    Anyone know much about this guy?

    He stopped Nascimento in 7 on the Klitschko undercard last week and also has a 2nd round stoppage over Botha. He's only 22 and has 7 stoppages in 8 fights.

    I watched the Nascimento highlights and he looks like a decent heavyweight prospect.

    Good prospect..... a bit rough around the edges but he shows a lot of promise.... Think he's facing Brian Minto in.June..

    been following him for a while , the other guy hyped was sonny boy williams the rugby player , botha had him nearly kod at the end of the 9th and they then changed it from a 12 to 10 rounder on the spot ... parker kod him in his next fight in 2 , got wobble a few times vs nascimento though but survived a mini crisis to come back with a ko , id take that as a plus at 22 good learning fight and if he sorts out conditioning i think he could be the best to come from that side of the pond in a long long time
