Gabor Farkas, and yes, on the surface he looks like a crash test dummy with his 5-13 record, but he is in truth one of the heavyweight division's best kept secrets. Man, Am I looking forward to this one. Well, not really. I just don't get how some of y'all get down on guys like Tyson Fury, Robert Helenius and Kubrat Pulev. At least they are willing to fight. I really am hoping for Tom Dallas, Deontay Wilder, David Price and Richard Towers, but they are making joles out of their careers by refusing to fight even the MArcel Zellers, Colin Wilsons and Demetrice King's of the world.
Just watched his fight against Lee Swaby. Good handspeed for a heavy, especially one that tall. Most of his punches look and sound like taps, but the shot that KO'd Swaby was very nice. He's the type of guy that needs some room for extension on his punches to get power on them. What was his AM career like?
Those American HW's today only fight cans and when it's time to step up (mostly overdue), chance of failure is quite big because they didn't learn anything in the ring. I understand you want to bring a prospect carefully and gradually, but it's getting kinda ridiculous.
