    it's strange becuase when you saw his gym footage he was using solid countering ability.had a nice sort of qawi shoulder roll thing going on and good handspeed and a jab. even in his fights his handspeed is pretty good for a man for his size. not very agile though. but his in ring style is right hand happy. too open and clearly tires.

    i think it was detremental that he was being put in with guys who are not there to give him a challenge. has lead him to believe he can bomb out anybody..he prolly can but thats not how you go about it. also for guy with his physical strength it's surprising that he isnt bullying his opponants. he seems to stand off with a bob sapp mentality.

    the way he went agaisnt peret was **** poor and peret got lucky he happend to be big enough and solid enough not to fold.

    different level of raw but has a sort of talent and ability.

    He's already lost, and it was to that hairy backed Russian journeyman that Tyson Fury and Derek Chisora already beat. Olubamiwo is seriously awful.

    Look, Cotto20, just go for it. Gauging your potential on Larry Olabamiwo is going to get you nowhere. How many different thread titles can you post basically the same thread???

    Was it Peret who beat him?

    ****ing lol.

    I saw him live at the first Jaffa fight, he burned out after 2 rounds and Shrek outclassed him for the next few. The Frank Bruno of the now, but with even less stamina and much less power. He couldn't KO someone on Punchout nevermind in the ring.

    Didn't want to though and wasn't especially hurt. I'm sure he would've preferred to go on.
