    I've heard his name before. He's fought for the WBA title. His record looks nothing special.

    Here's some footage of him

    From brief looks at him he doesn't look good under pressure and looks like he panics. Napa isn't a pressure fighter as seen when losing his title and this guy looks like he has the height and also same movements of Bouziane. Hope Napa learn't from that lesson.

    Pointless. He is well below that level and a really boring fighter to watch.


    Good luck to him though.

    :patsch Why do people keep saying this? Just because he can't knock people out or hasn't got the most exciting style, this makes him ****?

    Totally agree. Boxing isn't about ko'ing people and having trenchwars. He's a skilled domestic fighter who fights above his natural weight class. He's far from ****.

    Napa is easily the most skilled British fighter as far as defence and counterpunching, nobody comes close. He's far from ****...

    Unfortunately defence doesn't win fights anymore and when somebody keeps out of his range he struggles. An amateur hit and run tactic is good against Napa.

    Would do so much better with a little more power.

    But he's a good fighter to watch, I don't find him as boring as Haskins.

    Not the most exciting to watch but a very very skillful boxer with excellent defensive skills..... He beats Gary Davies every day of the week!!!

    technically brilliant, his size is always his downfall but can be an advantage if the guy he is facing is agressive and a pressure fighter as he has to bend down and leave himself open. he is getting these title shots due to his ability than his record.
