    23 years old.
    Light Flyweight.
    5 feet 1 inch tall.
    9-0 in WSB with wins against good opposition like Argilagos.
    Turning pro with Golden Gloves Promotions.

    Very exciting to watch. Great angles, great foot and hand speed, great combos, intelligent and knows how to point score, great tenacity, loves to FIGHT, mixes up body and head shots well.
    He reminds me a bit of Manny Pacquiao in a couple of ways.
    His potential is very high if he learns some pro quirks.

    He has improved a lot over the last couple of years, despite consistently winning.
    His tenacity can sometimes get him caught with good shots so he's going to need to be careful turning to the paid ranks because the paid ranks will not be as forgiving.

    He didn't drop a single round in the Olympics. Here's a breakdown of the Light Flyweight division: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxing_at_the_2016_Summer_Olympics_–_Men's_light_flyweight

    One of the meanings of Hasan is 'good' and also 'beautiful' in the handsome way. Technically, the english translation of his name is Good Boy lol

    He has signed with a South African promoter, which is a bit disconcerting. I would have hoped/expected an American agency to have signed him.

    He looks good I like his style. Aggressive little pitbull but plenty of skill too.

    Was his final earlier on today? If so, I will definitely have that recorded?

    A promoter who can get him match ups with Joyi and Budler in the near future. A lil shocked no Oriental promoter went in for him tbh. American promoters have little interest in the little guys

    How do you reckon he does in pro boxing? Can he follow in Lomachenkos foot steps?

    All the Western boxer he beat will sign with rich Western promoters and get paid much more money for not being as good. Welcome to the world of pro boxing.

    I like it. Put the hard hat on it's time to go to work. None of that run run run slap run ****. It looked like he was getting in range and then throwing combinations high and low, putting weight behind those punches.

    Yep, Spartacus is without a doubt one of the best shows ever :good
    I've seen it a number of times, the acting was incredible although it can be a bit cheesy at times.

    I think he'd do very well, but I can't personally call to what extent.
    I've seen him keep his chin out sometimes, once he got cracked in WSB although he went on to win it. Given the pros is a slower pace and he can pick his punches more, I can be more hopeful. He's an intelligent guy.
