Matt KOROBOV - Top Rank's new not-so-hidden gem

**** sorry mate, never noticed this thread, started up one about him as well haha, ah well hes that good he deserves two.

 

He is a great talent. Powerful boxer. I thought I read from his last fight that he is 29yrs old already but boxrec says he is 26yrs old. He has great potential to become a champion a few years from now.

He just need to fight more as he only have 5 professional fights.

 

Korobov's extensive amature career was ovbious last night. He simply did not look like a kid in his 5th pro fight. He is already fairly well polished. I think he can step up and move through the ranks pretty fast. We just need to hope The Bob Father does not get any silly ideas about feeding him to Pavlik before he's really and truly ready.

 

As good as a prospect as there is today.

 

Co-Sign:deal

 

He is absolutely unproven yet. It is easy to look good against tomato cans.
Nothing of notice until he steps up in competition.

 

I love how this guy fights, he seems to float on his feet and is very accurate with his punches

 

Korobov looked superb last night, Seen him before but last night he had everything flying for him and certainly didn't look like a guy fighting in only his 5th pro fight. Speed, Power, accuracy and good on his feet, Very impressive prospect.:good

 

This kid has an offense made in hell and KO one punch power in both hands. He was throwing uppercuts, hooks, jabs, straight rights and left, lead right hands, lead lefts hands, basically every punch in the book, and in 5-7 punch combos with killer accuracy.

I think he is something special personally. He has the potential to be at championship level with a year or 2.

 

I think he would give Pavlik hell even at this level right now

 

Koborov looked good, but the guy he fighting had 12 losses on his record. So you know why he was put in the ring.

 

and he had 20 wins... with 17 knockouts.

 

I think he could be brought along at a Gamboa pace in all honesty, and challenge for a belt before his 20th fight. His offense was just unreal, and he had excellent defense as well. He got hit with not even 10 clean punches in the 2 rounds, and what he did get hit with he walked right through.


Not only that, but his punch technique is SO clean. Never got wild, not went swinging. He was textbook the whole time, yet still completely fluid looking, and he has fast hands as well.

 

very bright prospect.

 

i thought he looked pretty good. good mix of punches and power.i prefer him over lara. daniel jacobs i wasnt to impress with neither but hey the man just fought a week before so im not to sure of him any one knows much on him? but i will like to keep up with korobov.
