    “Every punch in the heavyweight division is hard but he is, 100%, the hardest puncher I have faced."

    “It was good that the ref stopped the fight after the second knockdown because he saved my health and after a little bit of rest, I will box again in September.”

    “He is also a good boxer and in one or two years, the world will know about Jalolov. But he needs to be in good fights with opponents who are highly ranked, like Otto Wallin, although I don’t think Wallin would take that fight."

    "It was the hardest fight of my career”

    “When I first saw Jalolov, I thought he looked slim, but he can punch really, really, hard and so this was a big surprise to me"

    He's a monstrous puncher but I'm unsure if he's the biggest in the division.

    The way he laid out Torrez was scary.

    He's supposedly got another fight in October. Let's hope it is a good one. Sokolowski is a tough journeyman and spoiler, but it is time for the gold-medalist to get a good, competitive fight.

    Puts him ahead of Whyte, Sirenko, Browne, Vykhorst, Kossobutskiy, and Price in power. Not bad.

    I would like a small step up (just one more) in Jonathon Rice or similar. Then maybe a guy like Yoka a few months later. Then a contender.

    Can you imagine Jalolov detonating on Yokas glass chin?

    That would be a fine fight. Rice is another class of spoiler.

    I got to say one thing about Bakhodir...he has to do a little more with his right. It seems to me like he paws with the jab to find range, and lets the straight left, or occasionally uppercut, do it all for him. Maybe he gets away with it because it is so difficult for some to defend a southpaw, and, conversely, I get that it is very difficult for a southpaw to make his jab into a weapon, and not every southpaw is an Usyk. But he needs to mix in 3-4 good, quality right hooks a round, and it would add so much to his game.

    Right now he will go as far as size, southpaw and brutal left hand take him.

    He is very very basic and has to find his own style. Also his gas tank is suspect. Time will show more.
