Know nothing about his opponent but good for him making that transition and fulfilling a dream of his.

He wont be a top guy or anything like that but thumbs up for making the transition.

There was a big size mismatch and probably a big talent mismatch also.

I am sure Kendall was given the edge, but who really cares it is great that he made the transition at such a late age. But really isnt all of that surprising most boxers play basketball to enhance footwork. Still none the less cool job on his part he gets my thumbs up.


Plus he is a 6'5 cruiser INSANE and the guy he was fighting was 5'8

Yeah, that's the first thing I noticed when I was looking up information about the fight, before it took place.

6'5" Cruiser...and I thought Diego Corrales was tall for his weight division.

its not like he wasnt still good enough to come off the bench for an NBA team.

Unfortunately Kendall didnt start early or perhaps he could have actually been a decent contender. I dont blame him he wouldnt be getting paid what he got paid in the NBA. But I bet he will be hyped up and get decent pay days off of his name. First time he steps it up he will get starched.

They mentioned it on a local Cleveland news network and showed clips, I dont think it was televised but rather a local just there to catch it with a camera.

He showed decent footwork, B- class hand speed and average power. Nothing to get excited about.

Did he used the killer-crossover lefthook to the body? Or the fall-away uppercut? :confused:
