    Assuming he gets by alcine, how do you see rose getting on in this (Hearn said he is trying to get this fight for brian). Zaurbek did lose to bunderage, but according to a few sources he was quite drained at the weight. He has some solid boxing skills and a decent dig on him. Hes beaten Rubio and konecny and looks to be improving.

    Thoughts?
     
  2. We are talking baysangurov here yeah
    I think he is improved greatly and would easily beat Bundrage now

    He has good work rate and carries power

    I'm a Brian Rose fan but I think he comes up short

    Tough to say Rose doesn't look world level to me and most fans on here but niether did Ricky Burns, Gavin Rees, Clinton Woods etc. If he fights a weak champ which ZB is and the fights in the UK you would give him a real shot.
     
  4. Is baysangurov k2promoted though so would they get the fight here

    Brian Rose will do very well indeed to get past Alcine, he's just not anywhere near good enough to operate at world level, the idea is laughable actually
     
  6. I think Rose is a very tidy boxer who is technically good and tough but just doesn't carry enough power for world level,the likes of konency even would just keep coming at him and the likes of webb,maxwell,carslaw and arron aren't at that level

    But he has down everything he can at domestic,deserves his chance and good luck to him

    But you would have said the same thing about Ricky Burns?

    No I wouldn't, when I saw Ricky Burns I didn't visualise Lenny Daws. Rose is very average indeed.
     
  9. That chechen guy is fighting andrade next.

    Baysangurov is underrated. No way would Brian Rose whose feather fisted beat him.
