    Even if he turns out to be a bust his power alone is a serious threat to every HW on the planet and I believe he can take out anyone he can land on.

    He hurts guys with even glancing blows. Definitely has power.

    I think I saw like one body-shot though in that entire sequence.

    Hopefully that is just due to the particular sequences being shown.

    I'd back him to be the one that emerges as the next dominant HW on the block. He's not only massively powerful but he's tough as nails and looks to genuinely enjoy putting a hurting on people. Scary combination.

    Dubois strikes me as a bit of a hypejob, and Hrgovic just doesn't impress me. The Mak would beat both IMO.

    He's mostly a head hunter. Got a very good uppercut though, which can often be the punch which catches more elusive guys out.

    That twitch is really bad though. He'll actually do it in the middle of punch exchanges. Can't be good.

    I really like that uppercut from hell of his. He's sneaky with it and doesn't telegraph it at all and even though he's obviously a huge unit of a man when he lets the shots fly he's not as slow as many think he is.

    Yeah, he seems very good at varying his speed on shots to catch guys out that get lulled into thinking he's some slow moving hulk. Like the way he measures guys up with his left before chopping down at them with that short overhand right, or that brutal uppercut. Really devastates guys that get caught against the ropes.

    You're right, I'm in the UK and I can drive to a handful of clubs within a few miles.
    I could even walk to a couple if I wasn't so lazy lol

    I love Mahkmudov and want to see him do as well as he can but he's not ever going to emerge or develop into the world's dominant HW.

    Jarrad Anderson is going to be a phenomenal HW.

    His uppercut is without doubt one of the best in the game right now. And he is DEAD-accurate with it and throws with a force of 600 lbs power clean.
