With a large cash prize to boot. I mean.... This would be better than the last man standing tournaments over in Australia.

    If you want to make eight for the tourney how about Mazakin and Zack Page?

    Machimana and Dominick Guinn (who was once a contender but mostly enhancement talent in the last ten)?

    Wow, his fourth granite-chinned opponent in a row. I have never seen Hernandez hurt. Stoppage vs Ajagba was awful - he wasn't stunned at all

    What do you think if a rematch happens with Hunter, can he win the second fight if he doesn't get injured?

    I think he can beat Hunter in the rematch, but he would need some experience against decent boxers with a good footwork. Kevin Johnson prefers to stay on the ropes nowdays, Mariusz Wach has arguabdly the sturdiest chin of all time but his defence and footwork are nonexistant and he is slow as hell.

    Hemi Ahio will be facing Joshua Tufte on the same card that Junior Fa will be facing Devin Vargas on on November 15 in Salt Lake City. Patrick Mailata also added to the card.

    Ahio should end that one quickly..
    Fa on the other hand either ends it early or labors with Vargas who's a decent journeyman. Fa BARELY beat Guinn last time out.

    Yes he does have the ability to stink out a joint (Craig Lewis, Hunter Sam, Luis Pascual etc.). Having said that, he is setting himself up for bigger fights next year if he defeats Vargas. I don't think he beats anyone on the top 30 maybe even top 40 but staying undefeated and having a ranking with an alphabet organisation gets you places.
