Highly-touted Eastern European and Central Asian busts.

Dmitry Kudryashov.
26(25)-6(3).
Entertaining to watch because most times, someone is getting KTFO. Absolute glass canon.

 

Finally! I couldn't remember his name. I even gave ChatGPT some letters I thought were familiar but I still didn't find it.

 

I had to do a who fought who on boxrec before I finally found it.

Did have power though(and it carried late) and was offensively pretty solid for a big HW. Biggest issues were mental for him the talent was definitely there.

Kudryashov is in talks to join BKFC.

 

He had his chances just wasn't that good.

 

He could be the ultimate what if?

 

Kid Diamond Raimkulov was a complete bust. From memory, maybe early 2000's. Based in the US, apparently unbeatable in the gym. Had his chances but couldn't pull the trigger on fight nights. Evgen Khytrov should have done more. Matt Korobov should have done a lot more, not necessarily his fault but still. Mohammed Abdulaev looked the goods but ran into Cotto.

 

Perfect comeback warm up fight for Joshua.

 

Getting beaten by steroid pumped Miller didn't help.

 

Kudryashov vs Arlovski would actually probably be surprisingly competitive. Arlovskis fast hands and clinch work might carry him to victory. Beating Kudryashov at this stage would be better than avenging losses to Datsik or Kharitonov. Although 100% down for any of the three matchups.

 

Kudryashov v Arlovski would be good to see.

Me too bro. He looked like a monster. I was fearing for Usyk.

 

The BKFC is like the seniors tour in golf!

 

Their heavyweight champions when they won the title:
Arnold Adams - 33
Chase Sherman - 30
Joey Beltran - 38
Arnold Adams - 36
Alan Belcher - 39
Mick Terrill - 40
Ben Rothwell - 43
Andrei Arlovski - 47

They just keep getting older and older.
