Jai Tapuloa Opetaia vs. David Kieran Nyika & Justis Pieter Huni vs. Shaun Potgieter RBR

Could maybe question the quality second tier opposition below Briedis (with the exception of Massey), but he's dealt with them in the manner in which you'd expect him to deal with that level of opponent.

 

I personally think he's got power and is decent but I dont see some future ATG just now. He may prove me wrong. But he's like a sruiserwieght vic darchynian. Usyk should be next. and he'll lose to him and look bad.

 

That's to be seen
It would be a challenge for Usyk anyway

 

I'm at work. How does Jai look? I wasn't initially a fan, but he's won me over.

 

yep. He's very very good dont get me wrong. And im not some connoisseur. But I dont quite buy into the megahype. He's entertaining and can bang and is a good combination puncher..

 

Wicked BRAWL that , G'wn Jai , hope David is recovering well in the Sheds , as a precaution maybe an overnight stay in the hospital is required,
Moving on up I'm a long time fan of Jai but he needs to be cleaning out the Cruiserweights before any tall of Usyk is being suggested imo.

 

Dave Nyika will become a champion one day and who knows, in 4 yrs we might see a rematch.

 

Jai Oppenheimer.

Detonator.

 

Despite ending in 4R with a KO loss, I have a feeling Nyika may have left a good impression for future fights at the least.

Obviously Opetaia was a step too fast and he isn't/shouldn't be fighting anytime soon, but around the end of the year I hope he can get on a decent card against a decent ranked opponent, I think his first 3R made it worth watching again.

 

He got a clear decision against Briedis ( not without troubles I agree, but nobody boxed Briedis like this during so many rounds). Not to mention that Briedis is a guy that arguably had a draw against Usyk

 

He fights nothing like darchynian, wtf?

 

Jai is certainly knocking on the door now... Other than ramirez there is nothing for him there its a dead division. Either usyk boils down to cruiser or they meet at heavyweight. its a no brainer
