Saw snippets of his fight last night on the news moments ago and I have to tell you that he has double or triple the speed of Sam Peter - he may weight 253 lbs but it's more about that his back looks very muscular and defined...I can't wait for his US debut next month...
the amazing thing is that in every fight he seems to land whatever he wants whenever he wants. extremely accurate and has alot of power when he sits down on them.
Let me show you something via PM, some genius work from him amatuer against a current boxing star.:good
Haye-Solis is an EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT amateur fight. Solis was EXCELLENT. Solis is my favourite prospect, he has about a billion gold medals. And power/speed/chin. What the **** else you need at heavyweight. Apart from no manboobs.
I seen a pic of Solis as an amateur, he looked very chizzled and solid ... now he looks very round and out of shape. I don't think that his conditioning is up to par of the elite level. His conditioning will be tested against some smaller, faster, HW's with a high work rate. Guys like Haye, Ibragimov, and Povetkin ... would give him trouble through 12 rounds.
and peter hits at least twice as hard. with that weight, i cant see this guy going twelve rounds with wlad like peter did. and knocking out some amateur from georgia nobody ever heard of dont impress much.
considering it was his 9th pro fight, beating an undefeated 20-0 fighter is pretty darn impressive, remind me who the nigerian goat herder fought in his 9th pro fight, didn't he fight julius long a few fights ago? you know the same julius long fraudly ko'd in his 3rd pro fight?
the guy has the most talent in the HW division amongst prospects in my opinion. i just hope he doesn't end up like Gomez
