    I've seen Knife fight in EFC... He's not a good striker even by MMA standards. Botha might win unless he's Williams level shot.

    Martin vs Marrone could be interesting.

    Joyce will be in for the beating when he will face some skilled heavyweights in the professionals, just look at these fights:

    Too bad original fight didn't happen, Martin ducked.

    Kuzmin will be a contender in some time.With his counter punching ability, power, chin, an ability to cut the ring off and timing he will make an impact but he still has some 7 fights untill he goes there.

    Welcome addition... But he's very stiff and with a questionable chin, still enough of a wild west climate for him to surprise us a bit though. I won't be counting him out completely, but valid observation on your part.

    Joyce did alright against Hrgovic, got smashed (literally) by Kuzmin and dominated by Usyk there.

    I do think Joyce is a decent addition to the pro ranks nonetheless, he could be in some interesting fights. Joshua was also considered stiff and with a questionable chin as an amateur ...

    Kownacki won as expected

    P.S. I want to see Rivas/Kownacki or Kownacki/Mansour next.

    These fights make a lot of sense.

    As expected? Give me a break.... No one expected that, and if they backed Kownacki to win they were likely just being contrarian. But yeah those would be good fights.

    WBA wants to make Fury/Oquendo if Fury will be able to fight.If not expect Ustinov/Oquendo.
