Yep. Also competed in 2 olympics. He lost most of the big names in the ams, is 34 and not exactly the fastest HW out there but has more than enough skills and experience to get somewher with good management.

Undefeated Kiwi prospect Junior Fa improved his record to 13-0 after a very quick demolish job over undefeated USA fighter, Fred Latham. It took 67 secs in the 1st round for the ref to call off the fight with Latham slumped in the corner after a left hook, followed up with a barrage of punches from Fa.
So i rewatched Wilder vs Harrison for shits and giggles, and i saw that Anthony Joshua was attendance, pretty interesting.
Junior Fa defeated Fred Latham by 1 Round TKO. Fa weighed in at 262 pounds for this fight, although it's lighter than his previous it's still is too much. It's pure fat, no muscle on him. This minimizes his chances against good heavyweights, too bad he can't dedicate himself. He needs to work on his physique and his power as well. Fa was undefeated in the 1 season of WSB competition and was undefeated in 2 season until Usyk outworked him. Fa showed his capabilities in amateurs but he is failing in pro ranks. Looks like another failed prospect if he doesn't get himself in shape....
Fa's coach said he will lose even more weight for his next fight, at least they recognise that he is too fat.
