Shoulder injury was already 6 or 7 weeks before fight and hand injury comes to first round of the fight..and probably because of earlier shoulder injury. Punch angle was all wrong
Good heavyweight. Uses a sort of cheap Joe Frazier style, ducking and hooking. Has a tendency to gas in teh later rounds but that seems to be improving. Decent chin but lacks serious power. His current record is unflattering. He clearly beat Helenius and it wasn't even particularly close. He turned up for the fight against Tyson Fury 20lb overweight, stupidly it seems he didn't feel the need to train. If he'd turned up in shape there's no doubt in my mind he'd beat Fury. He's a worthy challenger though nothing amazing. Won't have the power to trouble Vitali and will likely get stopped somewhere around the 7th-9th. His style is more suited to a fighter like Wlad stays behind his jab. Though he stands very little chance of beating Wlad either! The only way he beats Vitali is if Vitali suddenly gets old. I rate him as one of the better of the current bunch. The Klits are a level above him and so's Haye probably but I'd like to see him against the rest. Chisora Vs Arreola, Adamek, Chambers etc. would interest me. Then we'd really see what he's made of. IT's too early to be fighting for the title imo.
