Again it is way too early to tell, if he can mix it with the big boys, especially since Swartz looked old, sloppy and entirely disinterested, but Frenkel sure does look good for a fighter who had his pro debut less than 11 months ago. Impressive ko that actually had me worried about Swartz' health for a moment (clearly this was also a concern for everybody there - including Frenkel).

Also the fact that Frenkel was the only 'support' fighter German tv showed, demonstrates that they mean serious business with him. After all he was chosen ahead of more well known commodities such as Mads Larsen (who I would have preferred to see, but being Danish I am probably a bit biased there), Michael Trabant or indeed Hernandez. Of course it helps that Frenkel holds a German passport and that he looks (as in 'face and body') like a potential superstar.

Btw people should keep an eye out for videos of the Abraham fight. Not only was it a good scrap, but the knockout was absolutely classic.
Thanks for the update
