    decent amatuer career won eu silver
    just missed out on olympic qualification in 2002
    should of had decent name in mbaye..on his resume but he pulled out with a week to go b4 thier fight
    has decent power but a little bit slow
    doesnt put his hands up likes to defend using reflexes,this might be his downfall as his reflexis arent as fast as khans hands
    has a lovely quirky uppercut which might land on khan during the fight and he certainly is NO SALITA

    floyd mayweather eat your heart out.

    I think he looks quite good.

    It's good to get new undefeted guys in the mix. F*** Peterson, he's had his chances.

    I alway like seeing good fighters step up to the plate. Should be a big fight in England for sure and Ireland of course

    he's a good fighter, pretty precise, decent power but defense is poor, he needs help using the shoulder roll, maybe in another year or so he would have given khan a good fight but right now i dont think so.

    Hmmm looks decent but everyone does in a highlight reel right?

    I doubt he gets by Khan.

    He really doesnt stand much of a chance against Khan. Really, really doesnt at all. Sorry, just sayin it like it is. All the best to both fighters when they meet though.

    he's a tough guy he'll stay in there for a while but in the end khan will have him.

    he's a really nice guy from what i've heard so best of luck to him.

    Id like to see this as a bit of a challenge for Khan but can only see him steam rolling McCloskey outta there! Not sure ill be paying for it...

    agreed, seems like a good bloke but it's deffo Khans fight, it will end up being very one sided imo :good
