Just found this for the first time.Some of his earlier stuff that had everyone excited.Watch it,he ruined a chance big time.He had all the skills needed. [yt]8NgKrQC5xIw[/yt]
yeah he really had a lot of potential, he could abeen something special with discipline he was just too damn lazy. one of the innovators of the whole fat ass heavyweight trend going on nowadays.....what a dickhead
« Beat Johnson and you'll get a shot at Glesby ». Pretty funny in retrospect. It's like saying « Beat Joe Greene and maybe we'll get you a big fight against Pawel Wolak ».
WHY NOT? The guy was just showing us the potential KJ showed when he was coming up. Of course, it's easier to look great vs a can like Dixon... but still, Kirk looked good. He had some skill. and real fast hands for a HW. Too bad he f---ed everything up like he did. Really let N.S. down.
BTW, I heard he's coming back... and he's in shape. Anybody know if he's got a fight lined up yet? Don't see the Klits shaking in their boots,,, but he's definately a great gatekeeper type opponent for the new crop of heavies. And, I'm betting he could probably upset some of them too if he gets his **** together.
I just came across it on youtube.I just wanted some to see what he really looks like when he was on top of his game.I know the opponent wasn't top notch,regardless you can obviosly see the skill,speed,power and everything he had.Some guys here never seen kirk or only seen him against Vitali.I have heard to many guys here say Kirk can't and never could box.Thats a crock.HE was the reason he never made it to where his skills should have brought him,it wasn't because he was no good.
