The Walter Panduleni "The Executioner" Kautondokwa Express!

After having a couple of days to mull it over and do some research, I'm no longer quite as hopelessly pessimistic regarding this substitution. I still think Kautondokwa is swimming against the current to beat Andrade (unlike Saunders, whom I favored outright) but it may not be the mismatch some of us thought at first blush.

First off, he does have a couple of nice scalps in Godoy & Sai - even if the rest of his exploits are filed under "" (along with most attractive-looking records of African boxers venturing beyond their continent). Watching some videos of him, you can see that his power is absolutely real (Godoy is a good yardstick; the Argentine is a tough SOB and he got demolished) and while a bit slow and stiff he does have a tricky unorthodox style. In all probability Andrade will box circles around him but a very real chance does exist that Boo-Boo gets timed with something big and Executed.
