    Napoles though born in Cuba is a Naturalized Mexican who to this day lives in Mexico. He is highly revered and accepted as a Mexican in Mexico.

    His name implies he is Islamic ...being black and Muslim this guy had to learn to fight, run, and pick his battles otherwise he would be dead.

    I've heard Ismayl Sillakh - Enrique Ornelas in talks on Hop-Roy 2 undercard. It can be huge step up for him.

    Aside from the racist crap (take it to the cesspool Lounge), this kid looks a good prospect. Rangy with sharp looking skills and obvious power. Have to see how he develops.

    Nah, Ismail is the Islamic name for the biblical Ishmael, son of Abraham.

    1) He's not from Russia, he's from Ukraine and there are not alot of Muslims in Ukraine.

    2) I'm sure a White Russian Orthodox man living in Turkey would be considered as Turkish as a Turkish Muslim, right?

    I met James and his brother yrs ago. James has tons of potential and with the right trainer can become a champion. He has speed and loads of power in both hands and I'm talking about the one punch fight ending type of power. Teach him defense and counterpunching he can probably beat just about anyone. He loves to trade and would get caught often early in his career only to storm back and ko the other guy.

    The Black Russian looks a decent fighter. Most of Germany's best fighters are foreign fighters as are Britain's. Isn't David Haye mixed? Kostya Tszyu was part Mongolian, Russian, and Chinese and Aaron Pryor was actually Blackanese, half African American and half Japanese? Who cares as long as he keeps on winning.:good
