I think his promoters must be attempting some kind of viral/forum type method thing of getting his name out there.
El Maachi is not as good as people are making out - ITS THAT SIMPLE Small looked garbage last time out but McDonagh hardly came to win that fight did he ? El Maachi is so fundamently flawed its untrue. Whilst I admire the fact that he wanted it so bad he ended up training himself I can tell you know that is what will be his downfall. Apart from the fact he has tremendous power and a decent left hand he has nothing else. His head movement/ring savvy are very poor and his jab - well his right hand full stop is non existent. Move him off to the left and you've beat him
Be nice to see Maachi given the chance to fight some better opponents, Im sure he wouldnt shirk the opportunity. Give us a good chance to assess his skills properly then. One thing he does seem to have is a good punch. Again even this cannot be truly assessed yet.
Someone just needs to negotiate a decent fight for him. If he is as good as he says he is the paydays will follow. So he should just take a mediocre payday against a name opponent and we'll see how good he is. I still think he would beat small however.
If the stories about him sparring Small are true, it wouldnt surprise me that people MAY BE ducking him on the domestic scene.
