I'm calling it now, i think this guy is going to be an ATG. Stellar amateur career, and his style is made for the pro's! This guy is a beast! Excellent boxer, counter puncher and offensive puncher! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMWkkc3v1bI&feature=fvw Enjoy!
you should visit bigbone's thread on him... i agree along w/ a lot of posters here tho :good edit to say: well atg is pushing it...but he has a huge upside...i'll agree with that
I just think he is the most complete fighter to come into the sport in years. Boxing ability, KO power in both hands, chin, ring smart and a terrific will to win.
he's got all the tools thats for damn sure. it will be intersting to see what division he settles in at b/c he is a big mw already
I agree, stupid thing to sat about the amatuers, but really rate this guy! think he will settle in the middleweight, as he is only 5 9", so think super mw could be to big
So that makes him crap then? And how can you hate southpaws? There unique, and very difficult to box against if you're orthadox
he should move up quick if he stays at mw....not a whole after pav (not counting pw b/c i don't know what weight to put him at even tho he's the ring #3)
Korobov looks like the real deal. I think they can move him along fairly quickly. He does not look like he needs 4 or 5 years of developmental fights. I can imagine him being ready for a title shot at 160 in 2 years.
Yeah i agree, think he would need to move up to smw just for the competition. I think he could move up well there as he is a great boxer and if he carrys his power with them then he could be devastating. Potential for Korobov vs Abraham in the future, what a fight that would be if Korobov keeps improving per se
