James Toney loves this guy and says he is the real thing. 25 years old light heavy from Ukraine. He wrecked Daniel Judah. What is next for him? [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3znUeg7z3w&feature=player_embedded[/ame]
Well, i don't think i'll jump on his bandwagon just for wrecking daniel judah, who's claim to fame is pretty much his last name. But i hear a lot of good stuff about this guy. I've seen some youtube clips off him, he looks pretty composed, solid jab, solid all-around technique, and clearly he's shown good power so far. Pretty eager to see this guy in the ring with a live contender.
i read on the euro forum this guy tested positive for PEDs as an amateur and thats why he turned pro.
I've only seen his fight against Daniel Judah, I'd say he's a solid prospect.. I think under RJJ's promotional banner? We could be seeing him back in the ring soon

Toney's old friend Roy Jones Jr. likes him too, since he's promoting him and has him co-headlining with Roy in his self-promoted clash with Danny Santiago next month. Also on the card will be a crossroads bout between the recently returned Derrick Gainer and the tenacious Walter Estrada. Sillakh's opponent looks like a hand-picked KO victim. He's the one with the white belt in this video: [yt]JstnsfhYuIg[/yt] His one loss is a somewhat forgivable one - coming in his debut, to a very good fighter in Jean Paul Mendy - however, it was a stoppage loss and Mendy is not a power puncher.
