Evgeny Andreyevich Tishchenko vs. Dmitry Aleksandrovich Kudryashov

In all three cases, btw, I meant to say "powerful but flawed". As in heavy-handed but none of them are particularly fast or explosive whatsoever. All have complacent 'first-gear' tendencies. None have a lot of killer instinct or variety in their game offensively, nor are their defenses very dynamic (head and upper body movement nowhere to be found). Basic stand-up one-two artists to a tee.

Sirenko was the best amateur, Teslenko has for some reason been given the most slack in the pros as far as people seeing something in him and clinging to hopes he can achieve that potential (or at least, did until he lost), and IMO the h2h best of them was always Sirenko even though he has frustratingly been a can crusher since his debut. FFS his biggest steps up to date were just in this very calendar year against Ouatah and 44 year old Ustinov - a level he should have progressed past a while ago.

 

So, to answer your original question @Dannymita - "..is tischenko the 12ft 9 featherfist whose got extremely stiff legs and struggles to knockout a wank?"

Yes. I think between him and the other guys he gets mixed up with, you're most likely thinking of Tishchenko here.
