    Lateef Kayode just announced his campaign in the HW division. he's a pretty big guy for cruiser and started a handful of his fights at heavy. i personally think a fight with adamek would be a good test for him to gauge his effectiveness at the weight. what do you guys think?

    Adamek is fighting Pulev next but Kayode is good ya know?

    I'd take Kayode over bum Denis Boytsov any day. In this era's HW division,an untested often injured lazy bum like Boytsov is top ten so Kayode should have no trouble doing well.

    Not ever cracking top 7 in his career, I'd venture to say.

    The best he could do at CW was be cheated out of a minor belt against an old Tarver. Have the fork ready.

    Really? Then you must have not heard of a bum called Denis Boytsov and another bum called Dimitrenko.

    To be a heavyweight contender these days all you need is 2 hands and a mouthpiece.

    Should have stayed at Cruiser, if he could stay disciplined in his fighting I would favor him over Danny Green and depending on how he looked there possibly over Hernandez who looked like dog **** against Ross.

    See what ya did there :good. Yeah, he would do very poorly, as he would be undersized and with a very rudimentary skillset.

    He sucks is all I'm saying.

    I wouldn't hold my breath watching him fight. Very crude unpleasant style. The Povetkins and Pulevs of the HW division would destroy him
