Another tough one for Bilal Akkaway

Bilal Akkawy and Billel Dib are neck and neck to win Australian boxings
" Most Padded Record " award for 2014.

 

Plenty of other contenders for that :yep

 

Didn't really want to mention Mundine but I'm sure he'll be in the mix.

 

Dib, a fighter who relies on a his 1-2 combo in out, and counter..has no power, has no hook, body or uppercut to really trouble anyone his speed and his avge defence are his only tools.. First time I seen him fight in the Mundine card... As soon as he fights a straight forward banger.. He will get ko'd early

8rds Billel Dib V TBA

Billy Hussein must be struggling to come up with a soft enough touch
to throw in with the Australian Super Feather Champ. :yep

 

Based purely on their names I don't really give a **** about either.

 

Is that so? IMO, it was one of the best undercard for yonks

 

I can see why they don't want to have him in any tough meets. Given he's as good as he is at such a young age all he has to do is grow older and he'll become a better/stronger fighter. Save the tough fights for when he's hunting for a title shot.

But I do agree it would be a lot more interesting from a spectators point of view to see him get tested a little more.

What I think could probably work is getting him down to Middleweight and have him fighting 4 rounders, 6 rounders at the most. This way he can gain the experience of making 72kg's, which is where they want him to eventually campaign, and if they step up on the class of opponent for him and he ends up being tested than it would be a tough 4 rounds. Career shortening fights generally come from prolonged beatings. There's a big difference between a tough four rounder in comparison to a tough eight rounder

 

Unfortunately for bilal you can't find skills in wheatbix packs or feeding on tomato's, the fact is Bilal is a limited fighter with limited potential a decent domestic fighter at best, your faith in him is overrated

 

Bullcrap I heard he had 11 amateur fights

 

He hasn't had any amateur fights. I know first hand, his father is a great bloke and his uncle, whos also a great bloke, was my trainer. Both guys are very humble and two of the best people you could ever meet, give them time they will step him up, he is still young and is still learning. His father was also an outstanding amateur until he was in an accident and unable to compete again. He had a vicious left hook, that as Danny Green would say "Could knock out a cow"
