    Really needs a good performance. Looked off it against Takam.

    Makhmudov vs. Hrgovic, let's make it happen, both should take a risk...

    So far he seems to be a very dangerous man and possibly the next beast in the category. He has enough amateur experience, enough pro-one and it's time to go for top 10 only opponents if they're willing to face him, of course.

    I think he should fight Hunter

    Inb4 he fights a shot, old man instead of a Dubois or a Hrgovic. His last 6 opponents have an average age of 40.

    Fury could have earned some points by fighting him. Instead serves up his own reheated leftovers.

    Makhmudov is the most overrated fighter on here. I said it before the Takam fight. All power and no skills. Slow feet too. I’d like to see him against any top 20 heavyweight though it should be fun.

    You're saying this based on which fight exactly? What has he even done in ams or pro? Nothing so far, besides beating senior citizens

    If he connects you go down. He's very dangerous.

    But he couldn't stop a shot beyond belief Takam. Maybe he can crack, but totally unproven at top level

    He knocked down Takam in the first 30 seconds and then Takam got on his bike for the next 11+ rounds relying on counters and veteran moves to survive.

    The small ring favoured Takam too in all honesty as it gave Makhmudov less space to work with and made him look pretty sloppy and unco-ordinated.

    As for Tyson Fury not knowing who he is, that's just Fury being the idiot we all know he is; a liar through and through.

    This picture says otherwise.

    I thought he showed some poor defense in that fight. But he is seriously heavy handed

    His stock took a dive after the Takam fight. Whoever he fights in December will need to be carefully picked to ensure we don't see another poor performance from Makh.

    Makh has a lot to work on if he's ever to get any kind of title shot. He falls in after the right hand and so smothers any chance of following up after the right hand. His foot work is poor, way to wide a stance, unable to get out of the way even from Takam's wild OH rights. His defence is next to non existent and his lack of a jab will no doubt be exploited by better fighters.
