Billy Dib

Post by Mensa07 »

just reading the mosley/zoo article on secondsout.com where it talks about Billy Dib being a protege of Shane's and Mosley being in Oz to train him. Isn't that the kid that the Prince took under his wing a couple of years back, wasn't he training him in sheffield?

Whats the deal with Billy dib, I haven't seen him fight, is he big news? genuine talent? Seems to attract attention from some big names for a 20yr old. Anyone seen him fight, is he the goods?

From what i have seen, he has speed and some flashy skills but not much power. Has been hanging around on the undercards for a while now and i think he is down to face the South African Morali for the IBO bauble this weekend in fact? Seems okay but why the wait on stepping it up? Maybe that tells us all we need to know.

Dib is useless and gets gift decisions (I've seen him get 2 and maybe his last one as well). Thinks he's Hamed.

I saw him on sky once . Very quick , hands down about his hip, not great power I dont think hes been tested and in the fight I saw I think he was tagged a couple of times he says his idol is nas hammed so no suprise hes so flashy , Im not sure he will be able to do it against the top boys.
