    I like Abdukakhorov this boxer because he like France, his song of entrance is 4-4-2 from Brulux. But yeah at his debut when he have only 23, many peoples here and on french forum gives the nickname "The Punisher" because they was thinking this guy will be like a Uzbek Julian Jackson in Welterweight.


    But Abdukakhorov lost pretty easily against a ranked 10th in the world, and then he lost all of his big fights and become a gatekeeper / journeyman in Russia. Even if I still like his style of boxing.

    I think Jhon Orobio is going to take the same road.

    Another overrated in heavyweight actually is Nelson Hysa this guy is only knocked out some journeymans he will do nothing against a top level Heavyweight.


    Also Labinot Xhoxhaj at Heavyweight don't have power at all when he don't fight a journeyman. Maybe the most weakest European champion in Heavyweight of the last 20 years.


    At his debut many peoples was thinking that in Super Featherweight Anatoly Alexandrov was a dangerous puncher too. But he was a more technician with amateur skills of Soviet Union's schools than a puncher.
