In a realm of miserable tail-eating pedants, Pepe was brave enough to see a way out... a true visionary.
He got about three gift decisions in the Olympics. It was absolutely outrageous. He did little except go into a defensive shell, and you can't even score him particularly highly on defense, because most of the punches were getting through to him! I consider him to be a very ordinary talent from what I have seen.
And on course to become France's first heavyweight world titleholder following failed attempts by Carpentier, Rodriguez, Mormeck, Duhaupas, and most recently, Takam.
