    Does anyone know much about him? 21-0 only 24.

    Last win was a stoppage win over Tor Hammer, not heard much about him though to be honest.

    Fastest hands in the HW division, hit's reasonably hard but his conditioning is awful.

    I read somewhere he got sidelined by his promoter until he got himself in shape.

    That while he's one of the few boxers out there who can carry the excessive weight pretty well imo. He might not even be a HW when (if) he returns to the ring, wich would be a shame.

    Should be fighting at cruiserweight, he could potentially drain to light heavy, he's about 25kg (4 stone) overweight. If he was 8% bodyfat he would weigh about 81kg (12 st 12)

    Having said that he's got decent skills and very fast hands.

    to be fair to him he has lost a whole lot of flab... very skillful for a heavyweight ,has speed and shots more like a SMW....only seen a bit but from what i seen i like him

    Andy and his team made the decision themselves to focus on his shape rather then fight at the moment.

    When he comes back later in the year he'll look more toned and athletic but don't expect a body like Wlad Klitschko.

    He was 257lbs in his last fight so expect him to be more like 235lbs when he fights again which is a great fighting weight for him. He's only 24 years old but if he keeps improving i think he'll be Heavyweight Champion of the World by the time he's 26.
