    Eddie Hearn said they're going to move him really quickly

    He said Majidov's team told him to stick him in an 8 rounder, then a 10, and then after that step up to a Michael Hunter Jr. or Kuzmin level opponent

    Problem with that is he hasn't fought in 2 years and I'm not sure why they wasted those 2 years given his advanced age, unless he never really truly planned on turning over until he signed with Matchroom

    He got dropped in his first fight... It's safe to say he's not going anywhere.

    Lol so what should he do instead since he's too old. Age discrimination is repugnant.

    I like both guys. Honestly don't want to see Spong take another beating after Usyk is through with him.

    Dychko is improving. But I'm with you, why turn pro now?

    He would need to be rushed into fighting champions within like 2 years.

    That's actually possible, but they still won't do it. They never do in these situations.

    As always, they'll somehow decide to take it slow for reasons that are beyond me. I guess a lack of confidence.

    Majidov's trainer John David Jackass said Tom Little told him after the the fight that Majidov is the hardest puncher he's faced and Jackass also said he first met Majidov in 2011 and wanted him to turn pro then. Real shame that never happened.

    Majidov seems like a really nice guy

    Both these interviews are a few days old

    Allen knows the game well. He'll be a good coach one day I hope.
