Three weeks from Saturday, on the Arslanbek Ruslanovich "The Lion" Makhmudov vs. Tshibuabua "Junior Maximus" Kalonga undercard in Montreal. Ziyatdinov, hailing from Simferopol but now based in Canada, has every possible advantage: he's 23 (16 years Boone's junior), stands a whopping 6'2" (giving him 6½" on Boone), and had a 120-15 amateur record before his current unblemished professional run. Having said all that...underestimate Deezol (who is precariously perched on the razor's edge with a symmetrical record of 24-24-5 and is certain to be motivated to get into the black once more) at your peril, especially when he's given free reign to maul some previously untested greenhorn.
Ziyatdinov's pro debut: This content is protected The kid has really fought nobody since. This leap up in class might seem a terrible mistake in hindsight...
