    Do you think he is the goods and will win a world title?
    Do you think he'll atleast win a British level title?
    Do you think he is any good?
    Do you think he is going nowhere?
    How do you like his skills?

    I thought this was going to be a thread about a video game character

    Yes he is.. and he looks like nothing.

    If he's got his dad telling the world hes better than Foreman its all goin to his head and you can see the arrogance already. Which is fine but means nothing beating fat blobs.

    He also has an hour glass shape like a girl. Which is unsettling.

    The only person "hyping" him is his Gyppo father.

    he needs to hit the weights and the track, i know not everyone is built like David Haye but at least look the part for ****'s sake. His punch out put is low and sloppy and his defense looks very questionable to say the least.

    Looks like the Tye Fields of the UK from what I can see. Probably has the same quality chin to boot.

    WHY THE **** IS EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT HIM?!

    He gets more threads than Povetkin or Dimitrenko.

    This is a bit of a joke the guy has had a couple of fights and has done well so far he is only young and although he comes across as abit of a **** i don't see who is hyping him apart from his dad.
