    Wallisch can be OK using his jab - but I don't think it's going to be enough of a deterrent to keep Makh off of him for too long.

    Wallisch was ruined by bad management and long periods of inactivity.

    After doing very well for several years and showing very good potential, he fought only once in 2015, once in 2016, and once in 2017.

    Interestingly enough, after he lost by stoppage he had no problem finding fights.

    I remember that. He had some legal troubles, I think, which led to an enforced layoff.

    Yeah, it seems like fighters can get fights easier once that veneer of invulnerability has been shed. Especially if they can look the part.

    I think he went to jail, if I am not mistaken. Could be wrong.

    Why was Goulamirian inactive for THREE years? And Egorov hasn't fought in nearly that long too.

    I thought it was both but I could be wrong. Schwartz very badly and publically beat his girlfriend.

    Still. He's a real boxer who should be above losing to clowns like that.

    Usually washed up fighters. Hasim Rahman Jr is still young and active in the sport.

    Easy to say when you ain't in there bro, being outweighed by 94 pounds by a very good athlete in a ring as small as it was would be a difficult task for most whether they are a "Real boxer" Or not.
