If I'm honest, Crappy fight for Quillin on another undercard. Guy can't catch a break. Either he should leave GB & Al Haymon or move up in weight because GB & Al aren't doing him any favors at 160. He struggled against Rosado in October 2013; first fight back in 6 months and he faces Konecny with Stevens & Macklin calling him out. Maybe he's waiting on an undisclosed big fight?
This is a step back from Rosado & N'Dam.
Many Fishermen would kick your arse. An angry sea is a much scarier proposition than a ring full of Tysons. Meanwhile Quillin is treading water and rely on doggy paddling through the shallow end of the kiddy pool. Time to take those armbands (waterwings) off.
He's a decent European level boxer. He ain't world level.
Have never seen this Konecny, he's lost to the two names I recognize, seems like a really weird choice. Only upside to his record is that he's never been stopped, which could mean he'll give Quillin a tricky fight if he's got the skills. Then again he's 35 and hasn't fought overseas, could just be collecting a little retirement money.
He might not be shot but he is a step backward in competition. It's a stay busy fight.
You were trying to say Finito was biased and Konecny was worse than what Golovkin had fought recently :confused: I disagree. Stevens was sh-t :p a loss to Brinkley can do that and a string of KOs over limited fighters won't change that. Close to world level? Please :-\ I also doubt Adamu would beat Konecny ;D Tht's the reason ;)
This is a crap fight. No need to compare it to anyone else's fights. It's worse than Rosado, Quillin's last opponent. Rosado would beat Konecny, and it's worse than N'Dam. Clearly, it's a stay busy fight until something big opens up. I just can't imagine what they have in mind. GB has nothing at middleweight. Maybe Canelo/Lara/Angulo move up?
I disagree. I think its a fight to make Quillin look good. Its an easy win for him. I dont think its Stevens because Quillin will struggle to look good against him, like he did against Rosado and will add more value to GGGs stock then his. Again just to point out Konecny is a small light middle, Quillin a big middle. Its a complete mismatch.
Stevens has super middle weight power and has decent skills. Can you name 20 middleweights who are better then him? If not he is in the top 20 which is close to wprld level. Hes borderline top 10 for me at the minute.
No where top 10, maybe 15 - 20ish, you have the top 10 then -
Danny Jacobs
Billy Joe Saunders
Ryoto Muruta
Jarrod Fletcher
Matt Korobov
Lukas Konecny
Brian Vera
Anthony Mundine
Dmitri Chudinov
Sergio Mora
Dimitri Pirog if he's still fighting
Konecny is better than Rosado in my eyes :-\ I'm not saying I like this fight. I would have preferred Jacobs ;D
