Tony Yoka fighting Petar Milas?

[StrabaBox29]

Will there be anything from this fight or has the deal failed?

EBU -s first date for making a deal was 29.10.2020
but i hear no info after....

I don't know much about this young man Petar. Just watched him knock Kevin Johnson though, with a powerful left hook. Lots of damage done. How do you reckon this will go?

Good test for Yoka... best so far, young and powerfull is Milas but Yoka outpoint him. UD for Yoka

I think Yoka is definitely further along, even without considering his amateur pedigree. Milas is a tidy boxer but I don't believe he can match Yoka for power or that he possesses the pop to exploit any potential weakness in Yoka's chin.

I applaud both of them for taking a competitive match against a fellow prospect, although if Milas cares about his unbeaten record I don't think this is the way to go about maintaining it.

Hopefully he and his team are taking the fight because they think he's got a good chance to win and even if he loses he'll gain some good exposure and experience.

I guess I'm old enough to remember when young fighters weren't matched with staying undefeated as the primary goal.

A good matchup, if it's really happening.

Yeah so am I. It's refreshing when you see this attitude hasn't died completely.

It would be better, if Hammer still matched against Dave Allen. It had some intrigue. Yoka will dominate Hammer.

Yoka beats Hammer pretty convincingly. Yoka appears to be working through the aging European-level veterans that no longer pose a threat in Hammer, Duhaupas and Dimitrenko. Should he not get a fight against Milas for the EBU belt, I predict his next matchup will be one of the following: Helenius, Takam, Price, Wach, Huck, Ustinov, Teper.

Helenius actually stands out of this gatekeepers' row, he is more dangerous than the rest.

Yeah I'd say Helenius and Takam are the two who would actually fight back.
