Finding that hook to the body elevated him from a likable fringe contender into a very dangerous man.
solid skills, solid power, solid stamina, solid chin, solid aggression, solid relentlessness. Im a fan. I think he may actually be what we were thinking Bakole was. watch how Usyk and Dubois nope the hell out of ever fighting him.
Although I do think Agit possesses legit power those punching machines is not a very good measurement of power. I mean the ishowspeed kid got a very high score and it’s just no way that that skinny little kid punches even close to a real boxer.
Agree. He’s the best heavyweight body puncher since Mike Tyson, or maybe Frazier. Based on his commitment. He’s just nasty.
as impressive as that was, what trainer sent him in there with that fight plan vs Zhang? Alright son. This guy is huge. He’s strong. He’s durable. He hits like two trucks. But he’s got no stamina. So here’s the plan — go stand right in front of him and punch him until he falls over. I expected him to go after the body. But I expected him to try to tire Zhang out while avoiding being in range of him for 3-4 rounds. Didn’t expect him to just go for it right from the start.
Zhang is effective at a certain range If you sit on his chest and are within your own punching range you can neutralise alot of your opponents advantages. If Zhang suddenly started taking a step backward (putting himself at his own punching range), setting his feet and throwing the straight left then it could have been "Bye Bye Sleep Tight" for Kabayel. Some guys can make an adjustment on the fly and some cannot
As long as you’re able to negate that though, and most top level guys with decent footwork can, it’s not like Zhang is quick enough to catch you. By the time his concrete boots take that step back anyone with decent footwork will have moved back to double the distance and avoid one of Zhang’s bombs. Sure, Zhang has power but his overall boxing chops are overblown. He’s a one-trick pony and Kabayel is classes above him and was able to deal with Zhang pretty easily really.
