Has anybody seen this guy in action lately? he's now 35-1 (32) and just got a couple of pretty good wins over Bruce Seldon and Saul Montana. Last i've seen of him was beating Sherman Williams on points on C5 a while back and he looked pretty basic, has he improved into a contender or just been well matched?

Very much Great white hype.... gets a lot of love due to his size and skin colour... can obviously bang but a first round KO to an "unknown" doesnt bode well

He's got good pwoer and is bout 7 foot... With the heavyweight division open at the moment if you have a knockout punch you have a chance. :D

I'd question whether he gets love due to his color. If so he'd be TV here all the time and they'd be talking him up. I can't recall the last time he was on - if ever.

The Seldon fight for one was a case of being well (mis)matched. Seldon looked truely awful, made Toney or Bowe look like annorexic 6 year old, and was just dragged away from KFC for $$$.

That said he obviously has a punch, but anyone truly world class (if such a thing exists at heavyweight right now) should school him if he attempted to step things up
