    ...someone who is 2-1-1 in his last fight. The guy lost all 8 rounds in his fight against Zuri Lawrence.

    I've not really seen this guy fight. What's the lowdown? I know he beat Williams etc but saw highlights of that and it was so long ago I can barely remember how this guy fights.

    He's a great worker but seems to blow out his arse after the 8th but keeps pushing. I think he is a bit lucky he hasn't met a heavyweight recently who can match his work rate. Pianeta was lucky to get the Draw off him as he died off big time towards the end.

    I don't think he deserves the shot but he is there. One thing Sos will bring is non stop pressure but no real bite or thought to his work. I think Vitali will mess him up pretty bad

    Sounds like we can expect another Vitali-Peter type fight?

    Non stop pressure means Peter or Arreola part 2 if his chin stands up.

    You've got to have a decent chin to take Vitalis punches.

    To be fair, he tried to make a fight with Haye then Valuev. Neither wanted to fight him.

    Yeah i think he is made for Vitali at the minute. Not 100% sure about his chin i might be making it up but did Williams not have him on the ropes hurt?? Can't think about the Pianeta fight either.

    I'll take a Vitali mid round massacre

    Isn't Zuri Lawrence the HW without a single KO to his name?

    Calvin Brock knocked him the **** out once if I remember rightly

    He retired didn't he? think he had eye trouble or something, he had some sort of degree to fall back on

    Just had a quick read on him, went for surgery on his eye and it ended up worse being blind in it. At least he had something to fall back on.
