    I am not sure if he is the best. But he has the most exciting style that is for sure, he is like a ****ing tank, he needs to turn pro soon.

    Yes, he has an entertaining style that is well-suited to pro boxing. I hope he turns pro as soon as possible.

    Just watched some footage of him. He does not look like the best p4p amateur in the world.

    A very controversial choice. Even in Ukraine quite a lot of boxing fans call him “stupid robot”, but others are very excited about his fighting style.

    By the way, his plans are to participate in the next Olympics and go pro only after that.

    By who?
    I personally don’t think that’s deserved as There’s amateurs who’ve accomplished so much more than him

    Watched him live in Hamburg for final and he looks very powerful but I reckon a slick boxer will, Definitely not easily, beat him. England’s Ben Whittaker had a good try but a slick Cuban or even someone like Melekuziev if he comes back down to 75 has a chance with their movement and slick boxing

    He looks like he hits really hard, but he's pretty crude.

    Can he really throw so many power punches for 12 rounds? I think he will have to adapt a bit.
    But hes a ****ing tank and it should be a fun ride.

    No. Nobody can. The craziest part is that he can actually box (well, "normal style" :) ) quite well.
