http://www.boxingnewsonline.net/bn08/detail.asp?id=2651 I've never heard of this guy, or know anything about him.... But I know this much... I'm just glad there are more Heavyweight prospects finally coming on the scene! Looks like things are finally looking up!
There is a ****ton of guys with less than 10-20 pro fights who look promosing. Plus the guys who will most likely jump after the olympics. Been building up for a while and it looks good for the future like you said. butttttt most of these guys are moving forward in first gear until the Bro's retire. Same as the contenders. edit I like the fact this guy wants a piece of Price to avenge his loss in the AM's. Good stuff.
Wilder is living off of his height just like Fury. What happened when Fury took a step up? He was knocked down by a not particularly hard puncher. Seth Mitchell is the future. Even at his early stage,he looks better than Boytsov and Povetkin and Dimitrenko. More boxing skill and more power.
I'm not that convinced by Mitchell yet, I think he could end up being a Jeff Lacy type, i.e. looks impressive against lesser opposition but always falls short at a higher level. I think Perez would beat him fairly easily right now.
tall boxers do not automatically= Awsome HW boxing guys like ali, lennox, klitschko brothers have the great advantage of having great size, power, speed, skills... alot of tall fighters, are just tall and suck valuev is garbage.. and he is tall as he**
Let's see how he does against Rich Power (15-1 only loss to Fury on points) this Saturday. With that it's nice to see where he stands...
I would not recommend laying any money on this guy if he fights a top 50 HWT. He has had 11 fights with 10 1 round ko's and a 2 rd KO. All but 2 of his opponents have losing records. One fellow has 3 wins and 14 losses, koed in the 1st round 10 times! He is 31 years old and he thinks he is going to have a long reign as a champion? He may have a long undefeated streak with these kind of opponents, but champion?
For all of your Euro- heavy info needs. Abdusalamov is discussed. http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=262115
