    What's people's thoughts on him? I reckon he looks awesome. He's too small for supermiddle but if he could get down to Middle, maybe even JuniorMiddle, he could do some serious things in his career.

    If he could get down to JuniorMiddle, keep his power and have enough gas for twelve rounds, I struggle to imagine many who'd be capable of taking 12 rounds of his left-rips with the occasional over-hand right to the kisser.

    Because he's so young he'll probably keep growing meaning JuniorMiddle could be out of the question. But he'd still be a very hard hitting Middle.

    Obviously he's not taking on world beaters. But wait until he's in his mid to late 20's and I bet he'll be a world beater. He'll be as good as Katsidis was in his prime or better! Hold me to it!

    Great talent Bilal but waste of time with walter. Unless walter is getting paid by the round he wll be on the deck before the ringing stops from the opening bell.

    Cut the kid some slack, he hasn't had any amateur fights, give him some time to grow in the pros before casting judgement. He has a great team behind him and will only go on to improve and impress.

    that is something i will never understand is blokes jumping stright into the pros . i mean why not have a few fights in the ams first , whats the big rush to be fighting pro? having said that it is much easier to pick and choose your opponents in the pros so its probably not that risky depending on who you fight .

    His highlights certainly look good.

    Kid has good balance and chooses his shots well.

    I thought walter was bad but look at his victim now!Akkaway could knock him out with the touch of gloves before the bell.

    A terrible opponent but I am guessing it was a last minute replacement
