...the real deal? I watched him fight last night and was massively impressed. What does everyone else think? :think
Saw him fight a while back. Looked the goods and heard good things from last night but read TFFP post and he said few concerning things but overall a good display.
I think he'd give Cleverly a boxing lesson imo. I want to see Luis Garcia in the ring with him. To avenge his countryman's loss to him.
TFFP... Before watching can I just point out that you will see our Ugandan friend sitting in the corner looking completely disinterested at the start. Reason being that they did his ringwalk with him looking fairly pumped up for it. Then decided to get some fat bloke in the ring who then invited Povetkin in. About 10 minutes later and here we are... [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnXETuramsw[/ame] *Badass defensive skillz at 16:35.
He actually legged it... Swear that guy was one of Cleverly's commonwealth title defences. The one that got laid out cold by a uppercut He looks just as bad as him. That guy was awful, pointless exercise at this stage. I think Sillakh is godly, but his defence is not good lets be frank. He has a lot of amateur habits still but overall is solid, and punches hard. Hopkins would expose him, but if he can take a dig he'll be fine against anyone else and will at the least compete massively.
