Anyone think Jonathan Banks can make a splash at heavy?

    The division seems to be getting smaller, it is the consensus that his might be Vitali's last year, and Banks says that this is a better weight for him, blaming the Adamek loss on weight drain.

    The heavies are about to become talented- can Banks find a place amongst them.

    Well, whatever his excuses about his chin currently are, he's going to have to learn to cope with pressure a whole lot better than he showed in the Adamek fight. As soon as Adamek realized he could just walk him down that fight was effectively over.

    No I don't think so.

    His last fight against that Zeller dude did nothing to change my mind either - that guy was blown away by Tyson Fury of all people.

    A moderately sized splash when he hits the canvas I suppose?

    Nah.

    He hasn't fought anyone decent since Adamek and just put on weight.

    Doesn't look like a guy that will make any type of splash.
