The Hungarian super featherweight, 22-0. (and proud IBC champion, I'm sure) http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=066239

He seems to be doing quite nicely, with a record that includes 2 wins over Chacon.

With an eye to Alex Arthur here, can I ask if anyone has seen him and how he boxes?

And what are his plans? His last fight against Chacon is noted as a WBO eliminator, and he is duly ranked #1 now. (those rankings are a real treat by the way- Arthur is #4, whilst Gomez and Sinitsin are #12 and #13. :TU:

Meanwhile, Nagy is also #1 by the EBU.

So what I'm getting at is, I have a feeling Arhtur and Nagy could meet soon. If Arthur beats Sinitsin, do you think Nagy would go for him and his title, or is Nagy going for Barrios' WBO?

(If it's the latter, EBU has Gomez at #3 behind Limmond - that could be interesting.)

Hey, are me and this guy twins?

Both of us mention the name Nagy; both fail to generate enthusiasm for our thread; both of us are still trying to learn English.

Uncanny :o

Janos Nagy is a good stocky southpaw that can aspire to get a WBO title. He was lucky to win twice against Pablo Chacon in Hungary. He's not in the class of the best boxers in the division. He'll give Barrios a fight and if it's in Hungary he might even win.

Interesting note: Nagy lost in the 1996 European Championships to Scott Harrison 13-2 but Harrison failed to qualify and Nagy got an extra chance and reached the quarters in Atlanta - where he lost to Pablo Chacon.

Nagy is the Hungarian version of Sven Ottke and is usually fed bums or guys who are simply over the hill. He may have talent but how can it show through if his management dont step up his opposition.
To put this guy into perspective he was lined up to fight Samuel Kedebe after his facile showing against Scott Harrison before he got injured
