Not really, his defense needs work: 1:28. He did not even see the punches coming.

 

Hard to tell against that opponent. People thought Haye could beat Wlad.

 

Big man that's for sure light on his feet as well

 

Lets see him vs A-Force on Channel 5 :deal

 

I've seen towers before, he is very fluid and moves well, but you need to learn more about boxing if you think he's better or more promising than Fury or Helenius.

He has absolutely no defense and gets hit by everything that comes his way.

 

Even his footwork seems to be telegraphed.

 

good post.
new 4 me.
when's his next fight?

 

He's wide open....chalk him up among the Deontay Wilders of the world as longshots that have a small chance of being a champ 5-10 years from now but will most likely get brutally KO'd before that

 

He looked good in the vid, but please remember he is fighting what is basically a fat egg on legs.

He's been busy over the last 18 months (5 fights) but he's never fought anyone challenging and his next fight is a step back. At 23 Fury has way more potential than this guy.

 

good combo's, but he's waiting to get ko'd by the right hand isn't he? his defense is shocking.

 

Towers has left it too late. He didn't get out of prison until he was about 28/29 and now he is in his early 30's. He also has no amateur pedigree to speak of. Plus he is not very active. Can't see it happening.

 

Style reminds me of Vitali....

 

Not sure he has the reflexes or chin of Vitali though

 

i want to see him against a live body before giving my op. This Budah he was fighting isnt the right thermomether to judge.
but he looks quick and in good shape.
