    On account of him being Polish, there is a good chance that he has a glass jaw. Poland is 4th highest, behind Britain, Cuba, and Puerto Rico in glass jaws per capita numbers.

    Looks like a real heavy, good luck to him, although don't get TOO hyped poles tend to get knocked down. But seriously the best of luck.

    He's got potential, great power and killer instinct. He's also an uneducated ex hooligan with a criminal background, which only adds to his appeal to the HW fans.

    But given the country he hails from, I'm not holding out much hope for that chin of his

    I find it quite hard too root for him just because he's such a thug.. :tired

    He definitely has the talent and the size to make some noise though, even Lennox said he has the future. But his mentality may be his downfall. He lacks poise, who knows how he'll react under serious pressure, seems a bit like a combo of Tyson and Golota in this aspect.
