    Realistically journeyman on journeyman action...

    But could be entertaining nonetheless - if nothing else, since credible arguments can be made both ways and both can be inconsistent, it's an unknown outcome and that makes it intriguing.

    Makh is far more hyped, but I'm not convinced he's realistically any better.

    Great bit of matchmaking, should be fun.

    Mak has legit dumb-dumb power

    Allen is just starting to take his career seriously but has taken insane punishment though and has only looked good recently because he has been matched well and has a good personality which is marketable

    I see Mak catching him very early and then going up the rankings again

    Slightly changing the topic, but has there ever been a boxer with such minimal talent coupled with not even trying, who has got so much money and so many opportunities in the sport?

    Tough question, because not trying I immediately think of not trying to make weight,c which limits me to thinking of heavyweights. Curtis Harper kept getting shots on national television and just kept losing. And even he definitely didn't get as much money as Allen.
