Dunno, but he was absolutley sensational at the last olympics. A real standout. He's still only 21 mind.

I just hope that if he does go pro he picks the right promoter, I'd hate to see one of the best amateur talents I've seen in years have a less than stellar pro career feasting on a bunch of average fighters in WBO bouts and never having the chance to fullfill his potential.

No I dont think he will unfortunately. Thought he would after the last Olympics but he didnt. I just hope a promoter makes him an offer he cant refuse..

He must of had some huge offers he has looked completely faultless on the 3 or 4 occassions that i've watched him.

Hope he doesn't go with the German promoters. They seem to horribly mismanage most of the amateur prospects that they bring through. Saying that Korobov is being moved way too slowly for my liking and he's with an American promoter...

Not if he doesnt get the fights to prove himself he wont be. Look at Gennady Golokvin - he has gone from stone cold killer in the ams to virtual unknown, untested pro (despite his lofty world ranking). He needs big fights NOW to gain some lost momentum, although his dispute with Universum wont be doing his chance of getting the fights he needs any favours....
