I was not impressed with his performance against Richard Torrez Jr. who is not 6'2" and not hard puncher.

Today Olympic final proved Jalalov has no power, he can KO you only, if he catch you very clean like he did
last time against Torrez. Jalalov need tp pack some size on his Upper Body, which looks too small, so he can
punch bit harder.

Also Lets not forget at this Olympic, there was just 2 other guys who could match up for his size, as opposed
to 2016 Olympic where he had 6 other guys who could match up his size and some of them coming of 2012
Olympic Experience.

Clearly 2021 Olympic were not a competitive one for Super HW category.

wilder, aj, etc never scored any stoppages in the olympics.....amateur boxing at a high level has very few of them. jalolov has far more stoppages than most high level ams, including the biggest one of them all. i wouldnt say his power is what should be in question. he also had torrez rocking in the gold medal final

if jalolov has an issue, it's that he has no inside game, because he pretty much just throws the long jab and straight left, without uppercuts or short hooks, etc to work with. thats why he held torrez as much as he did. being his size and with his mobility he can make that work pretty well, but there will eventually be big guys he runs into who can fight at all ranges

If he could work on his inside game, then has to be in with a shout for pro contender.
Probably hasn't even needed an inside game yet :lol:

A sub Klit style that could make him tricky to beat if handled properly
