Agit Kabayal vs Nelson Hysa set for January 10 in Oberhausen

I honestly can't tell if you are joking or not. Hysa definitely has some power, but he also has flaws and is aged. If Kabayel loses to Hysa he probably isn't ready for a title shot.

 

So he gets fed to Agit. I guess it makes sense. HE needs an impressive-on-paper-but-low-risker, and that is what guys like Hysa are created for

 

I guess it could be worse, could be Alessio Bisutti

 

If he's dragging his feet for Parker, and can't see any path to Usyk-Kabeyal. He doesn't even have the cache with Brits that Parker does. The only way I can see it coming off is if Turkyi wants it, but I don't see that he does.

 

A few years back Hysa went the 6 round distance with 49 year old Danny Williams and 40 year old Pavel Sour. He's never been past 6 rounds or fought anyone above that very low level. He had an extensive amateur career and is now 41 himself. Pulev stopped him in the amateurs.

Kabayel will be a 1/10 favourite and will win easily if he takes it remotely seriously.

 

Kabayel, Hysa had to take a 50 year old Danny Williams the distance!

 

Exactly.

Kabayel makes his return to bumfighting in Germany.

Utterly uninspiring - and hopefully a one-off rather than a return to wasting time as he did after Chisora.

 

Hysa won’t get a title shot even if he KOd Kabayel in round 1.
How much he can realistically make in this fight? I would be surprised if the total purse is more than 300k. Don’t think anyone will pay PPV for this event, and don’t think big German TV channels will give up airtime for this. Maybe DAZN may subsidise? Who knows. The 10k arena they may end up filling with Albanian/kurd kids for 10euro per ticket but this doesn’t feel like a world champion trajectory.

Very disappointing match up after a year of not fighting.

 

If you think about it this is all the WBAs fault.

Parker is fighting Wardley cause the WBA matched Wardley with Huni for their interim belt.

Kabayel is fighting Hysa because the WBA ranked him in their top 10.

Hysa is 23-0 I guess hes nominally qualified for a tilte shot. People shouldn't be calling him a bum but it is an underwhelming matchup.

I think the other Albanian dude is probably better.

 

There's activity in the HW division for once and of course fickle boxing fans find a way to ***** and moan.

 

I mean, when you're taking a fight comparable to one taken by a shot fraud with a career defined by ducking and one taken by a fossilized irrelevance desperately trying to avoid retiring...

TBF though, Kabayel's career is mostly dross - he'd been on a much better run recently, but he spent years on bums in Germany, it's not like this is anything new even if it is extremely disappointing.

 

Why does anybody support this creature.

And Zhang, shame on you. Thanks for the Joyce years, but you could have stopped all this, slob ogre. He was standing in front of you all night and you couldn't punch him in the head more than once?

 

Oh, pardon me for wanting to see a guy who looks like he might be decent take a remotely competitive fight...

Nothing fickle about it - if **** fights don't get called out, fighters think it's okay to keep making them...
And it's not like Kabayel hasn't got form for taking on only bums for years at a time, so it's particularly relevant with him - he's far from the only one, when entire careers have been defined by wasted opportunity and hiding from challenges, it's entirely reasonable to not want another fighter to do the same.

 

Folks , of course this is a bum fight - but don,t blame agit !

More valuable opponets tend to keep their ammo instead of risking a loss for nothing . Agit also is not very motivated to go life and death for nothing . As long as usyk keeps on sitting on the belts no real eliminator fights or world title fights will happen .

This "bum fighting" is a desperate try of agit to stay active and present anything at all to the hw division .
