So, this guy: https://boxrec.com/en/box-pro/574472

I guess it's better than nothing, and better than his last opponent.

Edit: would have been much better to have Parker - Makhmudov and Kean - Smakici...

Hell even this card sucks. I have always been a fan of the heavies and have not been able to excited for hardly any fights this year.
Please don't let me turn into that guy that says "back in my day"

If Wardley-Adeleye isn't called off, then a card of:
Fury-Ngannou (farce)
Wardley-Adeleye (banger of a fight, if you're not from the UK probably just enjoy the scrap)
Parker-Kean (will show Kean's level after the Wallin fight fell through, personally really like this fight)
Makh-Smakici (not fantastic but a showcase fight for Makh)

As a 4-fight card that's pretty good.

#14 Winner of Wallin-Gassiev
#15 Jalolov

Don’t quite get the mak v smak fight, surely that’s a round 1 KO, kabayal can’t punch and did him inside 3 rounds.

The rest is decent.

I agree.

Parker-Kean and Adeleye-Wardley are good matchups, but Smakici has no chin and Makhmudov (despite his other limitations) is a huge puncher.

Makhmudov fought a better opponent in Jonathan Rice four years ago, could they not have found someone decent for him now? Bakole, Sanchez, Miller, Franklin or Kabayel would be better.

the best thing about those fights is that we can say Mak vs Smack

i guess parker-kean might have an outside chance of being good, as kean despite glass chinned can hit. but mak-smak looks another mak-akiporji or whatever his name was

#14 Justis Huni
#15 Fabio Wardley

Agreed on the Makhmudov fight, I don’t think I ever suggested it was a good matchup. Smak won’t last until the fourth.

Looking at the rankings and thinking about the guys that are couple fights away…

it’s Amazing how these “prospects” are needing a “takem style” test. And that’s a 42 year old Takem….

Parker fought prime Takem when he was 24, need more of that attitude in the young heavyweights these days.

Elite unit….

Does make me wonder why carty is so inactive.

Bakole Vs Takam on the Fury/Ngannou undercard

Would have been much better to have Bakole v. Mak

CMCanavessi wrote: ↑19 Sep 2023, 14:40 Would have been much better to have Bakole v. Mak

Or Bakole Vs Parker and Takam Vs Kean.

Bakole takem is decent. Takem is old but looked good 6 months ago. If bakole wins it’s nice, if he destroys it’s very nice

Frank Sanchez is fighting Scott Alexander on the Canelo-Charlo card.

It's PBC in general.

Don't match against each other.

Ruiz and Ortiz are already out.. Wilder is soon.

Sanchez is at least active.
