    Derby light-heavyweight Arfan Iqbal launched his professional career with a contender for knockout-of-the-year on promoter Clifton Mitchell’s latest show.*
    Iqbal detonated a right-hand power punch that laid out Robert Studzinksi in the second of their six-round light-heavyweight fight and showed why Mitchell rates the 20 year-old light-heavyweight so highly.

    Iqbal sold more than 100 tickets and in the opening round, ‘The Major’ showed a loose-limbed, quick-fisted pot shotting style. Late in the session, he connected with a left hook that buckled Studzinski’s knees and soon followed up with a quick-fisted volley that put the Welshman on the floor.
    Studzinksi beat the count - and the bell rescued him.

    Iqbal finished the job early in the second in sensational style. He slung a sledgehammer right hand that swept Stiudzinski off his feet and left him flat on his back. The referee immediately waved the fight off without bothering to count.

    Nice shot. Did he have much amatuer form? I've never heard of him before.

    Brutal. I love it when a guy measures a shot and then eventually he hits them bang on the button.

    Lol.

    I see a kid trying to be Roy Jones. But his head seems to be on a swivel and his chin too high. Both hands are too low and he's leading with too many hooks, you'd better be special athletically to fight like that. Maybe i'm just being too picky, lol. It was only a few seconds of footage.

    Good KO though.

    I really not a fan of hands too low, and his style you are right you need to be athletically gifted to pull it off in the long run. This kid only 20yrs old and that was his debut, he has a lot to learn, but having decent power is a good sign, let's see if he develops.
