The most feared HW around. The unbeaten Russian, nicknamed 'The Lion', resumed his destructive pursuit of a world heavyweight title fight by dispatching Pavel Sour in just over 30 seconds in Mexico last week. Makhmudov has broken the resistance of all 11 of his opponents, with only one bout lasting beyond three rounds, and promoter Estephan insists that his fighter's concussive punches will topple any HW.

A 32 year old who's not fought anyone in the top 30 and is fight another nobody soon. Lets wait until he's fought someone near Chisora's quality before saying AJ/Fury would be scared.
Makhmudov did not test himself against a better fighter and it is difficult to say how good he is, I think that a fight with Hrgovic would make a lot of sense and it would show how good he is...
I agree he needs to be tested,,but currently using the eye test there's a lot of heavyweights who'll want nothing to do with him. I think Chisora would be tailor made for him but can't see Chisora taking that fight .Knowing the heavyweight division he'll fight Takam and we still won't know exactly how good he is.
