    Yoka wins on points. Tough one to score that one though. Dychko might had been a bit unlucky but I'd have to watch it again to be sure.

    So 2pac is still alive, and he's making waves in his 40s as a boxer?

    Dychko dissapoints once again at a big tournament. Not suprised, I have no idea what so many see in him. Losing to Yoka of all people.

    I think he's lacking something. He is talented but needs to sit down on his shots more. I also think he might be a bit gunshy after the brutal KO loss to Medzhidov as well.

    I don't rate Tishchenko at all from the little I've seen of him, which admittedly isn't very much. He's looked average everytime I've seen him. Levit and Savon are clearly the best at HW, IMO. The Ukrainian representative Manukyan who beat Levit earlier on in the week (although I hear Levit might have got stitiched up again like he was against Savon in the WSB) looks like he might make a good pro. I only saw him once but he looks strong and like he packs a big punch.

    The small Shakur > the big Haney.
    Devin Haney is lauded as a big prospect especially by Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Sr.
    I see far more potential in Shakur. Shakur has an amazing base. Once he learns pro variations to his style, he's going to conquer (providing he has a chin lol).

    To be fair, I think Haney only just turned 17.

    I put this vid up before, but it was taken down.

    Its good stuff
