I just read that Daniel Santos is going to make his first belt defence against Yuri Forman. I havn't had a chance to see Yuri fight, but have head he is a solid fighter that can bang. This fight looks like it's going to be on the Cotto/ Pac card. Does Santos have something to worry about? can anybody shed some light on what abilities Forman posseses?
Foreman is a boring boxer who jabs and moves a lot...Most of the fights i saw of him were really boring...But still he's technically sound, have good speed and good footwork...But it will not be enough against Santos's power...Santos TKO8
Foreman actually can't bang at all. He couldn't crack an egg really. He's an outside boxer with good quickness, but he fights in a very amateur style. Kind of similar to Paulie Malignaggi, but not as willing to take punishment as Paulie.
Santos will expose the extrodinarily ordinary Foreman by TKO. Foremans been matched more carefully than anyone since the pre Holmes Gerry Cooney. Foreman has no real power, isn't especially fast, or defensivly sound. It won't go 10 rounds.
Never mind Santos... We should ALL be worried... about falling into a deep coma and missing the main event after watching this clown for a few rounds. Oi Vay!
Ironic they are pretty much best mates aswell. Foreman is very good technically, especially in the footwork department. Can see him dancing to a UD but a fairly boring one, not as boring as Khan-Kotelnik though.
Even though Foreman is undefeated, his KO ratio is horrible. I'm picking Santos on this one. I was impressed when he fought Margarito.
