Boytsov - next GREAT HW Champ?

Just saw these clips on another forum and thought I'd share it with the Brit Boxrecers. Boytsov is 19 had 10 fights with 10kos (6'1 and a lean none weight trained 210 - probably fill out at 220+). Reminds me of Joe Louis although others draw comparisons with a young Tyson. Personally in terms of proper punching technique footwork, punching combinations, hand speed I'd personally say no one else at HW can do what he does. Here are some video clips

BTW I don't usually like East Euro fighters (such as the Klits and the rest) but this kid looks like a prodigy.

watching that reminds me of watching Iron Mikes early blow outs from 20 years ago

Denis looks good, but we will have to see what happens when the competition is a little more capable!!!

Great jab and handspeed

Gald someone else brought this up, I have been meaning to a couple of times. I have seen him a couple of times on Eurosport and he looks awesome, pretty weak opponents though but he looks like he will go a long way in the division!

Seems to punch well in bunches rather than relying on single punch KOs as tyson could, Not bad looking but against who? looking at his record they don't seem to be anyone you can tell anything from. Problem with the german system is they don't seem to feed them too many fighters from the USA where there are journymen of a better caliber. Don't know how many of the big HWs he has been against. The guy with the best record on his seems to have been against wofully bad opponents

I've seen him a few times too, and I've also been very impressed. He reminds me a lot of a young Tyson, and is just about the most exciting young heavyweight around right now for my money.
