only Yoka is decent and he hasnt been tested vs anyone elite yet .
Boxing is not a big sport here whilst rugby / footie / tennis / basketball etc are much higher profile .

They like to march or strike tho :OhYes:

11-0 records are nothing compared to having 2 amateur gold medals, which I'm assuming you weren't aware of. Although, he's fought lots of top 50 pros, with another top 25 opponent on the horizon. He is undoubtedly heading for a top 10 spot, but there is some uncertainty whether he's a future champion.

The next best French heavyweight who hasn't been mentioned yet is probably low-tier gatekeeper Newfel Ouatah.

Djamili-Dini Aboudou represented France at the 2017 superheavyweight world amateur championships, and he hasn't turned pro yet (not a good amateur record even if he did). Mourad Aliev represented France in 2019 and the 2021 Olympics, and he hasn't turned pro either.

Whoa whoa whoa. Don't teach a man to fish. GIVE a man a fish. That way he'll stay dependent on you and think you're a hero.
