Carlos Takam Signs with Top Rank

And Tyson Fury.

 

Pushing 40 years old with two stoppage losses in his last four fights. No doubt about it that he’s simply been signed as an opponent for one of Top Ranks prospects.

 

Which is sad really, he's a hired punchbag.

 

After being KTFO by Pudding Chisora, I really thought Takam would be picked up by Rank Rotten

 

This

 

Top Rank much like it’s father is fast approaching the grave yard.

 

Too tough of a fight for Fury.

I reckon hes lined up for Kabayel (which will be a close fight) and Joyce.

 

Fury schooled prime chisora twice. Shot to pieces chisora put carlito takam to sleep. The same carlito takam who would have taken AJ twelve on two weeks notice were it not for a match room ref stoppage.

 

Chisora has been battered from pillar to post the whole fight though hadn’t he. Great ko but Takam’s fault it happened.

 

Good point. I keep forgetting KOs in boxing don’t count if you’ve been losing rounds up until the KO.

 

Fury in his prime beat Chisora. Fury now however turns down fights against AJ, Whyte and Wilder to fight guys outside the top 40 in the likes Schwarz and Wallin.

Also Takam had more than 2 weeks notice to figh AJ, had a full camp training for AJ as Hearn gave him fee to be the reserve boxer.

 

He's paid well enough and can make his own decisions on when to retire

 

Of course, but he was once a contender, now he's basically paid to bulk up prospects and gatekeepers records.

 

Yeah but thats how it goes in boxing. He needs to retire if he wants to keep his dignity and/or his health.

Like Danny Williams said at a certain point you are just selling your chin and prostituting your health for the money
