nope......i don't follow ams...but interested in all these super heavies coming up...combined with all those currently unbeaten in the pros the next few years of HW boxing could get very competitive and interesting
In many ways, Clayton out-Mexicaned his opponent by making a concerted effort to go to the body- and looked quite good in doing so. He's already exceeded expectations, since he was the underdog going into this fight- and if he continues to fight as well as he did against Salinas, there's no reason to believe he can't do it again. As for Kean, he looked pretty good as well. A bit crude, but did some really nice work with the left hand, and came back nicely after a rough start to get himself into positon where he could be given the nod in what was a close, either-way kind of fight. Here's hoping they can keep it up.:good
I've only seen his fight that was just before Kean-Yoka (against a German), but I really liked what I saw. I think Kean can pull it off, but it's gonna be a tough fight. Dychko is the favorite for sure.
Saw some of Clayton's match. He looked pretty impressive. I hear Mary Spencer is a good candidate for a medal. She's been racking up wins here for a while, but almost lost her chance to qualify for the olympics, due to an upset loss. But otherwise, her resume should be pretty solid, at least on paper.
Watched both Clayton and Kean and there opponents, to be honest Clayton has a fine chance, thats a 50/50 fight despite the world rankings, or at least thats the way it looked as the Aussie was not that impressive. Have to say it looks tough for Kean, Dychko is one of the better Euro heavies and he looked very impressive, still hopefully Kean can perform well.
