Vyacheslav Glazkov seems to have fallen off the Earth since his knee injury. Has anyone heard anything about a return? I could have sworn I heard something at the beginning of 2018, then nothing since.
When I saw the video of Darren Barker looking out his hotel window to see Charles Martin doing wind sprints in the streets of London. I thought to myself, how did I ever bet against this guy?
All I ever had to look at was Charles Martin’s tattoos to know that he wouldn’t ever be anything. I’ve seen prison tat’s Put on with a bic that looked better. How do you not get those covered up once you get your first boxing check? How much did he make off selling his IBF belt? Lmao
Should have been easy money. I regret not putting money on Martin haha

He's a truck driver now. His knee injury was a preexisting injury he hid from everyone
Kathy Duva talks about him right here

Cheers for link, man. Only had the first bit of your reply before. Kinda explains maybe why he's always looked worse than he should have done. Ha. Shit. kinda feel bad now, been slagging this dude off forever. Guess I mistook stoicism for indifference.

Thanks for the link. Green on recharge. I didn't know that he had a ****ed up knee going into the fight.
I thought you were being sarcastic when you said he was a truck driver. Jesus.

You know he'd be that trucker that always drives at precisely 50mph on the freeway and none of the other truckers will sit with at the truckstop.:lol1:
Kinda a shame really. I mean he actually does/did frustrate me cos he had the skills of talented amateur yet somehow managed to transform himself into a professional who was just... *shrugs* .. meh. And his monotonous voice. And something about his face or his manner. Like he was OK about not being as good as he could be. IDK.
:lol1: It ain't like me to actually take a dislike to a fighter, especially one as nondescript as Slava, but somehow I do.
oh, I get it. I'm just looking at it as the more talented HW's the better.
yeah, Like I found an article from Duva saying he should be ready....for April 2018

Yeah. I have words. His awe inspiring banality provokes a species of oxymoronically insipid rage in me that I've never experienced in any other context.:lol1:
EDIT: Let's see though. Mmmm. Nothing. A thread from ESB around March basically asking the same sort of thing. No news current or from earlier in the year. Like you say basically he's just disappeared to all intents...
