I saw he jumped Haye in The Ring rankings (I'm not sure why... I can't see anyone on his resume who is better than 2 Guns Barrett).
How good does he look? Is he going to make some serious noise in the division in a year or two?
He's reaaaal young but comin long fast, but there's a lot of German promoted talent comin through heavyweight rankings. Boystov came in a little heavy vs. Gavern, he needs to be under 225. There's been a rumor that he will fight Chagaev after Chagaev get's a tune up fight. That'd be interesting. Also this Syrian fightin in Germany don't look bad at all named Manuel Charr.
Universum (or Spotlight, I don't really get the distinction between the two) promotes Sebastian Kober, who is supposed to be pretty okay too.
Prime Taras Bidenko is better than shot Monte Barrett, and without a doubt, Ondrej Pala would defeat the 2008-2009 version of Monte.
And the way Boytsov has destroyed his past three heavyweight opponents is impressive. No one ever did that to Bidenko before. Jason Gavern isn't a very good technical boxer, but he is durable and had never been stopped before - Boytsov knocked him down four time. He would have been stopped in the second round while being battered against the ropes, except the referee saved him with a standing eight count.
I boxrec'd him a while ago, He's either KO'd his opponent or lost, at most, one round when it went to the cards. That's a pretty solid record of performance. I'd like to see him in against someone a bit better, but like it's been said, he's young.
Check your bets thread!
I only hope Boytsov's promoters don't throw him to the "wolves" too soon. I'd like to see him fight 3-4 more times against good opposition before he gets a title shot...
He's good and he's improving.
You gotta realize he turned pro at 18 so he's still growing and learning.Like somebody said at 226 he wa a bit heavy last time out.
He is impressive against his decent opposition but has yet to setp up vs a top 10 fighter.
Time will tell.

He can make some noise especially with the way the division is now. He's got some pretty decent power
