    Not very good, A dangerous top 20 fighter on his day, but could lose to alot of the top 20.
    Doesnt look like he can learn much. But he could end up being another David Price.

    I think a good fight would be Miller vs Makhmudov.

    And congrats to Kabayel, clearly a decent fighter. He deserves another good payday on a big event, not sure he will get a title shot in this current climate.

    Makhmudov always relied on power and did not expect Kabayel to know how to box...

    I doubt he was ever top 20 material

    He has literally nothing aside of power and size

    No, Wilder at least had speed and reflexes. Makhmudov's speed make Joe Joyce look like Meldrick Taylor and he has reflexes of a statue

    Hope you didn't just compare that oaf to Big Pricey, lep. The way Big Mak folded was weak and pathetic, Price would have gone out with a bang.

    I actually like the Makhmudov vs Joyce fight. Would be great for 3/4 rounds then the slowest every fight in heavyweight history.

    100% that is exactly who I was trying to think of when looking at where his career could go next. The Kudryashov path.

    He can either retire now as let’s face it he isn’t good enough to win anything. Or otherwise he will be brutally stopped 2-3 times more and then being forced to retire.

    His performance with Jonathan Rice was so good better than french heavyweight Tony Yoka or the australian Dempsey McKean against the same opponent (Jonathan Rice).

    But I think he underestimate Kabayel it's sure.

    But the good news is that we see that he is very weak on his body. Like the thai boxer Sirichai Thaiyen.

    Usually heavyweights can take a dig to the gut. Not seen a heavyweight drop like that 3 times to body shots. 265lbs you would think he would a giant wall of muscle.
