Huni is one of the best heavyweights today in terms of skill.

Agreed, if Huni had a decent chin and more pop he would easily be top 5 I reckon.

 

If he is so good, then why did he ****ing lose last time around?

 

He took the fight on around 4 weeks notice with a shoulder injury half way across the world. He should have pulled out but the money was too much so he didn’t.

 

Was pretty unimpressed by his performance against Kevin Lerena especially in relation to Okolie.

Huni has some potential but we just haven't seen that much of him really.

 

Because of his lack of power, if he had more he would have won before then and Wardley wouldn't have had the chance to land that shot.

 

I'd say his main flaw is his glass chin, but his lack of power is a problem as well. Every other department, he's a world-level fighter, but these 2 attributes are essential at the top of the pro ranks. He could probably get away with one if he had the other, but combined, it is a problem and will cause him major issues, talented guy though technically.

 

He's still just 26 and had a horror run with injuries. He will probably be one of those guys that walks on to a bomb every now and then, but his speed and technical boxing ability are exceptional.

 

Seems to have a suspect chin and can't punch, not really the ingredients for making it at world level as a heavyweight.

 

Skills only take you so far at HW. You need good power and/or a good chin. Fraid Huni fails on both counts.

 

10 weeks notice wouldnt have fixed his lack of chin

 

Shaky chin and crap power is a terrible combo. Lewis got chinned twice but he had massive power. You gotta have that massive power to deter people. Even then, look at Wlad, he had to employ a negative style to make up for his lack of chin. His power alone didn't prevent him from getting ktfo.

 

He can definitely improve on and help mitigate his lack of power and chin, but I think it will come at the cost of some of his style.

Look at Usyk or Parker for example, they have showed more power recently, but at the expense of movement.

 

Not only that he was winning on the cards prior to that stoppage. He could've won if not for that right hand that he walked into
