How good is Michael Hunter?

Yeah, wow, he was better looking back in the day. I wasn't following lightweights until I stopped growing, so I didn't remember this. Klitschko also used to be super, super handsome. He's not bad now or anything, but not model-tier. You think these guys would age better.

On note of Loma, you notice a lot of short guys are handsome?

 

Freaken lol at the leprechaun comment. Na man I still rank Gvozdyk more handsome he has strong piercing eyes.

 

Michael Hunter Jr’s professional career (simplified)

1. 28 year old Hunter gets off to a fast start but is worked out, outboxed and then battered late by cruiserweight champion Usyk in America and would have been stopped in the 12th round anywhere else in the world

2. Immediately moves back up to heavyweight to avoid Briedis and Gassiev

3. Gets two dominant wins over plodding fringe contenders Bakole and Kuzmin

4. Fights a faded 40 year old Povetkin: Hunter gets off to a fast start in a back and forth contest but soon flags, Povetkin (a nearly-man of the previous era) takes over and is the better man in the last 3 rounds, Hunter gets a draw

5. Talks begin to fight the inexperienced but avoided prospect Hrgovic for a mandatory position to challenge AJ. Everything looks good but Hunter (lacking confidence after the Povetkin draw and prior loss to Usyk) gets cold feet and abruptly pulls out (citing “risk-reward”) alienating the boxing industry and the fans. He beats up a 38 year old, 2 year inactive, career cruiser journeyman featherfist for more money on Triller instead (originally intended to be on Jake Paul’s undercard)

6. Now 33 years old and in heavyweight no man’s land, Hunter openly considers a move to bridgerweight to fight Rivas; a logical move for any 2nd rate cruiser who is too old or undisciplined to shed the pounds

7. Rematches a journeyman (his 3rd journeyman in a row over 2 years) on a Triller card who he had beaten in his 5th pro fight: Hunter comes out looking flabby, goes life and death over 10 and gets another draw

 

At his best Hunter is a top 10 HW.
