    I think heavies getting the rounds in early in their career is much better for them.

    If you blow away guys early, sure it looks good for the camera, but it does not teach you pacing, stamina, taking punches etc..

    Your a good study of a boxer Indian Red, the force and strength of Whites punching was unbalancing his opponent, but theres an ingredient missing wich will prevent him from scoring kos, though at these early stages he will stop a few bulgarian types, , You are dead right, he'll go no further than larry at best.:think

    he beat anthony joshua as an amateur aswell i know joshua has vastly improved since then but still a decent achievement he just needs to take his time.

    Cheers for posting, i rate the lad. I think he could be for real. I'd put him in with a fellow prospect. Really test him i think he'll thrive on it.

    I dont think he's got a regular promoter & seems to be on a different shows all the time. I hope he doesnt struggle to get good opponents, he needs to be pushed a little & not get fed a load of cans but I have high hopes for Dillian, seems like a nice lad as well.
