this guy is the russian GGG. hes a beast

Knocked out Kovalev in the amateurs aswell
Damm i didn't know that....and that's with headgear :merchant:

Cloud might not be finished physically. He was looking decent until he got caught with that overhand right. Anybody else probably would've been stopped if they took that shot and the left hooks that followed in the clinch.

DLH actually trying to make these fights or using the public to sour on Allah knowing damn well the fights won't get made until Haymon boxing is up N running??


I've been saying the Peter Quillen and Rod Salka fights were smear attempts, nobody really gave a fukk about Quillen though, and they may have mistakenly turned Swift into a legit star instead of taiting him...........


Oscar is once again the loser here though because the only fighter who really got tainted and exposed was Canelo, I haven't even heard Cotto mumble his name since his struggle fight and bricked ppv numbers

Roy coming for them straps................

http://www.boxingscene.com/?m=show&opt=printable&id=82616

Former four-division champ Roy Jones Jr. continues to fight on, nearly 20 years past his peak and more than a decade beyond the end of his prime. The American superstar has now won five straight, the latest coming in a 75-second one-punch body shot knockout of Hany Atiyo in their cruiserweight fight Friday in Krasnodar, Russia.

The bout took place the day prior to a cruiserweight title fight doubleheader taking place in Moscow, to where Jones flew in to attend Saturday evening.

The co-main event saw Denis Lebedev score a two-round knockout of Pawel Kolodziej, an unbeaten contender from Poland. An overhand left was all that Lebedev needed to end the night, picking up his first win in nearly two years.

In between losses to Marco Huck (Dec. ’10) and Guillermo Jones (May ’13) – both of which came under dubious circumstances – Lebedev complied a four-fight win streak to reaffirm his stance as one of the top cruiserweights in the world. One of the wins was a knockout of Jones in the 10th and final round of their May ’11 clash in the very same venue (Dynamo Palace of Sports) as Saturday’s event.

The card in Moscow carried a theme of Russia versus Poland, with Grigory Drozd soundly outpointing Krzysztof Wlodarczyk for the cruiserweight title in the main event. Ideally, fans would love to see the winners face each other in a unification bout somewhere down the road. Such a fight would be massive in Russia or Poland.

However, Jones believes his name carries enough value to where he can grant big paydays to both fighters, thus further his own cause.

“I’m calling out any cruiserweight champion,” stated Jones (59-8. 42KOs), who was honored as the top boxer of the 1988 Olympics and has since led a Hall of Fame career in the pro ranks.

For those who wish to see him walk away from the sport, it’s clear the fighting pride of Pensacola, Florida is keen on making one more run at a belt in the cruiserweight division – the only weight class between middleweight through heavyweight in which he’s never claimed championship status.

“It can be El Diablo (Wlodarczyk, though now Drozd in light of Saturday’s result), it can be (a rematch with) Lebedev,” Jones insisted, though not without remembering where he was. “Don’t get me wrong, I like Lebedev. But I want that title.”

Jones has now fought four straight bouts overseas, including two trips to Russia in the past nine months.

He is most likely trying to make the fights since Amir and Ghost are actually signed to GBP I think.
Probably figures if he throws it out to the public maybe that will spur Khan and Ghost to not let :hayking:veto the bout.
