Amin Asikainen vs Khoren Gevor

[Guest]

This makes Arthur Abraham's KO win over Gevor more meaningful, since Khoren obviously must be a good fighter to go to Finland and impressively defeat Asikainen.

See why TheManchine didn't go to this fight. He knew Asikainen wasn't very good. He even bet against him.

Really? I guess finnish boxing is about to hit an all-time low now or what?

It's still better than it has been for years, which is pretty sad really.

I thought Gevor's pressure and unorthodox style would give Asikainen a lot of trouble but he was even tougher than I expected.

I think Amin Asikainen will knock him out in the mid rounds.

I had the mid rounds right. Gevor will probably shoot up the rankings. Asikainen is/was ranked 4th by Ring Mag. How did Helenius look on the undercard.

The biggest weakness of Asikainen is his inability to fight, or even clinch properly at close distance. It was already noticeable in his fight with Yori Boy Campas. He is still a big puncher, but keeps getting beaten whenever the other guy gets inside.
