    I have never seen a good heavyweight from India. I have seen Satish Kumar box Jalolov ( Jalolov announced he is going pro ) in the Asian games final, and Kumar wasn't skilled enough to out point or brave enough to make it a war.

    Satish Kumar could be a regional heavyweight draw, but I do not see much beyond that. Hope he goes pro.

    He's terrible lol. He would be even worse than Vijender Singh and Prince Patel.

    Laughing a bit as I saw Gurcharan Singh ( not Vijender ) way back when on Tuesday night fights. IMO, he's the best heavyweight of all time from India.

    He was active, fought journeyman, getting cut sometimes, and then lost via TKO to Timor Ibragimov when he stepped up.

    But with a billion + people in India, a good regional boxer from India, I think would be good for the game. I don't see anything better than a top 50-100 type of talent in Satish Kumar. But I'd like to see him go professional as this global sport needs all they it can get.

    India vs. Pakistan at any weight...a built in promoters dream if you know what I mean.

    They are the worst boxers ever lol.

    I just typed in the surname Singh for curiosity on boxrec and 7 pages and 123 boxers past and present came up. There's been many more of them than people think in the pros they just never get to any decent level, many of them give up and retire very quickly after losses.
