I appreciate what you're saying and agree that he smothered his work a bit but it's his FIRST fucking fight!

Sultan Ibragimov? You're comparing my boy to a former world champion!? I'm actually surprised you're allowed to inform people about the happenings of boxing if you're making statements like Sultan Ibragimov would make him look silly - Anybody with half a brain cell knows he would at this stage in their respective careers but you don't know what the future will hold.

Would you have banked that Hopkins would be where he is at after his first pro fight? No, so don't come in here with your holier than thou attitude unless you're some kind of boxing mystic meg which you certainly ain't (aren't you the guy that said Baldomir would 'steamroll' Floyd Mayweather before they fought?)

Also read what I write fully before giving your opinion. I said hopefully he can work towards a 'title'! Where did I mention a WORLD title? It's too early to tell how he will improve for those kind of talks.

I thought age might come up. Fair enough Tam but the age thing is a non factor in my opinion because he had maybe 15 amateur fights tops so he is not battle worn in the slightest. He lives a straight edge lifestyle and doesn't smoke, drink or anything. (we've seen what that can do for longevity, look at Hopkins)

Finally, the guy he beat hasn't been knocked out in 2 years and a two time ABA finalist in Tom Dallas couldn't get the job done a couple months ago either and Sinan Samil Sam took 2 rounds to do it. A great start for Larry and this despite him being nervous. Give him a chance, it's one fight.

Shame really Daxx, you gave me my first few cc's in this place but I'm not quite sure where you get off on this new bullshit attitude. Constructive criticism is one thing but you need to get off your high horse. You might be right all along but let's wait and see shall we before you get your knickers in a bunch! I'll chat to you again when he picks up his first title..

Sorry I did not feed you in posting your "Friend" with hype.....

You stated Have you seen a HW recently that looks like this?

I asked in what way....

The Imbragimov comment was due to the fact that he is a big guy who really just seems like that nothing more then a big guy...

It is easy to look the way he did against a guy with 30+ losses on his record......

First fight or not his camp should teach him the meaning of the word "Jab"......

At 30 yrs old with so much more needed to develop he will run out of time before he can.....

I have seen dozens of heavyweight fighters who looked more impressive in their debuts.....And Fizzled out.........

The 3 punches he was hit with he paused and once even took a step back (Those were not hard punches)...So that tells me he has no chin....

But if it makes you feel better..

He looked awesome...This guy is the biggest threat out there to Vitaly right now and it is only his debuet......His opponent was fantastic but Larry boy just out shined him.....

Feel better now...So save the name calling and the whole knickers in a bunch crap...and the insulting of me being a writer...You sound like a bitter little cry baby.....

Just because you post something on someone and they are your friend do not expect nothing but praise when you ask questions like have you seen a HW recently that looks like this,,,,Just post what you want..

"Please tell me my buddy will be the next big thing'

And when the opponent is 2-33 with his only wins over guys with an 0-7 and 1-13 yet has been getting beaten by guys with 0-0 records across the board.....I put nothing into nthe performance..


And please do pick this up again when he claims his first title...And make sure it is a legit one....

So I might as well consider this conversation closed
